Rita Ora set pulses racing as she showcased her incredible figure in a skimpy bikini during a recent sun-soaked trip to Australia. The 35-year-old singer shared captivating snaps of her holiday to her Instagram Story on Friday, appearing in high spirits as she smiled while posing on the back of a lavish boat.
Stunning Beachside Moments
In one striking photo, Rita revealed her washboard abs as she braved the waves and headed into the ocean. Another image showed the songstress looking sensational in a brown triangle bikini top paired with a boho skirt, perfectly capturing the essence of her Australian adventure.
Family Life Revelations
Beyond the glamorous photos, Rita recently opened up about her personal life, describing her experience as a stepmother as a "real eye opener." After marrying filmmaker Taika Waititi four years ago, Rita became stepmother to his two daughters: Te Kāinga o te Hinekāhu, aged 13, and Matewa Kiritapu, aged nine.
In a rare comment about her family dynamics, Rita told The Sun she finds the stepmother role "easy" but confessed it has fundamentally changed her perspective on life. "I have to say it's been a real eye-opener to understand that sometimes there's more to life than what you care about in that moment," she explained. "I've realised there's so much more, so [becoming a stepmother] did give me that."
Marriage Foundations
Rita previously shared insights into her marriage with Taika, crediting their strong friendship as the cornerstone of their romantic relationship. "Taika and I are basically just best friends and we wanted to just live in that element forever, I guess," she revealed.
The couple, who were close friends for five years before dating, began their romantic relationship in March 2021 and went public that August. They wed in a secret ceremony in August 2022, with Rita breaking tradition by proposing to Taika. Their low-key Los Angeles wedding wasn't confirmed until a year later, which Rita described to Grazia as something they "winged with zero planning."
Daily Family Routine
Rita offered a glimpse into their family life, describing their morning routine: "We wake up, we work out together with the kids running on the treadmills, it's a family affair." This candid revelation shows how the singer has embraced her blended family responsibilities.
Taika Waititi shares his two children with ex-wife Chelsea Winstanley, also 50, from whom he separated in 2018 after seven years of marriage. Rita reflected on finding the right relationship after what she called her "messy twenties," saying that when she got together with Taika, it finally felt "right and safe."
The combination of Rita's glamorous Australian holiday photos and her heartfelt revelations about stepmotherhood provides a multifaceted look at the singer's life beyond the stage and screen.
