Taika Waititi revealed an “R” tattoo in a Gothic font on his right hand as a tribute to his wife Rita Ora.
Taika Waititi and Rita Ora’s love is written in ink.
The “Jojo Rabbit” director and the British pop star recently confirmed they got married last year — and now, Waititi’s revealed a permanent tribute to his wife.
The 47-year-old filmmaker posted a close-up photo of a new tattoo inked by celebrity artist Winterstone — the letter “R” in a Gothic font on the top of his hand — on Instagram Wednesday, joking in his caption, “I love Rugby.”
Friends and fans flocked to the comment section, with Kate Beckinsale writing, “Awwwww❤️❤️❤️” and Diplo joking, “It’s a great game.”
Fans also pointed out that the initiative could serve a greater purpose, writing, “Not me thinking it was to specify your right hand” and, “do you have L on the left hand.”
Others joked that the “R” could stand for Waititi’s BFF Rhys Darby, Rihanna, Ragnarok, rhubarb, or something (or someone) else entirely. Some suggested that Ora ink a “T” to proclaim her love of tennis as well.
It’s unclear whether Ora plans to return the favor by inking a tribute to her husband, but she did give a nod to their relationship at her recent single release party with her manicure, showing off black nails with a gothic “T” and “R” on each hand.
After Ora’s music video about a wedding, the couple confirmed their engagement.

And while she sported a ton of silver jewelry with her barely-there feather boa look for the event which celebrated her wedding-themed song “You Only Love Me” the “Masked Singer UK” judge recently revealed her emerald engagement ring from Waititi, which experts tell Page Six Style could be worth $500,000.
