Channing Tatum has made things red carpet official with his girlfriend, Inka Williams. The 45-year-old actor stepped out with the 26-year-old Australian model at the Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle premiere in Los Angeles on Sept. 9, where they posed alongside his 12-year-old daughter, Everly, and one of her friends. It was a full family moment and a big debut for the couple.
Tatum shares 10-year-old Everly with his ex-wife Jenna Dewan, and having them on the red carpet together is a huge deal. Tatum has always made it clear that Everly is his priority. He recently opened up about how hard it is to be away from her, with him and Dewan living apart.
He told Variety in an interview published this month, "It’s really tough not to have your daughter half the time. I wish I could just have her all the time.”
Their red carpet debut was also on Williams' 26th birthday. On her special day, the Step Up star shared photos of herself on his IG story, making it clear that he's in love. In one of the scenes, she rode behind him on a dirt bike, snapping a selfie. "Happiest day of birth to my RIDER! Love you so," he wrote over the snap.
He shared a snap of them looking loved up on the beach, sharing a sweet kiss.
They've now officially rang in each other's birthdays together. Tatum turned 45 on April 26, and she shared images on her IG story gushing about him. “Happy life to the handsomest, kindest, funniest, stupidest, most gorgeous human ever!!!” she wrote in her caption.
The model shared her love and appreciation for his impact on her life, writing, “Merci for making life beautiful and fun.” She ended the post with “JTM trop fort,” which is French slang for “I love you.” The photos she shared showed the pair laughing, kissing, and hanging out with their dogs.
Tatum and Williams were first linked back in February after being spotted at a pre-Oscars party, and since then, their romance has only grown. The couple reportedly met through mutual friends.
Of course, the elephant in the room is their nearly 20-year age gap. She is closer in age to his daughter than to himself. But a source told PEOPLE in March, "She has her own life. She's young, but seems older."
The relationship comes less than a year after Tatum’s split from Zoë Kravitz, whom he dated from 2021 to October 2024. The two were even engaged at one point, but have since moved on.
Kravitz has now moved on to Harry Styles, with the couple making things official in late August.
