The singer the reality for two months before ending their brief romance due to her 'hectic work schedule' and their incompatible lifestyles.
The end of their brief romance coincided with a series of bitter social media posts from Rob, who indirectly suggested the singer had cheated on him numerous times during their relationship.
Posting shortly after their split in December 2012, he wrote: 'When a woman cheats on you with one man I can live with that. People make mistakes, trust me. I have forgiven numerous times…
'But when a woman disrespects herself by messing with more than 20 men all while being in a relationship with a Faithful man…
Rita first found some notoriety in the States when she had a short-lived romance with Robert Kardashian in 2012
'I just don't get how a woman can do that to her body. And your career hasn't even launched yet. I don't put up with sloppiness. LOYALTY.'
He later added: 'How can a woman who is so busy trying to start her own career have time to be with so many dudes while in a relationship?!'
'I'm actually disgusted a woman could give up her body to more than 20 dudes in less than a year's time while trying to start a career.'
The tweets were live for around 30 minutes before Rob appeared to have second thoughts and deleted them - but not before they went viral.
In 2020, Rita confessed she'd 'forgotten' about her brief relationship with Rob.
'Oh, I forgot about that,' she told The Sunday Times when asked what it was like to date a Kardashian.
'It was very short-lived. I was so young. It was fun. It was very, very fun, I guess. That's all I remember.'
In an interview with Glamour, the singer confirmed she instigated the split, but wanted to 'keep it friendly'.
She commented: 'I'm not going out with Rob. We were close for a while, but it didn't work because I was never there.
'I was like a ghost. I used to get so frustrated with myself and then wonder why I was angry, so I decided it was best to keep it friendly - especially at the moment when there's so much going on.'
Music woes and a messy split

Despite her talents Rita's early singles failed to strike a cord with American audiences and was forced to scrap her second album in 2014 amid her split from Calvin Harris.
Rumours that DJ Calvin had been involved with Rita started swirling when she claimed he had blocked her from performing I Will Never Let You Down — which he wrote and produced — at the 2014 Teen Choice Awards.
Shortly afterwards she canned her second album, with fans speculating that it was down to Calvin refusing to sign off on several songs from the CD.

After a fan tweeted that if Rita's second album hadn't been 'torpedoed' she would've been 'one of the biggest pop stars in the world', Calvin was quick to hit
