Rita Ora and partner Taika Waititi ‘secretly marry in intimate ceremony in London’

Rita Ora and partner Taika Waititi are believed to have got together last year and it has now been reported that the couple have wed in an 'intimate ceremony' – with them said to be planning a big party

Rita Ora and partner Taika Waititi have reportedly tied the knot and the couple are said to have exchanged vows in an intimate and "special" ceremony held in London recently.

The singer, 31, and the filmmaker, 46, are understood to have been in a relationship since last year, with rumours of them getting engaged having circulated in recent months.

Now, it has been speculated the pair have got married, with director Taika – whose credits include Thor: Ragnarok and Jojo Rabbit – sporting a wedding band in a photo last week.

It's been claimed that their wedding was an intimate event, though the couple are said to be preparing a "big, showbiz-style bash" to celebrate their nuptials with more guests.

A source told the Sun : "It was a really intimate ceremony and super special for everyone there. Their nearest and dearest can see how madly in love they are.

“Despite living in the spotlight, Rita is determined to keep the relationship as private as possible and didn’t want to make a big song and dance about the wedding."

They teased that a "big, showbiz-style" party is being planned to celebrate Rita and Taika's nuptials, though the source has warned against expecting to see it "flogged to the highest-bidding magazine."
