Rita Ora has admitted she “forgot” she used to date Rob Kardashian when quizzed about their romance in a recent interview.

If, like Rita, you’re struggling to recall their relationship, allow us to refresh your memory. The popstar dated Kim and co’s brother for two months at the start of her career in 2012. At the time, it was claimed they fizzled out due to her “hectic work schedule”.

Fast forward eight years and it appears Rita’s relationship with Rob has completely slipped her mind.

“Oh, I forgot about that,” she told Sunday Times Style magazine.

"It was very short-lived. I was so young. It was fun. It was very, very fun, I guess. That's all I remember."

Although Rita has clearly put their relationship well and truly behind her, a devastated Rob hit out at the singer on social media at the time of the split.

Rita Ora 'launches probe to find birthday party whistleblower'

Rita is now thought to be dating filmmaker Romain Gavras, although she admitted she’s not sure what love feels like. She said, “I don't know yet. I don't really know, I don't know how it feels. How does anyone know anything?

“No, let me correct that. I don't want it to be like, ’Rita doesn't know if she's ever been in love’. I've had amazing moments with amazing people. But in anything you just want to be happy. I guess if love is happiness, then, yeah.”

This all comes after reports claimed Rita was given “a ticking off” by her parents Besnik and Vera Sahatçiu after she broke lockdown restrictions to throw a birthday party attended by more than 30 pals.
