In unexpected celeb romance news, Rita Ora has been linked with none other than Brooklyn Beckham.

The singer, 28, dated the famous teen for a few months in 2017 when she was 26 and he was 18, a new report in The Sun states.

A source told the publication that the pair hung out in secret until Brooklyn’s parents found out and put a stop to it.

“Posh saw a couple of texts they’d been sending,” the source said.

“She didn’t want her boy being led astray, and didn’t want them partying together.

“David and Victoria were adamant the pair shouldn’t date and made it very clear they didn’t approve.”

“David was pretty furious when he got wind of their friendship, and Victoria was understandably concerned about the age gap.”

Brooklyn, who turns 20 this March, was the one doing the chasing, the source added.

“There was a definite attraction and some serious snogging.

“While Rita may have initially made the running, Brooklyn seemed keen to pursue it.

“By the end, if anything Brooklyn was the one pursuing Rita.

“He and Rita got on well, had a real laugh and, most importantly, were both single at the time.”

It comes after it was revealed in December that Rita is now dating Andrew Garfield.

A friend of hers has said that the relationship is the “real deal”.

“It is still very early days but they like each other and are seeing what happens.

“Their schedules make things difficult but they have a real connection.”

Brooklyn, meanwhile, is currently loved up with model Hanna Cross.
