Channing Tatum Demands Ex-Wife Jenna Dewan Not Be Awarded Spousal Support

Team Chan.

Anyone who is stupid enough not to wait out the ten year rule for a marriage with children deserves this punishment.

He's a multi millionaire, is he really kicking up a fuss about paying for his kid?

Read the article R3 .

Don’t fuck up like I did, sweetheart!

Jenna is a greedy slut. But overall it’s a lesson to never get married.

Why shouldn't she have married him r6? She made out well, he (with her help) was very successful and she made millions alongside him. They seem to be arguing over the final crumbs of the millions here, she wants a bit more than he feels she deserves. But she's already been handed a ton of $$ (not undeservedly).

[quote] She made out well, he (with her help) was very successful and she made millions alongside him.

R7 What help did she give him that was substantially more than his hardworking agents and managers? He was already a rising star when they met. He has charisma and charm on screen while she severely lacks both and is forgettable as an actress. Before Channing, she was known as a backup dancer and Justin Timberlake's former side piece. She was NEVER gonna be a bigger star than him and the millions she made was with his help, not hers. You got it backward.

Seems like the one holding everything up is Ms. I Need More $$$. The fuck does she expect? He is paying nearly.everything for the kid. She can't get spousal support in perpetuity. Dumb cluck. There should be a special fast track court for this bs. People should not be able to drag their feet on this shit.

[quote]She can't get spousal support in perpetuity.

She can if he was stupid enough to divorce her with two children before the 10 year rule.

A relative of mine spent four years divorcing his wife after being married ten years with no children. Every time they seemed to come to an agreement, she backed out and asked for more. In the end, they spent $1 million on legal fees and she walked away with two thirds of his assets.

There was no prenup. They were both well off. She had told him at the time, having a prenup is getting off on the wrong foot.

Poor Channing should submit a declaration saying his last two movies bombed and his earning power is severely diminished.

And if Jenna had 2 babies post-marriage with another man, why the hell does Channing have to take care of her???

Very few of your dump cunts can read. Her argument is that she gets 50% of the Magic Mike profits made during their time together. This isn't about child support you stupid shits. She has a good argument because there's a FUCKING LAW. But yeah, a greedy bitch.

Actually no. Her argument is that she is entitled to anything branded with Magic Mike even if it was created after they separated.

The basis of her argument appears to be the Writers Guild’s rules. However, because she was not actually a credited writer on Magic Mike, one can see what Tatum’s opposition is.

CHATGPT: Under the Writers Guild of America (WGA) rules, if a screenwriter writes an original film, they are typically entitled to receive a share of revenues, known as "residuals," from any sequels, remakes, or derivative works based on that original film, even if they are not personally involved in those projects.

Residuals are a form of royalties that are paid out whenever a film is re-used or re-exploited, such as through sequels, remakes, television broadcasts, streaming, or other distributions. The exact amount and structure of these payments can vary based on the specifics of the contract, the medium of the derivative work, and how the original work is reused.

However, the entitlement to residuals does not automatically grant the original screenwriter creative involvement or control over these derivative works. The degree to which a screenwriter can claim involvement in or influence over sequels or remakes would depend on the terms negotiated in the original contract.

If the screenwriter's original contract did not specify or include certain rights regarding sequels or remakes, their involvement in future related projects might be limited to receiving residuals.

I’m sorry but she is just being greedy. Entitled women are like this in divorces. Unrealistic and won’t let go. Some divorces take ten or more years.

I wonder how the new(ish) man in Jenna's life feels about her being unable to let go of Channing, legally.

Not to get all 1950's, but how does the fiancé feel about Channing essentially financing their lifestyle? He can't feel like the man of the house, can he?

She already has two children with her new partner and they have been together six years. They have been engaged four years while she continues to haggle over the divorce.

Let me just add

She is at this point arguing for half the earnings of Tatum’s portions of the proceeds of the Magic Mike stage shows. Half of Tatum’s points from a Las Vegas cabaret show probably would not add a significant amount to the sum she is already entitled to. Considering that delaying the divorce over this issue prevents her from marrying the man to whom she has two children with, it appears as though she simply does not want to let Tatum go.

It's 2024 - we need to make these divorces more equitable for the genders.

Imagine if the roles were reversed - I'm pretty sure it would be done by now.

There needs to be a limit on what people can receive in a divorce AND how long a divorce can take. Not 6 fucking years. Not clogging up the courts with your petty bullshit.

These women married to wealthy men supported them and raised a kid or two - WITH housekeepers, assistants, and nannies. Boo fucking hoo.

I'm so glad I'm not straight. Way too many female gold diggers out there - you see it way too often. It's just a fact and it seems like girls are raised and Yaslighted among their friends to take everything they can. MAKE HIM PAY!!

Not saying men can't be awful in divorces - but it's definitely not 50/50 and equal.

[quote] Jenna Dewan Makes Another Demand In Nasty Divorce Battle With Channing Tatum

Jenna Dewan wants a full disclosure of Channing Tatum's finances amid their divorce battle.

The 43-year-old has continued to accuse her ex-husband of attempting to hide his profits from the "Magic Mike" franchise.

Jenna Dewan's filing is the most recent development in their six-year divorce battle, which began after they split in 2018.

According to Dewan, Tatum and his team have allegedly been creating a chain of LLCs and "holding companies" to conceal cash flow from the Magic Mike empire. This revelation led Dewan to demand a quick audit.

The audit would cover all the various brand deals that Tatum and his business partners engaged in during the period of their marriage. "Magic Mike" is a 2012 cinema hit in which Channing starred as the lead and a male stripper.

The huge project produced two more sequels, a live show in Vegas, a reality show, and multiple licensing deals. According to Dewan:

"The Magic Mike intellectual property and derivative assets which were created during the marriage have since proliferated into a franchise of extremely lucrative live shows and other business activities."

She accused the 44-year-old and his partners of engaging in various self-dealing transactions designed to hide "Magic Mike" intellectual property and derivative asset income as performance and consulting fees.

According to In Touch, Dewan also claimed that Channing and his partner engaged in contributions from 3rd parties to hide the truth from her.

The actress stated in the filing that she plans to present solid evidence to the court during trial to prove that the "Magic Mike" intellectual property that was created during their marriage is community in character and "since has grown into a multi-million cultural phenomenon."

Dewan's grouse with Tatum did not end there. She accused the actor of failing to come plain about the business opportunities available from "Magic Mike" after they parted ways romantically.

Tatum also allegedly pocketed "Magic Mike" income exclusively by collecting 100 percent of the post-separation profits from the franchise.

Dewan claimed she "has been systematically excluded from business activities associated with her 50 percent stake" in the intellectual property.

In light of the above complaint, Dewan declared her intention to seek an order that will compel Channing to "immediately assign and transfer 50%" of all rights, title, and interest "he possessed and or/held in and to the "Magic Mike" Enterprise entities at the date of separation of the parties" to her.

However, the 44-year-old disputed all of Dewan's claims in the filing, reiterating that she was fully aware of all business deals carried out during the marriage.

Tatum disclosed to the court he had made significant efforts behind the scenes to "settle all issues in this matter without litigation."

"I have made countless settlement proposals, attended multiple mediations, my attorneys have prepared numerous drafts of proposed judgments, and I have tried to resolve issues with [Jenna]," claimed the actor.

He noted that they have resolved some issues so far, but the most significant one still remains the financial aspects because Dewan "continues to delay resolution and provides one reason after another for why this case cannot settle."

Jesus Christ, what a cunt!

I hope that Hollywood is paying attention to this, and she never gets hired, ever again.

This fag has any income?

He's taking care of his kid and she's clearly moved on with Tony winner Steve and two kids with him so I say she's Steve's problem now.

I had never seen her in anything until I was watching her in The Resident,” a five season medical series now on Netflix. I was surprised to find her a passable actress and very sexy with beautiful, intensely green eyes. She is a runt, however.

Channing must have cheated on her for years for her to be holding a grudge this long.

I have never understood why celebrities get married in the first place. Or why more of them don't get prenups.

I agree with R19 -- I'm glad I'm not straight.

If this is how she behaves with Channing, I wonder what her current partner thinks. She'll do the bloody same to him.

Another one here whose glad I'm gay and don't have to deal with women and all their bullshit. I've known more straight men I can think of offhand who went through hell with getting divorced.

Actually based on the new information, she actually may have a case. If he was indeed creating shadow entities to hide profits from Magic Mike because he they had already separated, that would implicate him as believing himself that these assets were community property. He could be hiding quite a bit of money from her.

ChatGPT says this: Jenna Dewan's argument that everything derived from the *Magic Mike* franchise is community property hinges on the concept of community property laws, which are applicable in states like California, where the couple likely filed for divorce. Community property generally includes all assets and income acquired by either spouse during the marriage, unless explicitly defined as separate property (such as inheritances or gifts).

Dewan is asserting that the *Magic Mike* intellectual property and its derivative assets, which were developed during the marriage, should be considered community property. This would entitle her to a 50% stake in the revenue generated by the franchise. Her claim rests on the idea that any profits or business opportunities from the franchise, created while they were married, belong equally to both spouses, regardless of who directly managed or developed them.

Tatum's alleged actions of creating LLCs and holding companies, if proven, could be interpreted as attempts to shield assets that should be subject to division. However, this will depend on whether Dewan can prove that the *Magic Mike* franchise qualifies as community property and that Tatum has concealed assets or misrepresented profits. Additionally, any profits generated after their separation may not automatically be considered community property unless they directly stem from efforts or business ventures that were initiated during the marriage.

If Dewan succeeds in proving that these assets were community property, her request for 50% of the rights, title, and interest in the franchise would likely be justified. However, this will ultimately be determined by the court based on the evidence presented.

When Beards Get Greedy. This was a showmance folks, and she can really bring the dirt if he doesn't capitulate. She knows that she has all the power.

Lol R29.

So the guy who wrote "Magic Mike," Reid Carolin, is Channing's "real" husband?

Haha. Okay, whatever.

Jenna is simply gorgeous. I sort of wonder why it didn't work out for her and Channing. She's a great dancer too, more than she's an actress. I like Steve Kazee. I wish Jenna would settle and finally move on, this looks petty and bad to the industry. What is she claiming she did toward the intellectual property of Magic Mike? Being married to it doesn't seem like enough. Shit. If I invent something great while married, my other half gets half that intellectual property? WHY?

The most unbelievable thing out of this entire ordeal is that Channing Tatum has built an empire out of a series of softcore porn B-movies that barely have a coherent storyline, and are poorly acted. As for Jenna Dewan, I don't think that she is still in love with, or that she holds a grudge against CT. She just wants as much money as possible out of the relationship, because she's aware of the fact that she will never be even a C-Lister and needs to save for her old age. I would do the same, to be honest.

Will someone please get me out?

This is why Dateline exists.

If I were a rich celebrity I would never get married.

No shit r35! How many celeb marriages have been wedded bliss that have lasted for decades? You could almost count them on one hand.

I would never marry either. Ain't nobody would be getting half of everything from me and alimony for god knows how long just because we were married for a few years. Fuck. That.

Calm down r36. No one wants you.

Many have r37! Luckily I've been happily partnered for years with a man who financially is equal to me so there's no stress over money.

[quote] Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan Settle Divorce 6 Years After Split, Resolve “Magic Mike” Money Dispute

Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan have reached a settlement to finalize their divorce six years after their breakup, PEOPLE confirms.

Both waived spousal support, as they avoid a trial that was set for December. The Daily Mail was first to report news of the divorce settlement.

Tatum, 44, and Dewan, 43, separated in 2018 after nearly nine years of marriage, and Dewan filed for divorce from the actor in October 2018. They met on the set of Step Up in 2006 and were engaged two years later. In 2009, they got married in Malibu. They welcomed daughter Everly, now 11, in 2013.

The years-long divorce proceeding featured a clash over the profits connected to the Magic Mike franchise, which began during their marriage.

Dewan's attorneys maintained throughout the divorce that the film was developed during her relationship with Tatum and co-financed with marital funds, while Tatum’s legal team has argued in the past that he has never hidden finances or denied Dewan “her share of the community assets or income."
