# Tiffany Haddish Mocks Common as Jennifer Hudson Faces Relationship Scrutiny
Tiffany Haddish has taken a swipe at Common following whispers of trouble in his relationship with Jennifer Hudson, reigniting discussions about his romantic history.
Common and Hudson, who confirmed their romance in 2022 after months of speculation, initially appeared as a perfect match. Both hailing from Chicago, their shared background and careers in entertainment—Common as a conscious rapper and Hudson as an EGOT winner—made them a celebrated pair. However, recent rumors of a breakup, circulating since late 2023, have cast doubt on their idyllic image, with fans and commentators like Haddish pointing to Common’s pattern of fleeting commitments.
Publicly, Common has been vocal about his affection for Hudson, often describing her as a “blessing” and a “true companion” in interviews. He has emphasized their deep connection, calling it one of the most important partnerships of his life. Hudson, in contrast, has remained more reserved, occasionally acknowledging her happiness but avoiding detailed commentary.
This disparity—Common’s effusive praise versus Hudson’s restraint—has fueled speculation. Fans question if his words are genuine or a form of damage control, especially given his past relationships with high-profile women like Serena Williams, Taraji P. Henson, Erykah Badu, and Haddish herself, all of which ended with similar claims of his inability to commit.
Haddish, who dated Common during the pandemic and split less than two years later, has not held back her critique. After their breakup, she expressed being blindsided, while Common cited a busy schedule as the reason—an excuse fans dismissed, noting his consistently hectic lifestyle.
Now, as Hudson navigates similar territory, Haddish has joined online chatter m0cking Common’s reputation as Hollywood’s “Mr. Can’t Commit.” Social media platforms like TikTok and Twitter are rife with memes and threads highlighting his pattern of charming women with grand declarations of love, only to withdraw when long-term stability is on the table.
Common’s romantic track record paints a clear picture. With Serena Williams in the mid-2000s, he lauded her discipline and intelligence, yet later admitted to pulling away.
Taraji P. Henson’s relationship around 2005 ended similarly, with her citing his lack of readiness for stability. Erykah Badu, a significant romance in the early 2000s, left Common “devastated” post-breakup, yet he again cited unreadiness. Haddish’s experience echoed this—initially smitten, she faced the same abrupt end. Fans now warn Hudson, fearing she’s next in line for heartbreak despite her strength and success as a talk show host and artist.
The internet is divided. Some hope Hudson will break the cycle, believing her maturity and resilience could change Common. Others, including skeptics and Haddish’s commentary, predict a familiar outcome, viewing his current praises as a countdown to another exit.
As Hudson maintains her silence and Common defends their love publicly, the narrative remains unresolved. Will history repeat, or will Hudson defy the odds? The public watches, wary of another chapter in Common’s well-known story.
