Tiffany Haddish discussed her relationship with rapper Common in an interview with People. Before they formally started dating in 2020, Tiffany Haddish claimed that Common continuously pursued her for two years.

When Common and Haddish co-starred in the 2019 film The Kitchen, it was the first time they met. Their relationship was initially platonic. After a match on Bumble and a virtual date the following year, Haddish revealed their relationship on Steve-O's Wild Ride in August 2020.

During their year and a half of dating, Common and Tiffany Haddish appeared happy. Common told People Magazine in July 2021 that he enjoys life with Tiffany.

"I need to enjoy life. So I feel, with Tiffany and I, I've been experiencing that and I'm grateful for that."

Nevertheless, Common allegedly said that their relationship had reached its end, and the pair discreetly broke up in August 2021. People reported in November that they were "never in the same city together" and "too busy" for a committed relationship.

However, a Washington Post article on July 20, 2023, reported that Haddish said the break-up wasn't mutual, thus it reportedly ended badly.

"It was more him saying, 'I think this relationship has run its course.' And I was like, 'Okay. Like you're gonna be a 50-year-old single man. Okay?'" she said at the time.

Haddish further told the news outlet,

"It wasn't mutual. It was more him saying, 'I think this relationship has run its course.'"

Additionally, in the same People interview on April 28, Tiffany Haddish claimed that Common goes through two-year cycles where he spends six to nine months alone and then two years in a relationship. Haddish acknowledged that this cycle might have played a role in their break-up, saying, "I ain't mad at that."

The actress also shared details about her lifestyle, stating that guys approach her more aggressively when they find out she isn't having any physical relationships with anyone anymore. She also talked about their efforts, and their extravagant displays of affection and generosity, which occasionally take her by surprise.
