Ellie Goulding is celebrating the arrival of her second child. The Higher Than Heaven singer, 39, revealed on Instagram that she gave birth to a healthy baby girl on Friday, March 6. This marks her first child with boyfriend Beau Minniear. Goulding is already mom to 4-year-old Arthur, whom she shares with ex-husband Caspar Jopling.
Gratitude for Her Care Team
In her announcement, Goulding expressed deep appreciation for the female medical team who helped her deliver safely. “On Friday, I gave birth to a beautiful healthy baby girl. We are totally obsessed with her,” she wrote. “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.”
Arthur Becomes a Big Brother
The singer also shared her excitement about watching her son Arthur step into his new role. “This addition to my family fills me with so much joy, especially as Arthur is so so happy to become a big brother to this little angel,” she added. Goulding posted photos of her newborn, a celebratory cake reading “baby sister,” and decorations marking the occasion.
Pregnancy Journey
Goulding first revealed her pregnancy at the 2025 Fashion Awards in London, where she walked the red carpet in a crop top that showcased her baby bump. She later spoke with NYLON about balancing motherhood and her career. “I didn’t want to become just a pregnant woman first,” she explained. “I have amazing people around me. I have an amazing boyfriend. I do have it a little easier in that I do have amazing support.”
A Growing Family
Goulding and Minniear went public with their relationship in September 2025, though they had been linked since July. Minniear even shared a candid photo of Goulding on Instagram that hinted at their romance. Since then, the couple has been spotted together at events and vacations, and now they are celebrating the arrival of their first child together.
Looking Ahead
As Goulding embraces life as a mother of two, she continues to balance family with her music career. With Arthur thrilled to be a big brother and Minniear by her side, Goulding says she feels “very lucky” to be surrounded by love and support.
