Gird your heart loins, because here's some more happy-sad news about the Jenna Dewan and Channing Tatum split!

Jenna is the cover story for the 15th anniversary edition of Vegas magazine and in the interview, she talks about meeting Channing Tatum on the set of Step Up. “We started out as friends, and I would say it was an instant recognition,” she said. “When we met it felt like we had known each other for many years.”

She shared that even though their romantic relationship is over, their friendship remains: “Ultimately, no matter what Chan and I are doing, we’re really great friends. I think that will never change, no matter what.”

Jenna also talked about returning to her dance roots as the host of World of Dance. “It fulfills my soul on a level that most work and jobs do not because dance is my true passion,” she said.

She continued: “It’s always been something at the root of who I am; it’s in my blood. I did not see this job coming, and I didn’t know what to expect because I never really had the intention of hosting, ever. [But] I’m in a place in my life where I’m ready to say yes.”

“Being a dancer, you’re ingrained with this mentality to make it work, and you can do it all, but as I matured … and had a child, I’ve realized that you do the things you’re meant to do,” she said. “You have to protect that and trust that even though you’re saying no to things, there are a ton of other, better yeses that will be coming.”

Jenna and Channing announced their separation on April 2.

“We have lovingly chosen to separate as a couple. We fell deeply in love so many years ago and have had a magical journey together. Absolutely nothing has changed about how much we love one another, but love is a beautiful adventure that is taking us on different paths for now,” the statement read. “There are no secrets nor salacious events at the root of our decision — just two best-friends realizing it’s time to take some space and help each other live the most joyous, fulfilled lives as possible. We are still a family and will always be loving dedicated parents to Everly. We won’t be commenting beyond this, and we thank you all in advance for respecting our family’s privacy.”
