bitchy | Channing Tatum and his girlfriend Inka Williams go Instagram official

In late February, Channing Tatum attended a pre-Oscars party with his new girlfriend, 25-year-old model Inka Williams. It was somewhat noteworthy because his ex-fiance, Zoe Kravitz, was there too. Channing and Zoe had broken up four months before his official debut with Inka, whom he reportedly met through friends. Things got quiet from the couple other than occasionally being papped while out shopping. Their relationship must be going well, though, because they are now Instagram-official. Channing turned 45 on Saturday, April 26, and Inka celebrated him with an Instagram stories collage of “PDA-filled” pictures with a sappy birthday note.

Channing Tatum and Inka Williams have made their romance social-media official. The model shared a collage of PDA-filled photos to her Instagram Story featuring herself and the actor in honor of his 45th birthday on Saturday, April 26. Among the snaps were one of the two cuddling as Tatum planted a kiss on Williams, 25, as well as a Polaroid of the pair goofing off, photos with dogs, the actor lounging in the sun and more.

“Happy life to the handsomest, kindest, funniest, stoopidest most gorgeous human ever !!!” Williams wrote atop the post. “Merci for making life beautiful and fun.”

She concluded with “JTM trop fort,” which is French slang for, “I love you.”

Tatum, who split from his now-ex-fiancée Zoë Kravitz back in October 2024, first turned heads with Williams when they attended a pre-Oscars party together in Los Angeles on Feb. 28. Days after that joint appearance, a source told PEOPLE that the pair had been “seeing” each other romantically, noting that they “met through friends.”

“She’s great,” the insider added of Williams. “She has her own life. She’s young, but seems older.”

The following month, Tatum was seen holding hands with the Australian model during a shopping trip in West Hollywood, California.

Tatum, who shares 11-year-old daughter Everly with ex-wife Jenna Dewan, began dating Kravitz in 2021 after she cast him in her directorial debut Blink Twice, which was released in 2024. Despite their split, the former couple plan to work together on an upcoming project titled Alpha Gang. Multiple outlets first reported news that Tatum and Kravitz, 36, were cast in that movie the same day PEOPLE confirmed their breakup in October.

A source told PEOPLE on March 4 that “Channing’s doing well” and “[Inka] makes him happy,” while also noting “he’s reuniting with Zoë later this spring for another movie project. It shouldn’t be too awkward — they ended things on okay terms.”

First things first: Happy birthday to Channing. For his birthday, I’ll be nice and to forgo giving a side-eye to their age gap. It’s also cool that the post was for his birthday and not an attention grab to draw headlines away from something/someone else. Now that the seal has been broken, I wonder if they’ll both start sharing a lot more of one another on their respective social media pages going forward. I did a deepish dive on Inka’s Instagram page. She’s certainly very pretty. I can’t quite figure out who she looks like, but she has qualities that remind me of Maya Hawke.

The French phrases on the post made me wonder if Inka is of French-descent, so I looked it up. She was actually born in Australia and raised in Bali. In addition to modeling, she’s also an entrepreneur who owns a clothing company that was inspired by the clothing her mother used to make for her while growing up. That’s pretty cool. It’s called ‘she is i’ (all lowercase). The clothing is very feminine, with a lot of lacy designs. Anyway, I hope they had a nice day together and that he got to celebrate with Everly, too.
