Congratulations are in order for actors Zoe Kravitz and Channing Tatum as it was recently announced on Monday that the two are now engaged!
The news was confirmed via multiple sources to People who told the outlet that the two were spotted out together during Halloweekend with Kravitz noticeably sporting an engagement ring on her finger. The couple were dressed as Rosemary Woodhouse and the baby from the 1968 horror film Rosemary’s Baby. The two had been romantically linked shortly after filming Kravitz’ directorial debut, Pussy Island.
“Whether it was making me tea or pouring me a drink or going to whip someone into shape or whatever—he really was my protector and it was really wonderful and sweet,” she shared in a cover interview for GQ’s 2022 Men of the Year issue.
She later added: “I think if you can do something like that together, it’s a good test. And we came out even stronger.”
The news is a welcome reprieve in the midst of the plethora of celebrity breakups, divorces, and all around messy revelations that have been plaguing the news cycle.
As previously reported by The Root, the latest couple to reveal their shocking seven-year-long separation was Will Smith and Jada Pinkett-Smith. Before them, Lupita Nyong’o shared she was in a “season of heartbreak” due to her breakup from boyfriend Selema Masekala.

Prior to that, singer and actress Teyana Taylor and her NBA superstar husband Iman Shumpert also revealed they’d been separated for “quite some time.” Before them, Beyonce’s own mother Tina Knowles-Lawson and Richard Lawson decided to uncouple. And tw0 months before them, the divorce between Tia Mowry and Cory Hardrict was finalized (they announced their split last year).
Given all this, I’d be lying if I said the news about an upcoming wedding didn’t put some sort of smile on my face. Congrats to the happy couple!
