*Common is known and revered for his way with rhymes. But the “Go!” MC’s reputation as a lady’s man looks to be a red flag for elevating his relationship with Jennifer Hudson’s past dating status.
In addition to Common’s past flames (tennis legend Serena Williams, singer Erykah Badu, actor Taraji P. Henson, political activist Angela Rye, and comedian Tiffany Haddish), Radar Online reports that Hudson’s hesitancy stems from past heartbreak from her 2017 relationship with former pro wrestler David Otunga. Before splitting in 2017, the pair were engaged for close to a decade and parents to their 14-year-old son, David, Jr.
“After her engagement went south, Jennifer was adamant she would never marry — that it just isn’t in the cards for her,” a friend of Hudson’s told the National Enquirer. “But then Common came into her life and swept her off her feet!”
Although Hudson and Common shared a longtime friendship, the romance between the pair didn’t exist until they worked together on the upcoming sci-fi thriller “Breathe.” From there came sightings of Common and Hudson displaying PDA, as Hudson downplayed talk surrounding their love.
“People create their narratives of it,” the 42-year-old talk show host said. “…we shot a film together and he played my husband. We gotta eat in between those moments.”
The rumors proved true with Hudson and Common an official item. In Common’s eyes, the EGOT winner is the one as he credits his significant other with feeling “like I have grown, and the work that I’ve done on myself has allowed me to see that I am a marrying type.”
Still, it’s hard for Hudson to move forward with Common’s past relationships looming over a potential future with her.
“Common tells Jen despite his past with so many famous women, he’s in the relationship for keeps” an insider shared with Radar. “But Jen felt that way when she was engaged for nine years, and she doesn’t want to end up with a broken marriage and be back at square one!”
