None of this should come asa surpise - from rumours of a fling with Jay Z to a clash of musical interest with ex Calvin Harris, Rita has been the centre of some of the biggest A-list feuds in recent years.

Here we reveal all of her celebrity run-ins …

BEYONCE

Beyonce’s 2016 album Lemonade centres around the issue of infidelity, detailing the story of a woman who has been played by her partner.

In the song Sorry she hints at Jay Z cheating with someone called “Becky with the good hair”

Beyonce sings, “He only want me when I’m not there, he better call Becky with the good hair.”

Speculation immediately went onto overdrive about who is this “Becky” who had apparently lead Jay Z astray?

Rita Ora was immediately pipped as a suspect as she was signed by Jay Z’s record label.

Rita started tongues wagging she was “Becky” when she posted a photo wearing a lemon bikini and a J pendant necklace.

However, she later slammed the accusation and tweeted her fans to let them know she definitely WASN’T Becky, and people should just enjoy Beyonce’s Lemonade.

Later she posted a picture of herself cuddling Beyonce and captioned it: “Becky who? HAHAHAHA I TOLD YA!”

CALVIN HARRIS

Rita and her ex-boyfriend Calvin Harris were the original showbiz feud after they ended their relationship back in 2014.

The former couple’s public bust up turned toxic back in 2015 when Calvin refused to let Rita use any of the material he had collaborated with her on for her album – and in turn banned her from performing their No1 single I Will Never Let You Down.

However, a source claimed that the pair had resolved their differences three years later.

Target said: “It was such a relief to both of them that they could move on and put things behind them.

“At the end of the day they had a lot of good times together and it was sad that was tainted by how bitter the split was at times.”

RIHANNA

The pair’s long-running feud is no secret, with reports claiming that RiRi believes Rita was only ever signed to her label Roc Nation to make her nervous.

Rihanna had also shared her horror after Rita filmed a sexual music video with her abusive ex Chris Brown for their single Body on Me.

And The Sun’s Dan Wootton revealed that Rihanna had even banned Rita from her Met Gala party.

The pair continued to be at loggerheads after Rita went to war with her former record label Roc Nation in 2015 – claiming she’d been neglected and demanding to be released from her contract.

It was later claimed the Bajan star used her influence to ensure Rita’s career was not treated as a priority by Roc Nation, who she is also signed to.

There has been no sign of an olive leaf from either singer.

The Kardashians are likely to have a bit of beef with Rita after her messy split with Rob Kardashian.

The singer split from Rob in 2012, before he accused her of cheating on him, but she kept silent on the unsubstantiated claims at the time.

According to TMZ Kim Kardashian later refused to sit next to her brother’s ex at the Music Video Awards back in 2014.

TMZ said this was because Kim blamed her “for screwing with [her brother] Rob’s head.”

However, the singer previously claimed that she has “nothing but positive thoughts” for her ex.

DUA LIPA

The pair have plenty in common, having both attended the same school after moving from their native Kosovo.

However, it was their similarities that drove a wedge between the two singers, The Sun previously revealed.

According to sources Dua quietly turned on Rita over constant comparisons between the pair — and relations are now so strained they avoided each other at the Met Gala last year.

An insider said: “It’s a shame, as they used to be very close and Dua spoke a lot about how much she admired Rita.

“Dua even said she wanted to be just like Rita in the future. But now things have gone south dramatically and she is trying to distance herself — and she’s making no secret of it in the industry.”
