The insider insisted that the first two years of their marriage were actually the hardest. “They've experienced more than their fair share of tough times, but they’re getting along better than they have in years after his rocketing fame threatened to tear them permanently,” said the source.

The Magic Mike star is now the one “doing work on their marriage” by staying home with Jenna and their daughter, Everly.

The source added Channing even delayed his new superhero film Gambit, which has provided more family time and “they've really taken advantage of it with lots of romantic weekends at home.”
