The Magic Mike star, Channing Tatum and his wife Jenna Dewan Tatum have declared in an Instagram post that they are getting divorced after 8 years of marriage.
The duo, married after meeting on the set of the 2006 movie Step Up, announced in a joint statement, “We’re living in an incredible moment in time, but it’s also a time where truth can easily get distorted into ‘alternative facts’. So we want to share the truth so you know that if you didn’t read it here then it’s most certainly fiction.
“We have lovingly chosen to separate as a couple. We fell deeply 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 different paths for now.
“There are no secrets nor salacious events at the root of our decision — just two best-friends realising it’s time to take some space and help each other live the most joyous, fulfilled lives as possible. We are still a family and will always be loving dedicated parents to Everly. We won’t be commenting beyond this, and we thank you all in advance for respecting our family’s privacy.”
Their fans are shocked and hurt by this news. Hearts all over the internet are broken
