Serena Williams Talks About Breakup With Common

July 7th, 2010 7:00pm EDT

Tennis champ Serena Williams has broken her silence about her romance with Common, blaming the rapper/actor for the break-up of their relationship.

The couple was rumored to have ended its two-year relationship in April and the hip-hop star recently confirmed he was no longer dating Williams by insisting he was "definitely single." The sporting ace has been quiet about the break-up since the news surfaced but she has opened up about the failed romance in a new interview with Harper's Bazaar magazine.

Williams admits their busy careers often got in the way of spending time together, but claims it was Common who refused to put in the extra effort to make their relationship work.

She tells the magazine, "His schedule is actually worse than mine. He didn't want the responsibility. It's really tough."
