Washington DC, Mar 9 (ANI): American comedian Chris Rock is finally single as he split with girlfriend Megalyn Echikunwoke after four years of dating.

Chris and Megalyn began dating in 2016 and reports said that the Almost Family star had moved into Rock's home in New Jersey.

The pair split up privately a few months ago before he stole the show at the Oscars where he poked fun of Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, according to reports.

Echikunwoke was the comedian's first girlfriend since he split from wife Malaak Compton-Rock, with whom he shares two daughters Zahra and Lola.
