Ellie and Caspar went public with their engagement last year, in The Times newspaper’s announcements section.

The Starry Eyed singer discussed her relationship for the first time last year, telling The Guardian: “I thought for a long time that I could never really take the time to nurture a relationship because I’m never around.

“I haven’t been touring for the past year, so I think this is the first time I’ve realised what it’s like to be in a relationship and learn to be with someone. It also helps when you find someone who is very special and understands your job.”
