Channing Tatum, 45, can’t keep his hands off Inka Williams, 26, as they share a STEAMY kiss in Costa Rica

Channing Tatum and his girlfriend Inka Williams were barely able to keep their hands off each other as they enjoyed a sun-soaked beach day in Costa Rica.

Nearly one year into their romance, the Magic Mike star, 45, and the Australian-born model, 26, appeared more smitten than ever as they were seen laughing, flirting and splashing in the ocean. 

At one point, Tatum even lifted Williams into the air before pulling her in for an affectionate embrace.

In another sweet moment, the pair were seen kissing at the water’s edge, seemingly oblivious to anyone around them.

Williams showed off her toned figure in a skimpy bikini paired with a sheer sarong, while Tatum kept things casual in a white T-shirt, black shorts and a baseball cap.

The flirty beach outing comes after a year that has seen the couple steadily step further into the public eye.

In October, the pair shared a kiss on the red carpet at the 69th BFI London Film Festival, chatting animatedly before locking lips at the premiere held at the Southbank Centre’s Royal Festival Hall.

The month prior, they made their official red-carpet debut in Los Angeles at the premiere of the anime film Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – Infinity Castle, four months after first going Instagram official.

That night also marked a rare public appearance for Tatum with his daughter Everly, 12, whom he shares with ex-wife Jenna Dewan. 

While Tatum and Williams largely avoided PDA on the carpet, Williams appeared delighted as she stayed close to Everly, who wore a satin light-blue ruffled gown with her blonde hair worn loose.

But while the couple have occasionally kept things low-key at events, they’ve been far more expressive online.

Prior to their Costa Rica getaway, Tatum shared a gushing birthday tribute to Williams on Instagram, posting a series of romantic photos and videos. 

One clip, filmed by Williams, showed her perched on the back of a dirt bike as Tatum drove, with the model gripping him for balance.

‘Happiest day of birth to my RIDER! Love you so,’ he wrote.

He also shared a black-and-white photo of himself tenderly kissing Williams on the cheek, along with a video of her gleefully diving into the ocean, which he captioned simply: ‘Love you stoopid.’

Williams first confirmed their relationship publicly in April, marking Tatum’s birthday with a swoon-worthy post featuring a collection of intimate, never-before-seen photos from their time together.

‘Happy life to the handsomest, kindest, funniest, stoopidest, most gorgeous human ever,’ she wrote. ‘Merci for making life beautiful and fun. Jtm trop fort.’

She had already declared her love a month earlier in a more unconventional way, sharing a photo that appeared to show her leg with the words ‘I love you’ written across it, the word ‘love’ replaced by a carefully drawn heart.

Tatum was first linked to Williams in January, when they were spotted leaving the CAA pre-Oscars party in Los Angeles together – just three months after his split from ex-fiancée Zoë Kravitz in October 2024.

A source told People at the time that the pair were romantically ‘seeing’ each other.

‘They met through friends. She’s great. She’s young, but seems older,’ the insider said, adding that Williams ‘makes him happy.’

According to DeuxMoi, Tatum’s new flame was around ’25 years old and about half his height’ when they first began dating.

Williams balances a successful modelling career with running her fashion brand, She Is I. 

She has previously spoken about how growing up in Bali shaped her outlook, telling By Charlotte that the island made her a ‘very compassionate person.’

‘I feel so connected to the culture and energy of this island. It’s so sacred and deep,’ she said. ‘That’s reflected in my day-to-day life and way of living.’

Williams has also credited starting modelling at a young age with helping her build resilience and inner strength.
