It has been almost a year since the supermarket tabloids made some claim about Channing Tatum's marriage to Jenna Dewan being near divorce, but it appears the Hollywood gossip-mill hasn't forgotten about the Step Up couple just yet. According to the latest gossip news updates, Channing's Magic Mike XXL co-star, Adam Rodriguez, is said to be flirting with the mother of Tatum's child to such an extent that he is now on the 22 Jump Street actor's bad-side. In a related story, Channing offcially announced a release date for his new Gambit movie, but would not say which additional X-MEN, if any, would also be joining the Marvel cast.
It takes a man very secure in his masculinity to think they might be able to take Channing Tatum's special lady away, but that is exactly what his Magic Mike XXL costar, Adam Rodriguez, is being accused of by the tabloids.
One source in the latest August 3, issue of Star magazine, claims that after Adam spent a little time with Jenna learning the Magic Mike dance routines, his behavior around noticeably inappropriate:
"Channing asked Jenna to help with the sexy choreography.
"Adam is a natural flirt, and so is Jenna, but his infatuation has only gotten worse over time."
According to the informant, it's not that Channing thinks anything would ever happen so much as he hates the idea of someone he knows having the audacity to try to put the moves on his wife:
"Jenna would never cheat, and Channing doesn't doubt her loyalty, but he gets superjealous when another guy flirts with his wife right in front of his face."
Although the whole story sounds like it was completely made up by the media, the source that the National Enquirer spoke to insists that things are all but over between the Tatums and Rodriguez:
"Channing's really got it in for Adam now.
"He wants him to stay away from them both."
On a lighter note -- after months of speculation, Channing finally has some answers for all the X-MEN fans wondering about his upcoming Gambit debut.
During a stop at the 2015 Comic-Con, Tatum revealed that the ragin' Cajun would not be making an appearance in X-MEN: Apocalypse -- instead opting to wait until autumn of next year to bring the surly character to the big screen (via JustJared):
"This is a standalone movie and it's the story of Gambit and we'll probably gradually integrate that character into the X-MEN universe as we go.
"As far as what characters from the X-MEN universe make it into the movie -- we're not exactly sure yet, so we're figuring it out. It's still at the script stage...It's his story in New Orleans."
Let's just hope Channing spends a little more time vetting his fellow cast members this go around.
