Rita Ora apologized on Monday for violating UK corona rules. The singer turned thirty years old last week and gave a party for friends and acquaintances in a restaurant in London, which is in violation of the corona rules that currently apply there. After British media opened up with the news, Ora went through the dust on her Instagram Stories.
The singer admits she attended a “small gathering” to celebrate her 30th birthday. She says that the decision to celebrate her birthday was made at the last minute and that it seemed okay to do so, as the lockdown in the UK ends on December 2.
“I deeply regret not following the rules and understand that this puts others at risk,” said Ora. “This was a serious and unforgivable misjudgment. I now understand how irresponsible my behavior was and take full responsibility.”
“I am especially ashamed because I know firsthand how hard people are fighting this virus and I am aware of how much people and companies have sacrificed to keep us safe. While this does not make it any better, I would like my sincere apologies “, concludes the singer, known for hits like Anywhere in Your Song.
Daily Mail reports on the basis of sources that Ora has to pay a fine of about 11,000 euros to the authorities. About thirty people would have been present at the party, including models Cara and Poppy Delevingne.
