After being spotted together in public, award-winning actress and singer Jennifer Hudson confirmed her profound relationship with rapper and actor Common. In a recent ‘CBS Mornings’ interview, she expressed her happiness and hinted at the potential for a long-term commitment.
The couple, who first sparked dating rumors in 2022, was recently seen holding hands in New York City, solidifying their status. Despite initial speculation, Jennifer remained private about her relationship, but her latest revelation on the talk show shifted her approach.
Addressing her relationship with Common, Jennifer told host Gayle King that she was “pleased” and emphasized the depth of their connection. Referring to Common as “someone who shall remain nameless,” she hinted at a strong bond beyond a casual romance. When asked about the nature of their relationship, she described it as “more sophisticated than booked up,” ruling out any casual fling or entanglement.
This public acknowledgment follows their collaboration in the upcoming action-thriller film ‘Breathe,’ where they play significant roles. Their on-screen chemistry has translated into real-life romance, sparking interest among fans and the media.
Jennifer’s previous relationship with ex-fiancé David Otunga ended in 2017 after a decade together. Their separation was marred by accusations and legal disputes, including a protective order obtained by Jennifer citing alleged threatening behavior from Otunga. Eventually, the former couple reached a custody agreement in 2019, ensuring equal parenting rights for their son.
As Jennifer Hudson steps into this new chapter of her love life with Common, her openness reflects her resilience and commitment to finding happiness. Fans eagerly await further updates on this blossoming romance, hopeful for a love story that stands the test of time.
