I do: Ellie and Caspar tied the knot at York Minster in August 2019 in front of star-studded guests including Princess Eugenie, James Blunt and Katy Perry 

‘It was crazy because it was our one-year anniversary. That was not the plan. The thought of getting pregnant didn’t seem like it could be a reality… 

‘Becoming pregnant kind of made me feel human. I want a better word than womanly, [but]—I have curves I’ve never had before…

‘I’m enjoying it. My husband’s enjoying it.’ 

The singer said she had been enjoying a good streak of fitness before finding out her baby news. She said back in May 2020 that was no longer adopting a vegan diet.

And Ellie has now said that since finding out she is expecting, she went from ‘smug health freak to craving McDonald’s’ and ‘had a completely different body and energy.’ 

Ellie admitted that being pregnant during a pandemic felt like a lonely experience but felt like complaining about being pregnant was a taboo. 

But while she does know the baby’s gender ‘by default’ when she had the scan, she admits she wasn’t in having any sort of gender reveal and just wanted a healthy baby.

The home, called Oldbury Place, is fit for the society siren the home was designed by architects Stiff + Trevillion, is arranged over five floors. 

The singer is clearly moving forward with her life and previously claimed some of her previous relationships – which included DJ Greg James, DJ Skrillex, McFly’s Dougie Poynter and actor Jeremy Irvine – were a waste of time.

There were also rumoured relationships with Ed Sheeran and even Prince Harry.     

Speaking to PEOPLE, she said: ‘Twenties was just a disaster in so many ways. I had these relationships at the time that were everything.

‘A couple years later, I’m like, “Why did I waste their time and mine by thinking it was something more than it was?”.   

Ellie and Jasper met in 2016 after they were seated next to each other at a dinner arranged by their mutual friend, Princess Eugenie.

The pair got married at a star-studded wedding at York Minster in August 2019, attended by everyone from the Duchess of York Sarah Ferguson to the actress Sienna Miller and singers Katy Perry and James Blunt. 

They later let their hair down at a lavish reception hosted at stately home Castle Howard.  Her husband was educated at Eton and Harvard, and is the son of an aristocratic Yorkshire landowner and the nephew of art dealer Jay Joplin. 

Sadly she later revealed that she hasn’t seen her mother, Tracey, since her wedding and claimed the relationship was ‘not fixable.’  She spoke to The Independent about her early childhood and her difficult relationship with her mother.

Ellie had claimed in an interview with The Independent that she wanted to talk about her difficult relationship with her mother but, ‘she became quite threatening when I did talk about her in the press. Discussing her was a disaster.’

Tracey, who works for the NHS, later said: ‘I really, really don’t know what she is referring to and where the word threatening has come from.

‘I don’t know what she is talking about. I don’t think Ellie has ever spoken about me in the press so I don’t know what I could become threatening about. I think it must have been twisted or taken out of context because I have not got a threatening bone in my body.’
