Reports State That Rita Ora Will Marry Taika Waititi This Summer

It seems like Simon Cowell isn’t the only talent show mogul set to wed this summer. Rita Ora is reportedly set to marry her boyfriend of over a year, Taika Waititi. A source close to the couple confirmed their status to The Sun on June 7. The source explained that the build up to the marriage didn’t involve popping the question or a multiple million dollar ring. Instead as they grew closer they mutually decided to wed.

“This isn’t about them doing a big showy thing and crowing about it beforehand. It’s just about them being in love and deciding the time is right to formalise their relationship,” the source said. “They couldn’t be happier.”
