Taraji P. Henson is a single lady again. According to a new report by MediaTakeOut, the "Empire" star has split from NFL star Kelvin Hayden whom she started dating less than a year ago. He was allegedly the one who ended the relationship and has now moved on with a blonde girl from Chicago.

"[Kelvin] is dating a very pretty blonde from Chicago," the source tells the news outlet. "They both live there, and Taraji lives in L.A." As for the reason behind the two lovers' breakup, the source explains, "[Kelvin] is a very successful businessman and he doesn't need any of Taraji's drama."

Henson and Hayden, a former star of Chicago Bears and Atlanta Falcons, began dating in December 2015. There's still no official word if the couple's romance is really over. Based on pictures on their respective social media accounts, the two appear to be doing just fine.
