*As we previously reported, “Empire” star Taraji P. Henson got engaged to former NFL player Kelvin Hayden back in 2018, three years after the duo started dating. While things seemed to be going pretty well, fans began wondering if they were still an item after she was recently seen celebrating her birthday without him.
While Taraji didn’t speak on her relationship status at that time despite all the speculation, she’s now opening up about their status, confirming that they are no longer together.
The 50-year-old appeared on the ”Breakfast Club” where Taraji, host Charlamagne Tha God, Tracie Jade, and Jay Barnett discussed how trauma impacts intimate relationships. While sharing her experience, Taraji revealed that it “just didn’t work out” between her and Hayden.
