Why did Rita Ora and Andrew Watt split up?

Despite their high-profile relationship, neither Rita nor Andrew released a statement announcing their break-up.

To this date, neither has elaborated on why they decided to part ways so right now, fans are none the wiser on why this couple walked away from their relationship.

However, Rita has confirmed that she is single and has also since been linked to Andrew Garfield.

What has Andrew Watt said about Rita Ora?

Despite Rita previously insisting she and Andrew are just good friends, she has gushed about him on social media - and he has returned the favour.

After missing his celebrations in October, Rita posted a snap of them cosying up, with the caption: “Happy birthday baby.”

She also posted another pic on Snapchat of her laughing as the pair enjoyed a casual dinner together.

Andrew hasn’t exactly been holding back with his feelings for Rita, either.

He said: "I do not look at her like RihannaKaty Perry, any of those people. I literally see her as, like, Janis Joplin, Ella Fitzgerald, Donna Summer."

"I want to experience everything with that person - I love really hard."
