Channing Tatum has forcefully denied rumors that he secretly used a burner Instagram account to post shady comments about his former fiancée, Zoë Kravitz, and her fiancé, Harry Styles, as reported by Page Six.

The actor described the speculation as “f**king hilarious.”

“Yo i truly can’t believe yall think this is what I’m doing with my free time,” the 46-year-old “Magic Mike” star wrote via Instagram Stories on Monday.

Tatum then questioned why he would publicly follow a burner account if he wanted to conceal a connection to it.

The account at the center of the chatter used the handle @bidness_nonya and went viral over the weekend.

“Why would I follow a burner account if I didn’t want people to connect me to it?” Tatum asked his followers. He continued, “Wtf, come on.”

The actor followed that dismissal with an unambiguous statement about his presence on the platform. “But if I really need to say it, I only have one IG account @channingtatum.”

The disputed account was deactivated amid the drama, but Tatum was reportedly its only follower.

That detail fueled speculation that he was the person operating the account and criticizing Kravitz, 37, as well as Styles, 32.

One widely noticed comment appeared beneath paparazzi photographs of Kravitz and Styles. The account wrote that it was “just here for the hate,” adding laughing and popcorn emojis.

Another comment revisited praise that Kravitz had received from her former fiancé.

“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.”

The same comment continued, “He was speaking in terms of filmmaking but leaning towards her as a person in general too.”

It also complained that Kravitz was “constantly spotted” with Styles, whom she began dating in the summer of 2025.

That remark contrasted the pair’s public sightings with “the ex who we heard about long before they were seen together.”

Tatum and Kravitz had publicly revealed their relationship in 2021 after his romance with Jessie J, which resumed following breaks, ended.

A third comment appeared beneath a photograph of Tatum with his younger girlfriend, Inka Williams.

It also targeted his former wife, Jenna Dewan, while defending Tatum’s current romantic life.

“His ex-wife tried to grift his money. Zoe knew she was too much of a free bird to settle down,” the comment read. “Let that man sow his wild oats in peace.”

Representatives for Dewan, Kravitz and Styles had not responded to Page Six’s requests for comment. Tatum was with Dewan, 45, from 2006 until 2018, and they welcomed daughter Everly during their time together.

Everly is now 13. Following his relationship with Jessie J, Tatum went public with Kravitz in 2021, and news of their engagement emerged in October 2023.

The engagement did not lead to marriage, as Tatum and Kravitz ended their relationship by the following October. Tatum subsequently moved on with Williams, 27, in early 2025.

Kravitz was linked to Styles later that same year after the two began dating in the summer of 2025. The former One Direction member proposed in April.

After that proposal, Tatum shared several cryptic posts through Instagram Stories concerning “letting go and trusting the flow of the universe.” His latest message, however, directly rejected claims that he was behind the deactivated account and its cutting commentary.

For Tatum, his public following of the account itself was central to his denial. He insisted that @channingtatum remains his only Instagram account and mocked the idea that operating the burner was how he spent his free time.
