However, Rita dispelled any claims that the bridal gown was her actual wedding dress, after she finally confirmed that she has tied the knot with Taika Waititi.

When asked by host Alex Jones about the gown, Rita said: ‘No it wasn’t actually the one that I wore! 

‘It was fun to do a spin because it was my version of my inspirations – Edward Scissorhands, Heathers, Bridezilla – I’ve always wanted to play that character.’

Though it was not her actual wedding dress, Rita went on to speak about how her personal life influenced her single, admitting her latest track is her most ‘honest’.

‘This is a real new era for me and I’m so excited to share my story with everyone,’ she added.

‘Learning to let go of the past to make way for new experiences is a deeply personal process, and one I felt compelled to document through my music – the journey was not always easy, but I’ve come out of it stronger and filled with more love than I ever thought possible.’

You Only Love Me is the first track to be lifted from the internationally acclaimed singer-songwriter’s highly anticipated upcoming album – a deeply personal body of work intrinsically linked to a new chapter in Rita’s life and career.
