Tiffany Haddish relationship timeline
As mentioned, it is not clear when Tiffany Haddish started dating men again, but it is likely a long time after her traumatic incident in 1993. What we do know is that she married William Stewart in 2008, after dating for some time.
Marriage to William Stewart
Her first marriage at 32 was notable because Stewart helped her track down her once-estranged father, who abandoned her when she was three years old. He was able to walk her down the aisle, which was likely her longtime dream; no wonder she said it had been one of the happiest days of her life.
Yet, the marriage did not last as long as expected. In 2011, she filed for divorce in Los Angeles County. According to a memoir she would later write titled The Last Black Unicorn, she revealed that her ex-husband had been physically abusive and was a stalker.
But, after her initial divorce, they married a second time and only finally divorced in 2013. Also, following the damning details contained in the book, Stewart accused her of defamation, libel, and abuse. And although she denied any wrongdoing, he went ahead to sue her for the accusations. There are claims that she and the publisher settled the matter outside of court in a private setting.
Whatever the case, the comedian’s first marriage did not end on a good note.
Hookup with rapper Chingy
Following her failed marriage (or can we say marriages?), Haddish either decided to stay single or just keep things about her relationship away from the media. We rarely heard anything about who the comedian was dating until a 2019 appearance on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show,” where she let the cat out of the bag that she had hooked up with rapper Chingy.
After the revelation, Chingy claimed that he and Tiffany were never intimate. But in 2020, during an interview with Mike Hill for Fox Soul, he admitted that he had indeed hooked up with her. He claimed that he had been pretty wasted at the time it happened, thus, why he initially denied it. However, his brother had convinced him that it happened and was a one-night thing.
