Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan are splitting some checks equally.
More than one year after the exes finalized their divorce following a six-year legal battle, in which Tatum’s continued earnings from the “Magic Mike” franchise were at the center, details about their settlement have been revealed.
Tatum and Dewan — who tied the knot in 2009 before separating in 2018 — will receive 50 percent of each other’s retirement benefits earned during their marriage as determined under the Screen Actors Guild-Producers Pension Plan for Motion Picture Actors, according to the Nov. 26 court filing obtained by E! News.
The monetary benefit is calculated by dividing the pension credit accrued during their marriage by the total pension credits earned in their respective careers. Payments will begin on a date determined by the payee but cannot start earlier than the earner’s earliest retirement date as defined by their retirement plan.
Although much of their divorce settlement hasn’t been made public, Dewan and Tatum — who share 12-year-old daughter Everly — both waived spousal support and agreed to work out any future custody disagreements privately with a judge, per docs obtained by E!.

Dewan and Tatum — who debuted his relationship with Inka Williams in April 2025 following his breakup from ex-fiancée Zoë Kravitz — had been navigating a lengthy court battle since the Rookie actress filed for divorce in 2018. In April 2024, she filed a petition seeking a portion of her ex’s total profits, according to court documents obtained by E! at the time.
Dewan’s attorneys alleged that they had acquired the “Magic Mike” intellectual property together during their marriage. With the franchise — which was, in part, inspired by Tatum’s experience as a male stripper — growing into a “multi-million cultural phenomenon,” her team argued that its earnings should be considered “community in character.”
For Tatum’s part, at the time, his legal team claimed that Dewan — who is also mom to Callum, 5, and Rhiannon, 17 months, with fiancé Steve Kazee — had been “involved in all aspects of community investments, opportunities and transactions” regarding the 2012 film.
One month after Dewan’s court filing, the “21 Jump Street” actor slammed his ex’s accusations, saying in a May filing obtained by E!, “I have never denied Petitioner her share of any community assets or income. I have always agreed for Petitioner to have an interest in the Magic Mike intellectual property and related entities.”
Instead, he argued that Dewan, 44, had been using the claim “delay the processing of the case and increase the expense of litigation.”
Despite Tatum and Dewan’s contentious divorce, the duo has since attempted to mend their relationship.
“Jenna and I are good now, but it was a painful break to have that fall apart, especially being so young,” the 45-year-old told Variety in September. “We tried to keep it together, tried for a year and a half. Not to go into all that. It’s in the past.”
Zoë Kravitz is reflecting on her relationship with ex-fiancé Channing Tatum. Speaking to ELLE for their March 2025 cover story, the actress shared her gratitude for their time together. The former couple had recently collaborated on the 2024 thriller “Blink Twice,” which was also Kravitz’s directorial debut.
