Jenna Dewan is stepping up and moving on from her divorce.

Days after finalizing her divorce from Channing Tatum, 44, on Sept. 25 after six years of negotiations, the 43-year-old broke her silence with a subtle nod to another famous split. 

Dewan—who was married to her Step Up costar for eight years before their 2018 separation—cheekily commemorated finally settling her divorce by posting a famous photo of Nicole Kidman on her Instagram Story Sept. 26. In the 2001 snap, which is now a commonly used meme, Kidman looked relieved as she left her attorney's office after signing her divorce papers from Tom Cruise.

In addition to the knowing reference, she also posted an Instagram slideshow Sept. 25 full of selfies, family photos and videos, nature and video calls under which she wrote, "Thank you universe," along with the prayer hands emoji.

The carousel post included photos of her fiancé, Steve Kazee, their two children, Callum, 4, and Rhiannon, 3 months, and a few rare snaps of her and Tatum’s daughter Everly, 11.

In an allusion to her caption, Dewan's post also featured a screenshot of a quote that read, "My happiness is a direct reflection of my faith in the universe."

As part of the finalized divorce agreement, the former couple both waived spousal support and have also agreed to work out any future disagreements over custody privately with a judge, according to documents obtained by E! News.

The proceedings stalled earlier this year as Dewan and Tatum—who is engaged to Zoë Kravtiz—argued over earnings the Blink Twice actor receives from the Magic Mike franchise.

She accused her ex of transferring his profits into "an irrevocable trust" and transferred licensing rights to a third party without telling her, while he denied her claims and later said she was utilizing "delay tactics" in their divorce. The settled divorce comes just a few months before they were set to begin a trial over the disputed earnings.

The Rookie actress previously opened up about co-parenting with her ex, saying that it's been a learning process for both of them.

"Like everything else in life, you learn as you go. You shift and evolve and you adapt to how life is presenting itself to you," Dewan told People in June. "That includes getting the new normal of a blended family."

She added, "Kids always come first. How you feel about your kids. How you treat your kids. Kids always come first above everything else."

"I let them be who they are and I try to just guide them gently without putting my own agenda on them," she told E! News' Francesca Amiker at the Baby2Baby Mother's Day celebration in Los Angeles in April 2024. "I really just try to watch them and learn from them and guide them."

This has helped strengthen their bond. "If you are conscious about it, you can start to see that they are reflecting back to you all aspects and different aspects and it's like a prism of yourself," the Rookie actress said. "So it's like a very beautiful and incredible learning, growing relationship."

"Apparently, when you become a mother, you're supposed to leave your sexuality at the door, and I never understood that," Jenna Dewan told Women's Health in July 2018. "I think there's nothing sexier than becoming a mother. You give life. It's everything. And you don't change who you are inside just because you have a kid."

The actress also gushed about her daughter Everly finding her own sense of style at a young age. From dressing in her favorite colors to rocking anything with glitter, she is all about letting her daughter try new looks.

"She has got the most unique style. The girl picks out her clothes every single morning. She is so funky. We went an entire year where she only wore purple, but now we're more into anything that has glitter," she revealed to People in Dec. 2017. "But she's tomboy, so she's got the big chunky sneakers with the leggings, with the tutu, anything that has glitter, magical anything. She's very into that right now."

Jenna knows the importance of encouraging Everly and allowing her to build self-confidence from a young age.

"Starting early and starting to build her confidence in her true authenticity and herself is important, because then when the influences come in that will try and tell her, ‘You're not great' and ‘You're not amazing,' she'll have that strong sense of reminding," she shared with People in 2017.

The Soundtrack star revealed that becoming a mother allowed her to feel more empowered.

"I believe that I can do and accomplish anything at any point with any amount of sleep with any amount of stressors in life," she explained to Us Weekly in Oct. 2019. "[When you have a child], you know that you love something and you can commit and dedicate yourself to something so much, that you can do anything. [It] made me feel very empowered."

Is there anything sweeter than this pregnancy announcement? Jenna revealed that she was expecting her first child with Steve Kazee, her boyfriend, in Sept. 2019 on Instagram after welcoming Everly with her ex-husband, Channing Tatum six years earlier.

She wrote, "Becoming a mother is quite simply the absolute best most incredible thing that has ever happened to me. @stevekazee you are a gift from above and i couldn't be more excited to be expanding our family together...! Thank you guys for all the love!!"

The Resident actress shared how her outlook on work and finding balance has evolved since giving birth to Everly.

"My [daughter] Everly changed [everything] for me. Now I think, ‘What can I do to be there for her, and how long will I be away for a project?' I say no to a lot now," she said. "When you are a dancer, you are a hustler by nature…I was scared but the universe was like, ‘We got you.' I'm doing what I love more but I don't have to say yes all the time," she explained at The Wrap's Power Women Summit in Oct. 2019.

In 2019, Dewan released her first book, Gracefully You: Finding Beauty and Balance in the Everyday, and opened up about her fears about finding love again after her split from Tatum the previous year. Her no. 1 concern was her daughter, of course!

"Then there was my daughter. She's very shy and funny and standoffish with men. It takes her a long time to warm up to others. I predicted this child was going to be jealous of whoever else I spent my time with. How would I ever date with her blessing? My fears were going haywire," she wrote.

The former World of Dance host gushed about Everly on Instagram shortly before her 5th birthday.

"And ohhhhh myyy goodnesssss to this little fairy baby right here. Thank you Everly for choosing me as your mother. I will love, cherish and support you till the end of time. You teach me every single day and i am continually in awe of your strength and your wisdom. I can't believe this was almost 5 years ago....!!!! Love you bigger than the sky and all the stars," she posted.

Dewan and her daughter take Halloween seriously. In fact, Everly had two costumes for the spooky holiday in 2019.

"We went through many, many sort of ideas and I finally said this is your deadline. You have to decide by today. She chose angel for the day and peacock at night," Dewan revealed on GMA.

"All of the sudden it was peacock. Peacock? I was like, 'Where did that come from?' but she's very excited," she continued.
