Rob Kardashian has publicly supported his ex-girlfriend Rita Ora, and people are freaking out about it.
The songstress has faced criticism for her new song ‘Girls’ with Cardi B, BeBe Rexha and Charli XCX, and Rita addressed the controversy by releasing a statement on Twitter.
She wrote, “‘Girls’ was written to represent my truth and is an accurate account of a very real and honest experience in my life.
“I have had romantic relationships with women and men throughout my life and this is my personal journey. I am sorry how I expressed myself in my song has hurt anyone.”

Much to fans surprise, Rob showed his support by retweeting the message with six praise hands emoji’s.
Rob’s statement is particularly shocking due to his complicated history with Rita.
The pair dated for a couple of months before splitting back in 2012, and at the time Rob claimed that Rita “cheated on me with nearly 20 dudes while we were together.”
After their split, Rob famously went on a downward spiral, and struggled with weight gain and his mental health.
Naturally, fans had a lot to say about Rob’s tweet:
