Rita breaks lockdown rules

It came after the musician travelled back from Egypt in November and failed to self-isolate on her return.

Apologising in a statement, she said: “I recently flew to Egypt to perform at a corporate event for a private company.

“My travel party followed protocol and presented negative Covid tests upon entry, as required by Egyptian authorities.”

Furthermore, Rita added: “I should have followed Government advice and isolated myself for the required period. As you know, I didn’t follow Government advice. I apologise again, unreservedly.”
