Channing Tatum and Zoë Kravitz have managed to make their relationship work despite the many, many celebrity breakups that have occurred in 2023 so far. Things seem to be going so well for them, in fact, that on Oct. 30, a source told People that the pair were engaged.

Though they haven’t made too many public appearances, both have continued to sing each other’s praises in interviews over the years. “He’s just a wonderful human. He makes me laugh and we both really love art and talking about art and the exploration of why we do what we do,” Kravitz told GQ in 2022. “We love to watch a film and break it down and talk about it and challenge each other.”
