They made sure to avoid taking photos together at the event at the centre for people affected by violence but did manage to raise a few eyebrows.
According to an insider for TMZ, the former couple were spotted chatting it up in a back room before she spoke at the private event.
The gossip publication also claimed that the two left in separate cars after the event.
Despite avoiding taking photos together, Serena and Common did take a photo with Compton Mayor Aja Brown.

They have continued to maintain a friendship since.

It was quite a busy weekend for the champion tennis players as they had tennis courts dedicated to their sister Yetunde Price the next day on Saturday.

'We are really excited to be here,' Serena said. 'Driving here brought back so many memories. We definitely want to see some more champions come from these courts.'
