Rita Ora apologised last week after throwing an “inexcusable” 30th birthday party\u00a0with 30 or so friends during London’s second lockdown, but it seems the\u00a0breaking of Covid restrictions\u00a0didn’t stop there.<\/p>\n

The singer has admitted to flying to Egypt by private jet and failing to quarantine for 14 days upon her arrival back in the UK.<\/p>\n

The 30-year-old then threw her “spur of the moment” birthday party just one week later.<\/p>\n

The Mail on Sunday\u00a0has revealed Rita arrived from Cairo on a private jet on November 21 after being paid a six-figure sum to perform at a five-star hotel.<\/p>\n

Government rules clearly show anyone arriving into Britain must spend 14 days in isolation with the singer being forced to issue yet another apology.<\/p>\n

“I recently flew to Egypt to perform at a corporate event for a private company, where my travel party followed protocol and presented negative Covid tests upon entry, as required by Egyptian authorities,” she said in a statement to the publication.<\/p>\n

“Upon my return to Britain, I should have followed government advice and isolated myself for the required period. As you know, I didn\u2019t follow government advice and for that I apologised earlier this week. I apologise again, unreservedly.”<\/p>\n\n

She added that she had since tested negative for the virus, adding, “While I realise the apologetic words of a pop star might not carry much weight, especially one who has broken the rules like I have, I do realise that some might seek to follow my example. My message to them is simple: Please don\u2019t.<\/p>\n

“The guilt and shame I\u2019ve carried this week for my mistake aren\u2019t worth it. Instead, continue to listen to the government advice and the voices of the heroes of the NHS and take the required precautions. I will take the criticisms coming my way because I deserve them.”<\/p>\n

The singer continued, “I hope to one day make it up to the public who have given me so much support over the years and, in particular, make it up to the heroes of the NHS\u2026In the meantime, I will be donating my fee from Egypt to charity.<\/p>\n
