Jenna Dewan hits the red carpet for the first time

Jenna Dewan Stunned In Her First Public Appearance Since Split From Channing Tatum

Guess who she brought as her date? - by Pippa Nerada

Earlier this month, after nearly nine years of marriage, Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan Tatum announced their separation. The pair, who met on the set of Step Up in 2006, announced the split in a joint statement (you can read it below).

Since then, Jenna has dropped the 'Tatum' from her last name (and Instagram handle) and now, she's stepped out at her first post-breakup red carpet event: in fact, she was honoured as the 2018 St Jude Children's Research Hospital 'Humanitarian Of The Year' at the fifth annual St. Jude Hope & Heritage Gala in New York.

Needless to say, she looked incredible:
