Jenna Dewan on Friday received a special honor and made a stylish appearance at her first red carpet event since she and Channing Tatum announced their split more than two weeks ago.

The 37-year-old actress and World of Dance host attended the 2018 St. Jude Children's Research Hospital's Hope & Heritage Gala, where she received the Humanitarian Of The Year award.

"Thank you @stjude for this incredible honor!" Dewan wrote on her Instagram page. "I am so proud of everything you do and continue to do for children."

She wore a black floral embroidered gown and no wedding ring. The actress had stopped wearing it weeks ago.

Dewan and Tatum announced on April 2 that they had separated after eight years of marriage. The two share a 4-year-old daughter, Everly.

"They are lovingly deciding to continue their lives together as friends and parents of Everly because that's how their relationship has grown," a source later told E! News.

More than a week after the split announcement, Dewan took to social media to thank her fans for their messages of love and support.

Dewan last appeared at a celebrity event a week before her and Tatum's split announcement, attending the Hunter for Target Ultimate Family Festival at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California.
