‘That’s Not What You Told Me’: Tiffany Haddish Shares How ‘Disappointed’ She Was Following Common’s Public Remarks Regarding Their Breakup

Tiffany Haddish disclosed in a recent interview with Fox Soul’s “Hollywood Unlocked Uncensored with Jason Lee” how saddened she was over her ex Common’s public remarks regarding their breakup. 

Haddish and Common reportedly split last month after dating for more than a year. Sources supposedly close to the exes claimed that busy schedules were the reason behind the breakup. The rapper later confirmed the reports published by People magazine and stated the former couple came to a mutual agreement to go their separate ways. The pair first met on the set of 2019’s “The Kitchen.”

In the Dec. 22 interview with host Jason Lee, Haddish shared that she wasn’t warned about the People magazine article that provided alleged details surrounding their breakup. She revealed she found out about it through her publicist, who later told her they weren’t publicly responding to the publication. Haddish wrapped up the statement by saying she doesn’t know who leaked the information to the public, despite both parties’ camps learning about the breakup early on.

The 42-year-old also expressed how she felt about the relationship being over. She said, “I’m fine with it. It’s going to be new opportunities.” Haddish added despite being OK with the breakup, she does miss Common.

“I miss him. I miss him from time to time, but that’s with any relationship, intimate relationship that you might have, you miss them. But I’m fine with it.” When addressing Common’s interview and the busy schedule claims, Haddish admitted she thought the same thoughts everybody mentioned in the comments.

As Lee began to elaborate that many mentioned the rapper appeared to be the common denominator in his failed relationships, She quipped, “He might be the type of person that never really settles with somebody. Maybe he’s like, you know, like a bee going from flower to flower to flower. I don’t know. I wish him nothing but joy and happiness, you know. He will always be cool.”

When Lee pressed Haddish to share how she really felt about his comments, the actress claimed that she was disappointed despite not having hard feelings for the “Just Wright” star. She said, “I was disappointed. I was very disappointed. I was like, ‘Oh, OK. ‘Cause that’s not what you told me, but OK.'”

Haddish’s interview comes less than two weeks after the “Girls Trip” star threw shots at her ex after encountering his look-alike during her Colombia getaway.

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
