Rita Ora breaks silence on ‘throuple’ with Taika Waititi and Tessa Thompson
Rita Ora has broken her silence over rumours she was in a 'throuple' with Taika Waititi and Tessa Thompson.
The Masked Singer judge, 32 and the Thor director, 47 - who reportedly got hitched last year - got tongues wagging when they were snapped with the Creed star, 39 during a boozy drinking session.
The trio looked so close, fans assumed they were in a 'throuple' - a la David Haye, Una Healy and Sian Osbourne.
Speaking ahead of the launch of her new album, Rita said: "Have you ever been in a situation where you’ve had a lot of drinks and everyone’s your best friend?
"And then the next day you’re like, 'I was talking to this person in the smoking area for four hours and I’ve got no idea who they are?'

The acclaimed director and Rita reportedly tied the knot last summer with the couple said to have exchanged vows in an intimate and "special" ceremony held in London.
