Rita Ora has just clarified that she is married to Taika Waititi, putting an end to months of rumours that the couple had secretly tied the knot, and she has now displayed the breathtaking ring that he gave her.
After relocating to Australia in 2021 in order to take a position as a coach on the local edition of The Voice, a panellist from The Masked Singer UK who is also a musician started a relationship with the director of Thor and JoJo Rabbit.
Following the observation that both Rita, 32, and Taika, 47, were spotted wearing rings on their left hands, rumours began to circulate that the two had secretly tied the knot.
During an interview that she gave on Heart Breakfast the previous week on Friday, Rita stated that she was “officially off the market.”
Later, while appearing on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon on Wednesday night, Rita chose to show off her ring and explain that she decided to take Taika shopping so that she could point out exactly which ring she wanted to buy. Taika was able to do this because Rita took her shopping.
Jimmy sent his best wishes to the new bride before the show began and welcomed her to the programme.

Rita thanked him and then continued by saying that she wanted to display her ring for him to see.
‘Because I love you so much, I actually have never shown anyone my ring,’ she said.
‘You know, it’s my first time showing my ring, but because I love you and I feel like you’re part of our relationship weirdly because we watch you every night… is that creepy?’
Jimmy then joked that he felt like he was ‘part of the relationship as well’.

Rita said that she wanted to display a close-up as she held out her hand for Jimmy to see the emerald and diamond ring that had a thin gold band surrounding it. Jimmy was able to see the ring.
The “I Will Never Let You Down” singer then addressed the audience and stated, “I’ll show you guys too.”
She displayed the ring to the audience in the studio as well as the cameras, and Jimmy exclaimed, “Oh la la, that’s gorgeous.” As she did so, she held up her hand.
Rita retorted, “He did good,” while alluding to Taika’s choice.
Having said that, Rita did make it clear that she had provided her new spouse with some direction.
‘He did good,’ Rita responded, referring to Taika.
However, Rita did clarify that she had given her new husband some guidance.
‘Well, I may have stroked him, in the right direction,’ she said.
‘Because I think, like, when you know what you want. I felt like I really knew I wanted to be with this person, and I just wanted it to feel really right.
‘So, I may have taken him to the shop, and I may have pointed out exactly what ring I wanted.’
After that, they continued their conversation by discussing Rita’s newest track, You Only Love Me, which she would later perform while dressed in a wedding gown and veil in a bright pink colour.
