Pop sensation Ellie Goulding has been seen for the first time with her boyfriend, Beau Minniear, following her dramatic pregnancy announcement earlier this week. The couple were spotted in a series of affectionate moments at London's Heathrow Airport on Wednesday morning, preparing to board a first-class flight to the United States.
PDA at the airport following baby news
The 'Love Me Like You Do' singer, 38, and the actor, 28, appeared completely besotted with each other as they checked in for their transatlantic journey. This public outing comes just two days after Ellie stunned the fashion world by revealing her baby bump on the red carpet at the star-studded British Fashion Awards at the Royal Albert Hall on Monday night.
This pregnancy will be Goulding's second child. She already shares a four-year-old son, Arthur, with her ex-husband, art dealer Caspar Jopling. The baby will be her first with Minniear, who is ten years her junior.
A high-profile fashion week revelation
At Monday's glitzy awards ceremony, Ellie made her condition impossible to miss. She showcased her blossoming bump in a stylish yet revealing ensemble: a black crop top paired with low-waisted trousers and an unbuttoned leather jacket. She was not the only celebrity to share nappy news at the event; actress Sienna Miller also revealed she is expecting her third child, her second with boyfriend Oli Green.
The Hertfordshire-born singer first went public with her romance with Minniear back in September. A source close to the pair told the Daily Mail at the time that they were "very much in love" and described Beau as "a real romantic." The couple's relationship was first rumoured over the summer, following a romantic mini-break to Italy and a subsequent public appearance at a boxing match.
Moving forward from past relationships
Ellie addressed her split from Caspar Jopling in February 2024, after five years of marriage. In a statement on social media, she confirmed they had "privately separated some time ago" but remained the "closest of friends" committed to co-parenting their son. Prior to her marriage, Goulding's high-profile relationships included dates with Radio 1 DJ Greg James and a collaboration-turned-romance with DJ Skrillex.
As one of the most successful British singers of the 21st century, fans are now eagerly awaiting both the arrival of her new baby and any potential new music, which she is thought to be working on. For now, all eyes are on her loved-up new chapter with Beau Minniear as they prepare for their expanding family.
