Ellie Goulding has confirmed she is expecting her second child, stepping out at the 2025 Fashion Awards in London with her baby bump on full display. The 38-year-old singer arrived at the ceremony on December 1 wearing a black crop top paired with loose pleated trousers and a lengthy leather coat — a look that openly revealed her growing bump.

This will be Goulding’s first child with her current boyfriend, Beau Minniear, whom she began dating earlier this year. She already has a son, Arthur Jopling, aged four, whom she shares with her former husband, Caspar Jopling.
Goulding and Jopling announced their separation in February 2024, after roughly 4½ years of marriage. At the time she said on social media: “In light of recent stories, I feel I have been left with no choice but to let you all know that Caspar and I privately separated some time ago.” They added they remained “the closest of friends” and committed to co-parenting Arthur.
Rumours about Goulding’s new romance gathered pace in mid-2025, and she and Minniear made their relationship public in September. Earlier this month he appeared in the music video for her new single “Destiny,” further confirming their bond.
The pregnancy announcement comes at a moment of personal reinvention for Goulding. Over the past year she balanced motherhood, a high-profile separation and rebuilding her private life amid renewed creative output. Fans and media alike greet the news as a joyful next chapter for the singer, as she prepares to expand her family and embrace a new phase in her personal life.
