Hollywood actor Channing Tatum has opened up about the changes he’s noticing in his 12-year-old daughter, Everly, as she begins to enter her teenage years.
Speaking on The Drew Barrymore Show while promoting his new film Roofman, the 45-year-old actor shared that his daughter — whom he shares with ex-wife Jenna Dewan — has recently become “more opinionated and strong-willed” than ever before.
“I got yelled at in an escape room yesterday,” he said with a laugh. “She’s never yelled at me before. All I did was say, ‘I wonder what…’ and she went, ‘Dad, don’t touch that!’ Her eyes changed — they just went shark black or something. It was crazy.”
Tatum added that he’s learning to navigate the new phase of fatherhood, describing parenting as a “constant negotiation.”
Speaking further on The Kelly Clarkson Show, he revealed he’s currently weighing a movie offer in Australia, which could keep him away from his daughter for nearly two months.
“It’s always a balance,” he said. “I can afford to miss a movie, but not moments with my daughter.”
