News broke yesterday that Channing Tatum and Zoë Kravitz have ended their engagement after three years together. While there were many heartbroken fans, people began to speculate if Tatum's ex-wife, Jenna Dewan's fiancé, Steve Kazee, was laughing at the situation.

Dewan and Kazee got engaged in February 2020, just weeks before welcoming their son Callum. They recently welcomed their second child, Rhiannon Lee Kathryn Kazee, in June.
Although Dewan and Tatum split six years ago, their divorce wasn’t finalized until September 2024.

One key point of the negotiations was earnings from Tatum's Magic Mike franchise, which Dewan's lawyers argued involved community effort and marital funds.
