Channing Tatum & Inka Williams Pack on the PDA on Red Carpet

by

Channing Tatum worked his magic with girlfriend Inka Williams.

At a screening of his new movie, *Roofman*, at the BFI London Film Festival on October 14th, the *Magic Mike* actor kissed Australian model Gabriella Demetriades on the red carpet while photographers took pictures.

Inka looked stunning on her date night in a black dress with a low neckline and a high slit, paired with black heels and a matching purse. Channing coordinated with a black shirt under a black suit jacket and pants. Despite the attention from cameras, the couple shared a tender moment, closing their eyes for a kiss.

Now that the movie is out, Channing is really enjoying the experience, but filming was incredibly challenging. The 45-year-old actor had to lose a significant amount of weight – he went from his normal weight down to just 172 pounds.

He originally aimed to weigh 185 pounds, but once he started losing weight during filming, he couldn’t stop. In an interview with *Variety* published on September 2nd, he explained that when assistant director Mariela Comitini expressed her worries, he realized the weight loss was negatively affecting his mental health. He admitted, ‘I think you’re right. This is weird.’

Becoming the character of Jeffrey Manchester, a former Army Reserve officer on the run, was both physically and emotionally demanding for the actor, known for his role in *Blink Twice*. This was especially true considering his recent split from Zoe Kravitz in October 2024.

Channing described a feeling of emptiness and sadness. He said he often felt hollow when looking at himself, and that the movie deeply explored themes of loneliness – a search for completeness and an attempt to overcome feeling empty inside.

It’s crucial for Channing to rest and recharge when he has free time, and that definitely includes enjoying time with Inka.

He and his new girlfriend, Inka, spent a relaxing tropical vacation together in June. They enjoyed simple pleasures like collecting seashells and lounging by the ocean. Channing playfully shared a photo of her on a raft on his Instagram, adding a cute kissing-cat emoji.

Inka showed her affection for the actor too, posting a birthday message for him in April with sweet pictures of them together.

Oh my gosh, I’m seriously obsessed! I saw Inka posted on Instagram, and she basically said everything I’ve been thinking! She wrote about him – the most handsome, sweetest, funniest, and even a little goofy guy ever – and said he makes life so much more beautiful. Honestly, she nailed it! I feel exactly the same way!
