Zoë Kravitz and Channing Tatum may have ended their relationship, but there are no hard feelings between them. Even after their breakup, Zoë spoke highly of her ex in an interview with ELLE for their March 2025 cover story.
When asked if their split affected how she felt about her movie Blink Twice, which she directed and worked on with Channing, she said,
“Not at all. I love this thing that we made together, and I care for him very much.”
She explained that she was happy they had the chance to work together and that she still feels grateful for the experience. Even though they are no longer together, Zoë’s feelings about the movie and their time together remain positive.
Zoë Praises Channing’s Talent
During the interview, Zoë also spoke about Channing’s skills as an actor. She was glad to hear people praise his performance in Blink Twice, saying,
“Even when you bring up how great his performance is, it warms my heart to hear that, and I’m so happy that all of it happened. I just feel so grateful that we got to go on that journey together.”
She continued to support Channing and his career, expressing excitement for what he will do next.
“He has so much more coming, and I think he’s in a place as an actor where he’s feeling really confident and people are seeing different sides of him.”
Zoë believes Channing has a lot to offer and is eager for audiences to see more of his work.
Why Zoë Kravitz and Channing Tatum Broke Up
Zoë and Channing started dating in August 2021, and by October 2023, they were engaged. However, a year later, they decided to call it off.
According to People, the reason for their breakup was that they were at different stages in life. There was no drama or bad blood—just a realization that they were not the right fit for each other at that time.
A source told Page Six in November 2024 that the former couple had remained in touch and had no hard feelings. The insider said,
“They really just grew apart and decided it was best for them to go their separate ways.”
Despite ending their engagement, Zoë still spoke about Channing with warmth and appreciation, showing that their breakup was based on mutual understanding rather than conflict.

Although the post was later deleted, it showed how deeply he respected and admired Zoë, both as a director and as a person.
