Rita Ora opens up on baby plans with new husband Taika Waititi
Rita Ora is on a roll. After a decade of dishing up chart-topping hits – and some iconic fashion looks – she is now ready to put her acting career centre stage, following her marriage to Academy Award-winning film director Taika Waititi.The star is known for her bubbly, larger-than-life personality, but when it comes to her private life – and in particular her relationship with Taika, 48 – she typically remains tight-lipped.
Until now, that is. In a rare, tell-all interview, the 33-year-old Masked Singer judge has lifted the lid on her life away from the glare of the public eye, from her top-secret wedding in August 2022 to her hopes of settling down and having kids. “I wanted to keep [the wedding] to myself for as long as I could,” explains Rita, whose famous exes include musicians Calvin Harris and A$AP Rocky, and actor Andrew Garfield. “I’ve been in the public eye for a while now and I’ve always given everything I’m part of to the public.
It felt nice to have something that was a secret for a bit.” The couple – who first met at a barbecue in 2018, but didn’t officially get together until 2021 – only confirmed they’d tied the knot a few months before their first wedding anniversary. “A lot of my friends were like, ‘Oh my God, we’ve missed it.’ I just told them that we will figure something out.
It felt chill – because my life is not chill,” she says. Rita popped the question herself while the pair were on holiday in Palm Springs in the summer of 2022.
