"Not Channing Tatum being the ultimate feis dad," read another comment, with other fans expressing surprise; "Channing being a feis dad was not on my bingo card".

According to her mother Jenna, Everly was inspired to start Irish dancing after seeing the 2021 animated film Riverdance.

She told Access Hollywood: 'We watched a movie called Riverdance and she said, "Mom, please find me a dance class". So we found a dance class and it just took off, she loves it.'
