Rita Ora Shocks with Her Bold Proposal to Taika Waititi in Palm Springs!
RITA ORA TURNS PROPOSAL ON ITS HEAD BY GETTING DOWN ON ONE KNEE FOR TAika WAITITI!
In a shocking turn of events, pop sensation Rita Ora has revealed that she proposed to her husband, Taika Waititi, during a romantic getaway to Palm Springs - and we're talking about a major role-reversal here! The 34-year-old singer, who tied the knot with the 49-year-old filmmaker in 2022, shared the juicy details on Davina McCall's Begin Again podcast.
According to Rita, she planned the perfect surprise for Taika during their intimate vacation. "We were in a hotel room in Palm Springs, like a really nice, fancy one filled up with balloons and cake, which is my favourite thing in the world," she gushed. And just when you thought it couldn't get any more romantic, Rita got down on one knee and popped the question!
But don't worry, Taika wasn't oblivious to the proposal - quite the opposite! "He's like 'What the hell is it? Valentine's Day?' I was like 'Oh no, if you're gonna say no, I'm gonna have to take my clothes off,'" Rita confessed with a laugh. And in case you're wondering, Taika absolutely loved the surprise.
This isn't the first time Rita has stolen the spotlight - after all, she's been making waves in the music industry for years. But this latest revelation takes her romantic gestures to a whole new level! Who knew that Rita Ora was the proposal mastermind?
Rita and Taika's whirlwind romance started back in 2021, but they didn't rush into marriage until August 4, 2022, in Los Angeles. And get this - they planned the entire ceremony in just two weeks to ensure Taika's daughters could attend! Talk about a family affair!
In an exclusive interview with Hunger magazine earlier this year, Rita credited their strong friendship as the key component to their romantic relationship. "Taika and I are basically just best friends and we wanted to just live in that element for ever, I guess," she gushed.
And it's no surprise that Taika has been a constant source of inspiration for Rita - after all, her latest album You & I was heavily influenced by their marriage! "I felt like it was really necessary to be an open book… I wanted to introduce people to where I'm at in my life now — like a diary," she revealed.
Before tying the knot with Taika, Rita had a string of high-profile relationships - from her pre-fame years with Bruno Mars (yes, you read that right!) to her romance with reality star Rob Kardashian and even a brief fling with Calvin Harris!
But let's get back to the proposal - because, honestly, it's all anyone can talk about! According to Rita, she wanted to do something special for Taika, something that would make him feel loved and cherished. And judging by his reaction, I'd say mission accomplished!
