Actor Channing Tatum has forcefully shut down widespread online speculation that he was operating a secret Instagram account to post comments about his former fiancée, Zoë Kravitz. Taking to social media on Monday, Tatum dismissed the rumors as "f***in hilarious," expressing disbelief that anyone would think he spent his time in such a manner.
Tatum's Blunt Denial
On Monday, Tatum directly addressed the swirling online theories on his Instagram Stories. Without explicitly naming the alleged profile, he wrote, "Yo, I truly can't believe you all think this is what I'm doing with my free time. F***in hilarious." He also questioned the logic behind the claims, adding, "Also, why would I follow a burner account if I didn't want people to connect me to it? WTF Come on." The actor concluded by unequivocally stating his position: "But if I really need to say it, I only have one IG account @channingtatum." His comments were made after screenshots of the alleged account's activity gained significant traction across social media platforms.
The Viral Account in Question
The speculation began after screenshots of an Instagram profile, identified as @bidness_nonya, started circulating across various social media platforms. This account reportedly had no original posts visible and used a butterfly image as its profile picture. A key detail fueling the rumors was that Channing Tatum's official Instagram account was, for a period, reportedly the only follower of @bidness_nonya. This connection led many fans to believe Tatum was secretly behind the profile, which allegedly made comments referencing Kravitz and her current partner, Harry Styles. Following the widespread attention, Tatum subsequently unfollowed the account, and @bidness_nonya was later deleted entirely.
Relationship Background
Channing Tatum and Zoë Kravitz initially met while collaborating on Blink Twice, the feature film marking Kravitz's debut as a director. Their romantic relationship began in 2021, and the couple became engaged in October 2023. However, their engagement concluded, and they parted ways in 2024. Kravitz was later romantically linked to musician Harry Styles, with initial dating speculation surfacing in 2025. By 2026, their relationship appeared to have deepened, with reports indicating a more serious commitment after Kravitz was photographed wearing a significant diamond ring.
