Rita Ora is joined by bikini-clad Maya Henry as she tops up her tan in a blue patterned two-piece during poolside appearance after stellar performance at Cartier show in Madrid
Rita Ora was in good company as she unwound in Madrid on Tuesday, shortly after flying to the Spanish capital to perform on behalf of extravagant jewellery brand Cartier.
The British singer, 31, was accompanied by ever-present boyfriend Taika Waititi and American model Maya Henry, who appears to have bounced back following her abrupt separation from One Direction star Liam Payne.
Rita’s close friend Vas J Morgan also made an appearance as the group made the most of soaring Mediterranean temperatures the morning after her latest live performance.

The singer looked toned and trim as she reclined on a sun-lounger close to their outdoor pool during a short stay in Madrid, ostensibly to make a series of public appearances.
Joining Rita, Texan model Maya, 21, was an equally engaging sight courtesy of her green string bikini while settling down for a day of rest and relaxation in the Spanish city.
Evidently in high spirits, she greeted onlookers with a coy smile as she reclined alongside Rita, her eyes shielded behind a pair of heavily tinted sunglasses.

New Zealand born director Taika occupied a sun-lounger alongside his girlfriend, and the tattooed filmmaker caught the eye in a blue cap and patterned Bermuda shorts while enjoying the sunshine.
Despite rising temperatures, Rita opted for a quintessentially British cup of tea provided by staff as she kickstarted her day in the grounds of their lavish five-star hotel.
Close friend Maya, understood to be single following her split from Liam, later covered up by pulling on a white towelling robe before making her inside.

Reports emerged earlier last week that the British songstress and Taika were engaged and planning an imminent, low-key ceremony abroad before celebrating with their fellow A-listers in a big London bash later this year.
It is understood that Rita, who is working on several films and The Voice Australia, and Taika, who is planning a string of movies, hope to tie the knot once their work commitments have wrapped up.
A friend told The Sun: ‘This isn’t about them doing a big showy thing and crowing about it beforehand. It’s just about them being in love and deciding the time is right to formalise their relationship. They couldn’t be happier.

‘They didn’t do a whole, “Will you marry me?” thing and an Instagram post. There’s no ring or big build-up. They just got closer and closer and eventually said to each other almost simultaneously, “I want to marry you.”
The pal added that there are ‘a few details to iron out’ but the nuptials are ‘coming soon’.
The couple began dating in March 2021 and just five months later in August, the pair were reportedly already discussing marriage.
Taika was previously married to film producer Chelsea Winstanley, but the pair are believed to have quietly split in 2018.
The pair share two daughters: Te Hinekāhu, ten, and Matewa Kiritapu, six.
