Zoë Kravitz and Channing Tatum have been thriving romantically after one year, and now we're here to track it all.
In a love story that begins with Tatum as a muse, Kravitz and the Magic Mike star first connected back in 2017, when the Batwoman actress personally scouted Tatum to star as Slater King in her directorial debut and thriller, Pussy Island. After working together on the film, the two got close and friendly on various New York City dates, and ultimately fell into a romance by 2021.
Now fully a couple, the pair continue to be spotted on PDA-filled outings around the world, and frequently gush about one another in interviews—on both a personal and professional level.
Ahead, see the highlights from the couple's sweet relationship.
August 2022: They commemorate their first anniversary.
The two celebrate their first year of romance together with a couple's getaway to Positano, Italy, where they are spotted matching in white outfits and kissing on a yacht. They also bring along Everly Tatum, the actor's nine-year-old daughter from his previous marriage to Jenna Dewan.
"They are very happy," a source tells People of their thriving romance. "Their careers are a big focus and they share this passion. ... When they are off, they are very low-key. They enjoy quiet date nights with friends but most often just hang out at home."
"Channing is serious about Zoë," the insider adds. "It's not a casual relationship. They have been exclusive for a long time."
August 16, 2022: Kravitz talks about working with Tatum.
The actress discloses more details on working with Tatum on Pussy Island in an interview with WSJ. Magazine, where she praises his performance in the film and happily recalls her creative experience with him on set.
"When you make things with people, it's a very sacred space, and when you're compatible with somebody creatively, it often opens up other channels, because you're kind of sharing all of yourself," Kravitz says. "I'm really grateful that this movie has brought him into my life that way," she also adds.
"I felt, even from afar, before I knew him, that he was a feminist and that he wasn't afraid of exploring that darkness, because he knows he's not that," Kravitz continues. "That's why I was drawn to him and wanted to meet with him. And I was right."
She also likes that Tatum had yet to play a dark character before this role. "I think that's exciting to watch someone who's mostly played boy next door, good guy, love interest, all of that," she says.

Days later, another insider tells People that the two are still very happy together and have maintained a "playful energy that they have had since they first started dating." The source adds that they "continue to spend time together on both coasts," despite their busy schedules, and notes that they've opted to be more "discreet" about their relationship, as they are "uncomfortable with the attention."

Kravitz praises Tatum for his role as Slater King in Pussy Island in a cover story for ELLE.

"Looking at his work and hearing him speak about Magic Mike and the live show, I'm like, I think he's a feminist," Kravitz explains of her decision to cast him. "You need to be so far from who this is, where it's not scary. And I don't think we've ever seen him play someone dark. I'm excited to see him do that."
