Ellie Goulding is engaged! The singer and her fiancé, Caspar Jopling decided to share their news in a traditional way, via an announcement in The Times newspaper.
The news read: "The engagement is announced between Caspar, son of The Hon Nicholas Jopling of Yorkshire and Mrs Jayne Warde-Aldam of Yorkshire, and Elena, daughter of Mr Arthur Goulding of Hertfordshire and Mrs Tracey Sumner of West Midlands." We'll allow a brief moment to let it sink in that Ellie's full name is actually Elena — who knew?
The 31-year-old singer has been dating Casper, an art dealer and former Eton College student, for 18 months. Casper has shared photos of the 31-year-old on his Instagram, and his photography skills are nearly as adorable as his captions.
