Nick Cannon and Amber Rose have something rather unfortunate in common. Each person happens to be one half of a soon-to-be-divorced couple. Both marriages will end after shocking the public with the sudden news.
Along with a recent business venture came the rumors that the two are looking to each other as a way to move on from previous relationships.
At least one insider is claiming that the rumors are absolutely untrue.
The anonymous source allegedly told Hollywood Life that “[they’re strictly together for] friendship and business. More business than anything.”
If you were hoping that Cannon and Rose were going to debut at some point as a new couple, it sounds like that’s not a remote possibility.
Also nixed are rumors that Nick Cannon himself is to blame for the largely unanticipated end to Amber Rose and Wiz Khalifa’s marriage.

The insider told Hollywood Life, “Nick’s not a part of Amber’s relationship with Wiz. He’s got respect for both Amber and Wiz.”
The anonymous source added that Cannon was “shocked” at the news of their breakup “just like everybody else.”
Gossip surrounding the pair had picked up following reports that Nick had been spending time with Amber’s young son just days before she announced her divorce.
Though infidelity is a popular rumor used to explain the unexpected breakup, Amber Rose has said that she was faithful to Wiz Khalifa.
On the other hand, the 30-year-old recently took to Twitter to declare that her 27-year-old former beau “can’t say the same”.

The set of tweets may be the closest we ever get to an explanation for why Rose and Khalifa are no longer together.
The Twitter statement represents yet something else Amber Rose has in common with Nick Cannon.
The America’s Got Talent host recently got on Twitter to blast members of the media for allegedly making up lies about the nature of his breakup with Mariah Carey.
He also claimed that quotes were falsely attributed to him in the news.
