Rita Ora and Taika Waititi exchanged vows in a discreet ceremony in August last year, and their connection remains as vibrant as ever, with Rita playfully describing her husband as a ‘s** god.'
During an appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, the 32-year-old singer engaged in a word game where she was tasked to encapsulate various celebrities in a single term.
Host Andy Cohen humorously connected this to Rita's new song, “Dirty Vibe,” prompting her to share her impressions of different showbiz personalities in a segment called ‘What's their aura?'
alongside fellow guest Diplo.
The playful banter ensued as Diplo labeled Justin Bieber as ‘content' and they both agreed that Snoop Dogg appeared ‘fried.'
However, the spotlight was on Taika Waititi when Rita hesitantly but cheekily dubbed him a ‘s** god,' leading to a blush-inducing moment for the singer.
This isn't the first time Rita has made suggestive remarks about her husband.
Earlier this year, during an interview on This Morning, she hinted at their vibrant relationship, expressing appreciation for his stimulating mental presence.
Reflecting on her marriage, Rita affectionately shared, “I've got a husband!
Can you believe it?”
She praised Taika for his multifaceted creativity, attributing his influence to expanding her own artistic horizons organically.
Although the exact circumstances of Rita and Taika's initial encounter remain shrouded in mystery, their journey from friendship to romance commenced in 2021 after being introduced by actor Robert Pattinson at a barbecue hosted by Taika.
Bonding over shared roots in working-class backgrounds despite their contrasting upbringings in New Zealand and Kosovo, they nurtured a strong friendship that eventually blossomed into a romantic involvement amidst speculation sparked by social media posts and public appearances.
Their first official public appearance as a couple occurred at the premiere of The Suicide Squad in Los Angeles, followed by a series of high-profile events, including the Met Gala and MTV Europe Music Awards, showcasing their mutual support and admiration for each other's professional endeavors.
As their relationship intensified, culminating in the exchange of wedding rings in August 2022, speculations were confirmed by close sources, disclosing a modest ceremony attended by only three guests, emphasizing the couple's preference for privacy and intimacy in their union.
Rita finally acknowledged her marital status in January 2023, declaring herself ‘officially off the market,' marking a significant milestone in their relationship.
Crossing the boundary between personal and professional realms, the duo collaborated on the music video for Rita's track “Praising You,” highlighting their harmonious partnership and shared creative synergy.
Embracing their shared sense of humor and artistic inclinations, Rita and Taika's relationship thrives on mutual respect, creative collaboration, and unwavering support, solidifying their status as not just partners in love but also in artistry.
