Popstar Ellie Goulding has welcomed her “beautiful” baby girl with her boyfriend, actor Beau Minniear.

The 39-year old singer – known for the songs Burn, Love Me Like You Do, and River – announced late last year that she was pregnant with her second baby.

In an Instagram story, Goulding told her 13.6 million followers that she gave birth to their daughter on March 6th.

Goulding said: “On Friday I gave birth to a beautiful healthy baby girl.”

She added: “We are totally obsessed with her.

“It was fitting that I spent International Women’s Day with her and the incredible female team at St Mary’s, who provided me and my baby with extraordinary care and kindness.

“I will always be in awe of midwives.

“This addition to my family fills me with so much joy, especially as Arthur is so happy to become a big brother to this little angel.”

Goulding married her ex-husband, art dealer Caspar Jopling, in August 2019 and gave birth to their son Arthur in 2021.

After being married for nearly five years, Goulding announced the pair had split up and has since started dating actor Minniear.

The Brit award-winner is known for the songs Anything Could Happen, Miracle, and I Need Your Love.

She has had four chart-topping albums in the UK, including her debut album Lights and her most recent offering, Higher Than Heaven, which was released in 2023.

The star released her latest single Destiny in November 2025, and is yet to announce details of her upcoming album.
