Haddish’s take
Tiffany Haddish, who dated Common for around a year and a half, shared her perspective on their relationship.
“The only celebrity I’ve entangled with, it was two years of him chasing me down before I finally was like, ‘Okay, let’s do something,’” she revealed.”

But what about Common’s dating habits? Haddish playfully quipped,
“It’s every two years. It’s like six to nine months single and then two years on [in a relationship] and then six to nine months single and then two years on. That’s his schedule. That’s his cycle.”
The sobering truth
Haddish’s transparency extended beyond Common’s dating patterns. She shared that she’s been sober for six months, a decision that led her to make healthier relationship choices.
“I was waking up next to ugly men,” she admitted, hinting at past experiences fueled by alcohol. And while she’s chosen celibacy, Haddish hasn’t been sitting at home knitting sweaters. She dropped a bombshell: “I’ve been dating multiple guys. They all know about each other.”
Common’s love life may follow a predictable rhythm, but it’s anything but dull. Whether he’s crooning on stage or navigating the complexities of romance, the rapper keeps us guessing.
