Rita teamed her bikini with loose black pants and oversized cat-eye sunglasses.

Since touching down in Sydney, they’ve been spotted shopping in Bondi and frequenting the beach, and even attended the premiere of Being the Ricardos.

Taika is also rumoured to be continuing work on several upcoming films, including Thor: Love and Thunder, which is in post-production.

Looking towards the future, Rita previously told The Independent she would ‘love to have a nice big family’.
‘I didn’t expect to find love in Australia, nor was I looking for it,’ she revealed of her relationship with Taika, 46.
She added she was keen to keep her relationship out of the spotlight to ‘protect it’.

Rita met the Oscar-winning filmmaker in Sydney in February while she was filming The Voice Australia.
A source told The Sun the duo started ‘secretly’ dating in early March, three months before she left Australia for Los Angeles in early June.
‘All their friends know about the relationship – they’re really into each other,’ the insider said at the time.
