It’s been five years since Ellie Goulding released her last album Delirium and it’s fair to say a lot has changed for the star since then. She met art dealer Caspar Jopling, 28, in 2017, announced their engagement 18 months later and enjoyed a star-studded wedding last summer – attended by Sienna Miller, Ed Sheeran and Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie.
Talking about the early days of their romance, Ellie says the pair were very shy on their first date at an art exhibition. “Thank God we had things to look at because I don’t think we said a single word to each other on the date,” she laughs.
The happy couple are set to celebrate their one-year wedding anniversary next month, but Ellie insists marriage hasn’t changed her. “I really thought there was going to be more of a profound change in my life when I got married but it just feels very natural,” she says.
In fact, Ellie says she still relishes her own space so much that she has moved back to London while Caspar finishes studying in Oxfordshire, after the pair spent lockdown together.
“I love my husband, but I also love myself. I can read a book. I can go for a run,” she explains.
