From around 2013 to 2014, Ora was involved with Calvin Harris, the DJ and songwriter. While they were together, they collaborated on the hit single "I Will Never Let You Down," but after they broke up, "custody" of the song became a sticking point between the exes: at one point, Ora had to drop out of performing it at the 2014 Teen Choice Awards after Harris refused to allow her to perform it.
"Ask Calvin," she told Ryan Seacrest on his radio show, when asked about why she didn't perform at the last minute. Billboard later reported that Harris denied permission for any televised performances and sync licences of the track, tweeting that he had a "damn good reason" for it. Ora ultimately had to scrap an entire album they'd planned.
"I thought he had my back and that he'd never steer me wrong. But then 'I Will Never Let You Down' came out, and everything started to go a bit weird. I don't know if it was because business was mixed with personal or what," Ora told Marie Claire in 2015.
