Ellie Goulding ‘healthy and happy’ after birth of first child

Ellie Goulding has given birth to her first child, her husband has confirmed.

On Instagram, Casper Jopling said the 34-year-old and baby were both “healthy and happy” following the birth.

He said he did not “ever address the public attention that comes with Ellie’s job”, but thanked people for allowing them privacy “during this magical and personal moment”.

Goulding revealed she was pregnant in a British Vogue interview in February.

The singer, who was born in Hereford, married the art dealer in York Minster in 2019, with royalty, pop stars and artists among the guests.

Goulding released her fourth album, Brightest Blue, in 2020, which went on to become her third album to reach number one in the UK.
