Jenna Dewan has defended Channing Tatum and shut down rumours they split because of his "flirting" and drinking.
The 37-year-old actress - who has four-year-old daughter Everly with her estranged husband - has spoken out to address speculation about their separation, which was announced earlier this week in a unified and positive joint statement.

Responding to the later allegations, a spokesperson for the star told the Mail Online: "Happy to clarify that absolutely none of these rumours are true.
"The reason our statement was so positive [was] because that's the reality of the situation."
