British pop star, Rita Ora, has tendered an unreserved apology for breaching the government’s COVID-19 guidelines yet again.

The singer who had previously breached the COVID-19 guidelines during her 30th birthday on November 30, breached the restrictions for the second time after returning to the country from Egypt.

Ora who attended a private performance on 21 November returned to the UK the next day and failed to self-isolate after for two weeks, as required by the government.

The Let You Love Me singer, after much criticism, admitted to being wrong and as such vowed to donate her fee from the concert to charity.

“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.

“Upon my return to Britain, I should have followed government advice and isolated myself for the required period. As you know, I didn’t follow government advice and for that I apologised earlier this week. I apologise again, unreservedly.”

After reassuring fans she had tested negative for Covid-19, she continued: “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’t.

“The guilt and shame I’ve carried this week for my mistake aren’t 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.”

She added that she hoped “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”.
