Channing Tatum Denies Operating Burner Instagram Account Criticizing Zoë Kravitz and Harry Styles

Channing Tatum has refuted claims that he was behind a burner Instagram account that posted critical comments about his ex-fiancée Zoë Kravitz and her fiancé, Harry Styles. The actor addressed the speculation via Instagram Stories on Monday, calling the rumors "f–king hilarious."

Screenshots circulating over the weekend showed comments from an account with the handle @bidness_nonya, which reportedly had only one follower: Tatum's official Instagram account, @channingtatum.

"Yo i truly can’t believe yall think this is what I’m doing with my free time," Tatum wrote on his Instagram Stories. "why would I follow a burner account if I didn’t want people to connect me to it?"

He added, "Wtf come on. But if I really need to say it, I only have one IG account @channingtatum."

The @bidness_nonya account has since been deactivated. The comments attributed to it included observations about Kravitz and Styles, with one post stating, "When I see these two I think back at how her former fiancé called her the most intentional person he knows. I wonder how contextual he was being. … To me intentional = calculated."

Another comment criticized Kravitz for being "constantly spotted" with Styles, comparing it to Tatum's previous relationship with Kravitz. A third comment, purportedly made beneath a photo of Tatum with his girlfriend Inka Williams, also seemed to reference Tatum's ex-wife, Jenna Dewan.

Tatum and Kravitz began dating in 2021, announced their engagement in October 2023, and reportedly ended their relationship by October 2024. Tatum has since been linked with model Inka Williams, while Kravitz has been publicly seen with Styles since the summer of 2025. Styles reportedly proposed to Kravitz in April. In the wake of their engagement announcement, Tatum shared a series of cryptic posts on social media about "letting go and trusting the flow of the universe."

Reps for Dewan, Kravitz, and Styles have not yet responded to requests for comment.
