BUZZ: Taika Waititi reveals wife Rita Ora proposed to him: ‘I said yes instantly’

to Vogue, the “Thor: Love and Thunder” director, 47, recalled the moment the “I Will Never Let You Down” hitmaker, 32, asked him to marry her a year ago.

“She proposed to me, and I said ‘yes’ instantly,” he told the outlet.

Ora proposed to the filmmaker during their vacation in Palm Springs last summer, just weeks before the pair tied the knot in an impromptu ceremony at their Los Angeles home in August 2022.

“There were about eight people there — just close friends and family, and parents on Zoom,” Waititi said, adding that Ora’s sister Elena and his daughters Te Kāinga o te Hinekāhu, 11, and Matewa Kiritapu, 7, attended the at-home ceremony.

“It was really us and my sister, Elena,” the singer chimed in, quipping, “Elena to the rescue.”

Elsewhere in the interview, Ora revealed the “perfect” Tom Ford wedding dress she wore to marry Waititi.

She called Ford “one of my favorite designers of all time and favorite humans in general,” and described getting married in his ornate lace gown as a “dream come true.” 

“And because it wasn’t planned, I didn’t know if the right dress was even going to be in town, and I just took the risk and went to the Tom Ford shop, and they had it perfectly waiting with the veil, in my size, no alterations needed to be done,” the “Fifty Shades of Grey” actress revealed.

“I mean, it was like it was meant to be, to be honest. And it just made me so happy,” Ora raved to the fashion mag about her long-sleeve white lace, one-shouldered column dress. 

The Albanian beauty’s now-husband wore a dapper, subtly pinstriped Brunello Cucinelli suit. 

The “Anywhere” singer wore two other Tom Ford creations for the low-key reception, first donning a sexy ruffled dress with a plunging neckline, then a sheer top with white lace bra and pants to dance the night away with an Elvis impersonator.

In January, the singer confirmed the rumor that she and Waititi got married while promoting her wedding-themed “You Only Love Me” music video and showing off her pricey emerald engagement ring.

The pair’s love story kickstarted in 2018 when they first met each other at a cookout that Waititi hosted in 2018.

But it wasn’t until 2021 that the pair began dating.
