According to Ora, being in the public eye has taught her the importance of keeping her private life as private as possible.

“I just think, respectfully, privacy is important,” she said, adding, “Yeah… I learned a lot in my 20s.”

In the interview, Ora also reflects on how her life changed during the pandemic, admitting she’s felt the loss of not being able to perform in public. ‘
