Is Channing Tatum beefing with his ex-wife’s partner Steve Kazee?

Channing Tatum & Zoe Kravitz have broken up and called off their engagement. From the looks of things, it was pretty sudden, and yet there doesn’t seem to be a huge amount of drama between them. They were together through the promotion of Blink Twice this summer, and they were last seen together in early October. Given Zoe’s history, I’m open to the idea that she has a jumpoff waiting in the wings, but we haven’t heard anything about that. People Magazine had this little update after they broke the story on Tuesday:

Channing Tatum and Zoë Kravitz’s split was a recent one.

The former couple broke up just last weekend, PEOPLE has learned. As for what caused it, a source says, “They haven’t been on the same page and grew apart.”

Multiple sources confirmed to PEOPLE on Tuesday, Oct. 29, that Tatum, 44, and Kravitz, 35, had called off their engagement and gone their separate ways after three years of dating.

Reps for both stars have not responded to requests for comment from PEOPLE.

“They haven’t been on the same page and grew apart.” Eh. He seemed to really adore her. It feels notable that they split just two months after Blink Twice came out too. That happens all the time when costars or coworkers fall for each other over the course of a project, then their relationship limps along until the promotion is completely done.

Meanwhile, here’s a weird addendum. You know how Channing’s ex-wife Jenna Dewan moved on with a guy named Steve Kazee? Well, right after Channing and Zoe’s split announcement, Steve posted a big string of “HAHAs” on his IG Stories. People were like “WTF” and “weird.” Now he claims that it wasn’t about his current partner’s ex-husband at all.

Steve Kazee is attempting to clear the air. The actor and singer initially posted a string of “HAHA” on his Instagram Stories Tuesday, Oct. 29, shortly following the news that his fiancée Jenna Dewan’s ex-husband, Channing Tatum, had split from his fiancée, Zoë Kravitz, leading some to speculate that he was reacting to the news.

In a follow-up post on Wednesday, Oct. 30, Kazee, 49, wrote, “A guy can’t laugh about a houseplant Tik Tok in todays world I see … “, referring to the video he’d shared soon after the “HAHA” post the previous day.

He went on to post a photo of a droopy plant, writing over the snapshot, “See? It’s funny because it’s relatable. Get a life.”

The Tony Award winner then shared an image and video of a smaller, dried-up potted plant, illustrating his experience of filling up a coffee maker with water before giving his plants water, a practice the TikTok video was poking fun at.

I don’t believe him, although I do believe that this guy probably doesn’t understand how to manage his social media. Does that make sense? He probably was being snarky about Channing and Zoe’s split, but he didn’t realize that he was putting that sh-t on his Stories?

    I actually believe him, I mean why would he care? And its Channing Tatum who can get someone else by the days end if he wanted.

    • NikkiK says:

      He’s so full of it. I mean come on, you choose the day the ex-husband of your fiancé announcing his split from his current fiance to post a meme that references an email that Channing is well known for?

    • susiecue says:

      Did you see the stories? There’s no way he’s telling the truth. He’s trying to gaslight us into thinking we made something out of nothing, but it’s very obvious he was being petty and then tried to backpedal.

  2. girl_ninja says:

    He knew he was putting it onto stories. He and Jenna do not like Channing. She shared that infamous photo of Nicole Kidman leaving her lawyer’s office after the finality of her divorce from Tom Cruise.

    Channing is not liked by them.

    • Formal Gumby says:

      Oh wow, if that’s the case, that’s really tacky of them. I mean, it was tacky of Channing to allegedly try to deny her her investment in Magic Mike; if he was able to bring it to life because of their shared money, then he oughtn’t have allegedly tried to cut her out of its profits or hide money (allegedly). If I recall correctly, that’s what their lengthy divorce was all about.

      Having said that, tho, I don’t like tacky behavior from either party when they’ve got kids to raise. Though I guess in the grand scheme, this isn’t the worst thing ever, so whatevs.

  3. It Really Is You, Not Me says:

    Jenna Dewan and Channing Tatum just finalized the financial aspects of their divorce after Channing held out for years over her share of the Magic Mike franchise. So Steve Kazee has reason not to like Channing .

  4. Dee(2) says:

    Nah he was being shady and thought he was going to get a different response than dude that’s pathetic. I wish people stopped responding to stuff immediately on social media. if him and Jenna hate Channing they can bask in their glee ( should be careful not to tempt fate though), but this is type of stuff that’s left for the group chat. Posting it on social media when you are with a celebrity, are a celebrity, tangentially related to a celebrity or talking about a celebrity is going to get you too much attention that you should not want.

    • Lens says:

      Yeah he did it purposefully and should realize people in the general public don’t think of Channing in the same negative way he does. Even if they did, it was a pretty bratty thing to do.

    • lucy2 says:

      Exactly. I know they have good reason to be unhappy with Channing, but this is petty and immature. Channing and Jenna have a child together too, be the bigger person and then gloat privately.

  5. Enny says:

    He has a kinda douchey haircut. That’s all I have to add to this discussion.

  6. yipyip says:

    Take the high road at least publicly buddy.
    This is not a good look for him or Jenna.

    He has an ugly haircut in that one pic.
    Jenna looks great in the blue/black gown.
    But the boob flashing trend needs to come to an end IMO. That must be taped or glued up. And the implants outline are so clear.

    • Barbara says:

      Since she’s been pregnant a couple of times in the last few years, I don’t think those are implants. And Kazee should be careful about commenting on someone’s breakup when he’s likely to get it back if he and Jenna break up.

  7. Cheshire Sass says:

    When you share a child, or are in a relationship with someone who shares a child with an ex partner, you should always maintain some sort of public decorum for the sake of the child(ren). That Kazee post is the epitome of tacky immaturity if it actually is directed at Tatum. Who knows, it could be a lot of nothing; then made to inflame by click bait mongers.

    • BQM says:

      Exactly. Cackle privately if you want but Channing is the father of your de facto stepdaughter. Not classy or considerate at all.

  8. Hell Nah! says:

    I do believe his mocking laughter was directed at Channing’s breakup. Not at all classy, buddy, and very immature. He should be careful…his relationship with Jenna may not go the distance as we’ve all seen that nothing is guaranteed in that space. A buttwipe thing to put out there and whether he considered it or not, this is not a good look for him or Jenna.

    • Formal Gumby says:

      Agreed. And I want him to explain what was so pants-splittingly funny about the damn plant to necessitate all those “haha’s”. Seriously. Explain the gut-busting funny-ness about the plant. We’d love to join you in this joke of the century about the plant.

      • Dani says:

        It does seem a bit shady what he wrote, but no disrespect, he doesn’t owe you or me any explanations for why he did it.

  9. Amy says:

    Jenna’s got a bad picker, like JLo 😬 Also, keep it in the group chat, dude. Now the world knows you’re an asshole.

  10. Spikey says:

    What I do not understand is why Jenna is still engaged. She’s already had 2 children from this guy, what are they waiting for? I know a lot of famous people seem to do this and I still don’t understand. If you don’t want to marry them, they why say you’re engaged…
    for years?

    • Danka says:

      The divorce from CT hasn’t been finalised yet so she couldn’t get married again. I remember reading somewhere that was part of the beef between CT and the new guy.

      • Lady Rae says:

        I think she could get married as they did that bifurcated divorce thing but can’t claim alimony if she is married to someone else.
