She says her Instagram feed is a “highlight reel,” and claims that “ten percent of the time, Chan and I have a lot of fun. Ninety percent, we’re really [boring](http://www.womenshealthmag.com/sex-and-love/bored-relationship-fix).” That fun part apparently includes parties at [Adam Levine](http://time.com/4366765/adam-levine-fund-christina-grimmie-funeral/)‘s house and shuttling between their homes in Ojai and Los Angeles.

I got that really fast…I was running back and forth from [breast-feeding](http://motto.time.com/4273482/adele-breastfeed-haters/) to filming a scene, overextending myself on every level. I realized I have to make priorities, and my family is number one no matter what.” As for being married to Channing Tatum, she fully acknowledges the fact that fans constantly lust after him. [She jokes](http://www.people.com/article/jenna-dewan-tatum-womens-health-cover), “I think he’s the sexiest thing in the world, so of course I get why other people think it.
