Rita Ora and Taika Waititi hand-in-hand as they make red carpet debut at The Suicide Squad premiere

Rita Ora and Taika Waititi made their red carpet debut as a couple at The Suicide Squad premiere on Monday evening. 

The 30-year-old singer walked hand in hand with the actor-director, 45, who plays Starro in the film, as they aired their romance to the world. 

The public appearance comes just two months after the pair — who have been linked since April — shared a very steamy three-way kiss with actress Tessa Thompson in Sydney, Australia.

The Anywhere singer wore an edgier take on a suit dress that featured a structured skirt that jutted out on the sides and fashioned into a pseudo-bow.  

The tailored white garment showed off the sides of her midriff and cleavage, and included an open back that showed off her myriad of tattoos. 

Her blonde hair was pulled back into a high ponytail and she added glitz to the look with studded stilettos and a pair of dangling diamond earrings. 

And for Taika’s big night he kept it simple in a grey suit with a slightly unbuttoned white collared shirt and black dress shoes.

Walking the carpet together they looked undeniably into each other as they lovingly gazed in each other’s eyes and affectionately touched hands. 

For many of the photos Rita kept him close as she slipped her arm into his as they grinned. 

And at one point he seemed to subtly hype his date up as he pointed his finger at her with a pleasurable look on his face.

The pair first sparked romance rumors back in April after she shared a photo of the Jojo Rabbit director throwing his arms around her neck, though his face was shielded by a baseball cap. 

Both were in Australia at the time as Rita was filming The Voice and Taika was in the process of filming Thor: Love And Thunder. 

A source told The Sun that the pair had been secretly dating since early March. ‘They’ve been a couple since early March but kept things low key. However, all their friends know about the relationship – they’re really into each other.’

And in May they caused a stir after they were seen sharing a few kisses with actress Tessa Thompson, 37, — who has a role in his film Love And Thunder.

Following a night of partying the three were seen on a balcony in the morning knocking back mimosas before they all swapped saliva.

Taika had his arm around each women and one hand on Tessa’s butt as they all leaned in together. 

Other images showed Tessa and Rita kissing while he watched on before he and Ora engaged in their own makeout session independently.

Speaking out about the images in a June interview with the Sydney Morning Herald, Waititi was unphased. 

Asked if he was bothered by the publicity he said: ‘Not really. I think in the world of the internet, everything goes away pretty quick. Is it that big a deal? No Not really. I was doing nothing wrong. It’s fine.’ 

Waititi was previously married to Chelsea Winstanley for seven years before they split in 2018. The pair share two daughters together: Matewa, six, and Te, nine. 

And Rita was in a relationship with filmmaker Romain Gavras dating back to 2019 but their split was confirmed in March.
