Jenna Dewan and Channing Tatum, once a Hollywood power couple, find themselves entangled in ongoing divorce proceedings, unable to resolve financial disagreements years after their separation. According to recent legal documents accessed by PEOPLE, both Jenna and Channing have submitted requests for mutual testimony in court, indicating that the resolution to their financial disputes is still out of reach.

Jenna Dewan, in her recent court filings, presented a “preliminary witness list” that surprisingly includes both herself and Channing Tatum. The documents reveal Jenna’s intention for both parties to testify about various aspects of their marriage, specifically focusing on “business and financial activities.”

This move suggests that Jenna is prepared to delve into detailed discussions regarding the economic intricacies of their partnership during the marriage. On the flip side, Channing Tatum has not only requested Jenna’s testimony but also that of her fiancé, Steve Kazee. The documents highlight that Kazee is expected to provide insights into his cohabitation with Jenna, their joint expenses, and other related financial matters.

This request by Channing indicates a broader scope of inquiry, possibly to clarify the financial dynamics between Jenna and her fiancé as they pertain to Jenna’s financial claims in the divorce. The divorce proceedings are drawing attention due to the significant financial stakes involved, particularly concerning profits from Channing Tatum’s successful “Magic Mike” franchise.

Despite announcing their split six years ago, Jenna and Channing have yet to agree on a financial settlement that addresses the division of earnings from the lucrative franchise, among other financial aspects. The couple, who wed in 2009 and share a 10-year-old daughter named Everly, have their next court hearing scheduled for Friday, April 12.

The stakes are high as they head into this hearing, with both parties seeking resolution on multiple complex issues. The court documents list the “key issues” for the trial as the division of property, reimbursement claims, support, breach of fiduciary duty, and attorneys’ fees. As the trial date approaches, the spotlight intensifies on how these matters will unfold and what the implications will be for both Jenna and Channing.

The proceedings not only highlight the challenges of untangling shared financial interests in the wake of a celebrity divorce but also the personal complexities involved when both parties are public figures. The outcome of this case could set a significant precedent for how financial and business assets are treated in similar high-profile divorces in the future.
