Revisiting The Waititi-Ora-Thompson Love Saga: From Sydney to GQ Confessions
The year 2021: When everything seemed to revolve around pandemic news and lockdown tales, the internet had its own distraction. Three famous faces, Taika Waititi, Rita Ora, and Tessa Thompson, became the talk of the town, thanks to some very cozy photographs from Down Under.
From Throuple Rumors to Taika's Takedown
As reported by Glamour, the story goes that Waititi was in Australia, immersing himself in directing the epic Thor: Love and Thunder, featuring none other than Westworld's star, Tessa Thompson. All seemed regular, until a rather 'regular' day became anything but. Snapped in Sydney, Waititi, his then newly-confirmed girlfriend Rita Ora, and Thompson shared an embrace that set gossip mills ablaze. Throuple rumors weren't just knocking; they had busted the door wide open!
But, in his signature unflappable style, Waititi responded, “I think in the world of the internet, everything goes away pretty quick. And also, is it that big a deal? No, not really. I was doing nothing wrong. It’s fine.” Words that were the quintessential equivalent of 'move along, nothing to see here.'
Rita Ora's Retrospective Reflection
Although Waititi's breezy reaction was memorable, fans have eagerly waited for Ora to have her say. Two years after the snapshot that put a pause on pandemic chat, Rita finally gave her two cents. Speaking to British GQ in early 2023, Ora mused, “You can't train for this shit,” about the challenges of tabloid turmoil. On the issue itself, she shared, “I think when some things are so absurd, and it's hard to fathom any sense of it, you just have to ignore it." From casual rendezvous in Sydney to tying the knot in 2022, Waititi and Ora have had quite the journey. And as the singer’s revelation shows, sometimes in the world of celeb gossip, silence truly is golden.
