When fantasizing about a future with the partner of your dreams, most people don’t imagine settling down with someone previously married. Ending such serious commitments isn’t easy, and if the love of your life shares children with their ex, their co-parenting schedule will always be a part of the equation in your relationship. Nevertheless, there are advantages to falling for someone who’s already settled down and figured out what they’re capable of giving and hope to receive as a partner. One celebrity couple using their past marriages to guide them into a healthier, happier future together is Zoë Kravitz and fiancé, Channing Tatum.
The actors are best known for projects like High Fidelity and Magic Mike respectively, but off-screen their style, good looks and warm energy keep fans gravitating towards them. Kravitz has been linked to a handful of creatives throughout her time in the public eye, from Birds of America co-star Ben Foster to kissing Canada’s favorite rapper, Drake, at a Beyoncé concert in 2013. Tatum, on the other hand, has led a mostly monogamous lifestyle; he married his Step Up co-star in 2009 before separating after almost a decade together. Keep reading to explore the dating history of Zoë Kravitz and Channing Tatum, plus catch up on everything the lovers have said about their upcoming wedding!

In her early 20s, Kravitz was a star on the rise with the strong reputations of her parents, Lenny Kravitz and Lisa Bonet, backing her. As she expanded her acting resume, the black-haired beauty made headlines for cozying up with co-stars over the years. In 2008 it was Ben Foster who caught her eye, but after some hot and heavy PDA, their flame ultimately fizzled out. After that came Ezra Miller, who Kravitz worked with on Beware the Gonzo in 2010. Cameras caught them kissing at the time, but it was clear the actress was still single when she hung out with Chris Pine at the Met Gala that year.
One of Kravitz’s longest celebrity partnerships was with Gossip Girl alum Penn Badgley, who she was with from 2011 until mid-2013. “It wasn’t a sad breakup, [it] just wasn’t working [but] ended on good terms,” an insider told Us Weekly . While moving on from that, the 35-year-old danced the night away at a Beyoncé concert – where she also shared a smooch with Drake. In 2017, Kravitz finally addressed the viral moment on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen , explaining, “We hung out for a minute, but we are very good friends.”
Who Was Zoë Kravitz’s First Husband?
Before she was married for the first time, the Los Angeles native connected with Twin Shadow (real name George Lewis Jr.) while covering Sade’s “No Ordinary Love.” They made some red carpet appearances together in 2015, but it wasn’t meant to last. Instead, Kravitz moved on to Karl Glusman in 2016 and he popped the question two years later. They wed in Paris in June 2019, but only 18 months later, she filed for divorce. Proceedings were finalized as of August 2021, around which time the Batman starlet popped out with her new man – Channing Tatum.

As a certified Hollywood hunk who can dance, act and keep us laughing, Tatum could win over virtually any woman he wanted. It didn’t take long for Step Up co-star Jenna Dewan to steal his heart in 2006, and by 2008, he romantically proposed to her during a vacation to Hawaii. The next year was their wedding, and in 2013, their daughter Everly Tatum was born. After nearly a decade of being recognized as “couple goals” by their fans, Dewan and her co-parent announced their separation in 2018.
“We have lovingly chosen to separate as a couple,” they wrote via Instagram. “We fell feeply in love so many years ago and have had a magical journey together. Absolutely nothing has changed about how much we love one another, but love is a beautiful adventure that is taking us on a different path now.”
Interestingly, the next lady who caught Tatum’s eye looked very similar to Dewan – British songstress Jessie J. They sparked relationship rumors as he attended some of her concerts in 2018, but by the end of 2019 the father of one was ready to embrace his status as a single man (but only until Kravitz came along).

While they’ve managed to keep a lot of their romance out of the public eye, since they got engaged in 2023, curiosity around Zoë Kravitz and Channing Tatum has grown considerably. In May 2024, Lenny Kravitz spoke with Radio 2 about the happy couple, suggesting a wedding date has already been picked. “He’s a really great guy, he was raised well, so he’s got manners, he’s charming, he’s a soulful human being, and so he’s become part of the family quite quickly,” the “Fly” hitmaker said of his future son-in-law. “He fits and they’re in love. We’re going to have a wedding next year.”
Amid the premiere of their latest project, Blink Twice (which Kravitz directed her other half in), the lovers finally got to clear up her father’s comments about their big day. They attended the premiere together on Aug. 8 looking dapper as ever in black ensembles. “To get to create something with someone that you love is probably one of the most gratifying things other than having a kid with somebody I think,” he told People of their collaboration. “It’s one of those…you truly are creating something from nothing, and it’s just like creating a marriage or creating something where you’re like, everything that we are is going into this thing and you want to make it with people that you love.” Meanwhile, she spoke with Esquire about wedding planning, clarifying that there’s no set date just yet. “It’s literally something we’ve said in passing,” Kravitz told the outlet. “Like, maybe I said, ‘Next year would be cool.'”
