Rita Ora and her new man, Taika Waititi, were photographed getting cozy together, joined by actress Tessa Thompson, this weekend, sparking loud chatter about the trio being in an open relationship. The Thor and Creed actress was spotted that same day kissing a third person — hunky model Zac Stenmark.
On Sunday, 30-year-old British singer Rita Ora was spotted with her boyfriend, film director Taika Waititi, as they cuddled up together while enjoying a few drinks and cigarettes.
Ora and Thompson were having fun at a party at Waititi’s Sydney home.
Rita Ora, who was wearing a figure-hugging black dress with a tan jacket complementing her dyed hair, leaned in for kisses from Taika Waititi, 45, and laughed and smiled alongside him. Actress Tessa Thompson, 37, is starring in the latest Thor movie directed by Waititi.
The trio was relaxing on a balcony at Waititi’s mansion in Sydney, where he is living while working on Thor: Love and Thunder, starring Chris Hemsworth and Natalie Portman.
They were out partying on Saturday before settling down for a more chilled-out Sunday the morning after. Waititi was wearing a white T-shirt, blue shirt, and jeans, as he appeared relaxed and happy with both women at his side.
Ora and Waititi shaded their eyes from the light with dark sunglasses. The “Hot Right Now” singer has reportedly moved in with Waititi after she spent some time in Sydney for the filming of The Voice Australia, alongside fellow judges Keith Urban, Jessica Mauboy, and Guy Sebastian.
After breaking up with Romain Gavras earlier this year, Rita Ora made her relationship with Taika Waititi official when they attended the premiere of RuPaul’s Drag Race Down Under last month.
The couple was seen sitting together on the front row at Sydney Opera House, although they avoided photographers on the red carpet earlier on.
And last week, they were seen joining Chris Hemsworth, his friend, Aaron Grist, and Luciana Barrosa — Matt Damon‘s wife — for lunch at a restaurant.
The same day Tessa Thompson and model Zac Stenmark were pictured sharing passionate kisses as they strolled around Australia.
After her romantic session with Rita Ora and director Taika Waititi, Thompson seemed delighted as she and Stenmark walked around a rich neighborhood.
Between make-out sessions, the duo chatted and laughed with each other. Social media lit up immediately with fans rushing to put a label on what they were seeing.
Some said Thompson might be polyamorous, while others were certain that the actress formed a threesome with Ora and Waititi. Thompson, who previously dated music star Janelle Monáe, came out as bisexual in 2018.
Talking about her upbringing, she said she was raised free to be “anything that you want to be.” She also told Porter magazine: “I want everyone else to have that freedom and support that I have from my loved ones. But so many people don’t. So, do I have a responsibility to talk about that? Do I have a responsibility to say in a public space that this is my person?”
Most commenters agree that the actress is having an interesting summer.
