JNow it’s official: Rita Ora got married in secret. Speaking on the podcast “Jaime Winstone’s Greatest Night Ever,” the British singer confirmed that she said yes to filmmaker Taika Waititi a few weeks ago. “I’m in love, I’m very much in love, I’m in love, amen,” Ora said.
In mid-August, the first rumors about the wedding circulated when fans noticed a simple gold ring on the finger of the 31-year-old singer (“Your Song”). At the time, friends indicated that the couple had secretly said yes in various media.
Ora is said to have romantically discovered the New Zealand director in spring 2021. A few months later, she walked the red carpet with Waititi for the first time at the premiere of the action film The Suicide Squad in Los Angeles. For the filmmaker, who won a screenwriting Oscar for the tragic comedy Jojo Rabbit two years ago, it was second-course down the aisle.
He split from New Zealand film producer Chelsea Winstanley in 2018 after eight years of marriage and the birth of two daughters. It’s the first marriage for Ora, who counts Bruno Mars, Calvin Harris and Rob Kardashian among her past lovers.
