Cara Delevingne ‘at Rita Ora’s birthday party’ a week after AMAs

Cara Delevingne is facing accusations of breaking lockdown rules twice over the weekend, after allegedly attending Rita Ora’s reported 30th birthday bash. 

The model was allegedly among the 30 people who are said to have attended the secret bash at a restaurant called Casa Cruz in west London on Saturday – it was named after Chile-born Juan Santa Cruz, who resigned as restaurateur in February.

And the purported violation came less than one week after Cara, 28, attended November 22nd’s American Music Awards in Los Angeles – despite the long-imposed 14-day quarantine order for travellers landing in the UK.

Breaking the rules? Cara Delevingne is facing accusations of breaking lockdown rules twice over the weekend, after allegedly attending Rita Ora’s reported 30th birthday bash

Model Cara was among a host of A-list celebrities gracing a socially-distanced red carpet at Los Angeles’ Microsoft Theater, during a week when COVID-19 cases in LA County took the daily rate to more than 4,000 infections.

And while it is not yet known when the British beauty departed from US soil, she was said to have attended Rita’s gathering six days after the star-studded awards show.

In keeping with COVID-19 pandemic regulations, travellers flying into the UK from countries or territories not on the safe list are required to complete a passenger location form and self-isolate at home for 14 days.

MailOnline has contacted a representative for Cara Delevingne for comment.

Singer Rita is alleged to have invited 30 friends to the restaurant in Notting Hill, to mark the occasion with the group partying ‘until the early hours’. 

It comes as the government again stressed the importance of abiding by restrictions on Sunday, ahead of the UK’s second national lockdown ending on December 2.

In pictures obtained by The Sun, Cara and Poppy Delevingne as well as TOWIE star Vas Morgan, 31, and Rita’s sister Elena, 32, are seen at the venue.

During the night, police officers were pictured outside at the eatery as they peered into windows and tried to open one metal door.

While the Met Police confirmed they had been called out on Saturday night to reports of a potential COVID-19 regulations breach in the area. 

They told MailOnline: Police were called at 21:10hrs on Saturday, 28 November to reports of a potential breach of Covid regulations at a commercial premises in Clarendon Road, W11.

Travel between the US and UK in Lockdown: What are the rules?

With COVID-19 infections in California still being tallied at alarming rates, travel between the US and UK is limited, outside of special circumstances. And those flying into the UK from the US are required to isolate for 14 days, to ensure they don’t pass on the virus.

Advice on gov.uk reads: ‘You need to self-isolate in the place you’re staying for the first 14 days after you arrive, unless you’ve only visited an exempt country, territory or region. This is because of coronavirus (COVID-19).

‘You may be fined up to £10,000 if you do not self-isolate. You can be prosecuted if you do not pay the fine on time.’

Officers attended and carried out enquiries at the scene. They found no record of any offence being committed.’ 

Rita was also spotted leaving the building while wearing a slinky wrap skirt and black face mask.

A source told the publication: ‘Rita and her sister came to the restaurant first, all dolled up and clearly looking forward to a good night.

‘There were a number of guests, all dressed up very glamorously, and everyone entered the building through the back, with security watching the front to make sure no one else went in. It went on until the early hours.’

MailOnline has contacted Rita Ora, Cara and Poppy Delevingne, Vas J Morgan and Casa Cruz’s representatives for a comment. 

The restaurant’s director Nicholas Fallows also told The Sun that he hadn’t been aware of any plans for an event and the restaurant was ‘owned by shareholders’.

Current government guidelines say that people ‘minimise the time spent outside their home’ and avoid meeting others who they do not live with.

People should also avoid physical contact; being close and face-to-face; and shouting or singing close to others who do not share a home with you or who are not in the same support bubble.

Guidelines brought in with the national lockdown on November 5 also state that people must ‘not meet socially indoors with family or friends unless they are part of your household, meaning the people you live with, or your support bubble’. 

Restaurants are also currently closed except for takeaway meals, with any breaking of these guidelines possibly ending up with a fine.

The rules are set to change on December 2, with many restrictions being dependent on which Tier the location ends up being in. 

In London restaurants and cafes will be able to open from Wednesday. Pubs and bars can also open, but only if they are operating as restaurants with table service. 

All hospitality venues can only serve alcohol with substantial meals and must stop taking orders at 10pm and close by 11pm, according to the government.

Rita celebrated her 30th birthday in style last week after marking the actual big day during lockdown on Thursday.

On Sunday she used the occasion as an opportunity to look back on decades past, when she took to Instagram to share a slew of snaps of herself as a child. 

While on Saturday, the star was gifted quite the impressive keepsake – a video featuring an exhaustive list of stars wishing her a happy birthday. 

The singer took to Instagram to share the impressive clip, which included appearances by Mariah Carey, Naomi Campbell, Mick Jagger, Michael Caine, Lionel Richie, and Vjosa Osmani, the acting president of Kosovo – to name a few.   

She was also surprised by her parents, Besnik and Vera, who started off the proceedings by sharing snapshots of the star as a young girl as she celebrated various past birthdays.

With Stevie Wonder’s timeless classic Happy Birthday playing in the background, such celebrities as Cameron Diaz, Chelsea Handler, Idris Elba, Paris Hilton, Davina McCall, Liam Payne, Sam Smith, and Jonathan Ross also greeted the star. 

After watching the clip with her parents, the birthday girl said: ‘That is a wicked video! Wow. Thank you so much to everyone who did that video. You guys have made me the happiest girl in the world. Thank you so much.’ 

Rita also took the opportunity to look back on decades past on Sunday, when she took to Instagram to share a slew of snaps of herself as a child.

Captioning the shots, Rita wrote: ‘Guess I’ve always sort of been addicted to clothes even as a kid. So grateful to be able to share these with you guys. 

‘Life goes by so fast so live your BEST LIVES even in these times try and find joy even from something like a photograph ❤️.’ 

Celebrating last Thursday, Rita was seen tucking into a creamy two-tier cake with the words ‘happy birthday Rita’ iced onto the front of the cake in pink lettering.

The media personality also appeared to have been gifted some flowers from Dior, judging by a bow which decorated the bouquet.

Rita captioned the gallery of snaps: ‘Me and cake and some trousers I couldn’t breathe in. Thank you for all the love it felt weird not doing anything for my bday so being me I dressed up and ate cake…

‘Today I’m going to finish the rest of my cake for breakfast lunch and dinner. Byeeeeeeeeee.’

Rita later shared a video of herself from the same day chatting to the camera, with the sound switched off so that what she was saying was inaudible.

She captioned the clip: ‘I wanna post this, I can’t tell you what I’m saying but I look cute.’
