Tiffany Haddish's ex-boyfriend Common is being dragged into her court war with former friend Trizah Morris, who is suing the comedian for defamation after being accused of extortion, sources close to the situation told RadarOnline.com exclusively.

We're told Common (real name: Lonnie Rashid Lynn) along with two of Haddish's attorneys will be listed on Morris' witness list as part of the ongoing arbitration battle.

Sources told RadarOnline.com that Morris believes Common was with Haddish when certain events went down and has information relevant to the case.

Morris said she was friends with Haddish from 2011 to 2020 and explained in her lawsuit seeking over $1 million that she tried to resolve the issue at first, claiming she contacted Haddish's attorney as well as Spears' attorney in February 2023 asking them to release a statement clearing her from the extortion claims.

Morris is the mom of the two kids who sued Haddish and fellow comedian Aries Spears in a now-dismissed lawsuit filed in 2022, accusing the comedians of grooming them as children and having them appear in inappropriate sketches.

Haddish and Spears denied the accusations and an attorney for Haddish said the lawsuit was strictly an extortion attempt by Morris.

Morris has denied extortion claims, previously telling RadarOnline.com, "My name and reputation are important to me as I pride myself on being an upstanding member of society."
