Over the course of reflecting on the highs and lows of the relationship. Lynn suggested the end of the pandemic is what started the romance’s demise.

“First of all, I want to say, Tiffany, as you know, is for me, like, one of the best people I met in life. One of the best-hearted and most authentic and caring people that I met in life, and that’s what made me love her and be in love with her and want to be in a relationship with her and grow with her,” Common said before later continuing, “I don’t think the love really dispersed. I think it was just like we weren’t feeding the relationship.”

Ultimately, ‘The Light’ rapper admitted the breakup – which was ‘a mutual thing’ – was the result of accepting the difficulty of balancing his professional and personal life because they ‘didn’t want to be one foot in, one foot out.’

All-in-all, he maintains the two are still friends.
