Rita Ora causes a stir after 'date night' tweet with Conor McGregor

Rita Ora‘s at it again – stirring up a Twitter storm, that is.

After Monday night’s Fashion Awards, it didn’t take long for the popstar to take to social media to get tongues wagging after showing the world how cosy she was getting to UFC star Conor McGregor.

It must’ve been a late night for the Your Song singer because she only shared the provocative tweet this morning, just before 10 o’clock.

Why’s it so offensive? Well, we’re glad you asked.

The pair are pictured rather close at the awards show, but just to send the internet into meltdown Ora gave a cheeky wink to the camera and captioned the photos ‘date night’, adding McGregor’s Twitter handle in the post for good measure.

That’d all be fine if the UFC hardman didn’t currently have a girlfriend, Dee Devlin, who’s also the mother of his son, Conor Jr.

Awkward…

Thus far, Dee’s not responded to Rita’s naughty tweet, but you can bet she’ll have something to say on Instagram to her 1.2 million followers before long.

This could turn ugly rather quickly. And it’s safe to say people on the internet aren’t impressed by her antics.

The other week the happy family of three visited Father Christmas together – a moment Dee shared with her followers on Instagram.

Be sure to keep an eye on how this one plays out because, let’s face it, someone’s going to have sent a retaliation tweet before the day’s over.

We’re not saying Rita’s Poison, but R.I.P. if Dee responds – we’re sure she’d rather be Anywhere else.
