NEED TO KNOW
Ellie Goulding knows a work of art when she sees one!
The pregnant singer shared a cheeky video to TikTok on Sunday, Jan. 18 featuring boyfriend Beau Minniear and a sweet joke about how she found his good looks distracting while on a trip to the Louvre museum in Paris.
In the video, Goulding, 39, stands before a 1563 painting by Paolo Veronese called “The Wedding at Cana,” only to pan the camera over to her right to show Minniear, 28, gazing up at the piece.
“Art bla bla bla 😏 (On a serious note this is mind blowing every time),” she captioned the post, over which she wrote, “Got distracted.”
The “Starry Eyed” singer also commented, “I know my art.”
Goulding later shared a series of snaps to her Instagram Stories that further detailed her and Minniear’s trip to Paris, including a photo with the Mona Lisa at the Louvre and a stop at the Café Charlot restaurant.
Goulding announced in December that she is expecting her second child, and first with Minniear. She and ex-husband Caspar Jopling, from whom she separated in February 2024 after 4½ years of marriage, welcomed son Arthur in April 2021.
The British star revealed her pregnancy while walking the red carpet at the 2025 Fashion Awards in London.
She and Minniear went public with their romance in September, and in November, he starred opposite Goulding in a sexy music video for her single “Destiny.”
In an interview with NME, Goulding opened up about first hearing “Destiny” amid her separation from Jopling.
“I first heard this track when I had recently separated from my husband. This was at a really turbulent time for me because I was trying to navigate what felt like a separation of all separations. It was a marriage, not just a relationship,” she said. “I didn’t know what else to do other than make music.”
The song marked the Grammy winner’s first solo release since her 2023 album Higher Than Heaven.
