Things obviously didn’t work out between Common and Tiffany Haddish. Still, that’s not stopping the rapper from finding love with someone new. Since February, he’s been linked to American Idol alum Jennifer Hudson romantically. Of course, the pair have been friends for quite some time now. Cameras have caught them out and about together in the past, though little is known about how serious the nature of their budding romance is. This past week, however, gave some indication that things may be heating up between Hudson and her beau.
On Thursday (May 4), she and Common were photographed walking arm in arm through a Chicago neighbourhood near her home. Sources told TMZ that the lovers strolled for about 90 minutes, taking their time while enjoying the local scenery. Hudson has reportedly been spotted more frequently than ever over the past few days. She usually spends a lot of time in Los Angeles, where her syndicated talk show is filmed. However, the ongoing writer’s strike has put a halt to that. This gives the vocalist plenty more time to spend with Common at home.

It appears that their connection moved from a platonic to a romantic one during their time together on the set of Breathe. They’ve since been seen grabbing romantic dinners at Nobu, and even Haddish took the opportunity to crack a joke about her ex moving on. “Girl, he never gave me no damn earrings. He probably gave those to Jennifer,” he comedian quipped on TikTok after being asked about jewelry previously given to Common to pass off to her.
It’s hard to say after just a few months, but so far, to co-stars seem to be fitting into each other’s lives seamlessly. See paparazzi photos from Common’s time in Chicago with Jennifer Hudson here.
