Ellie Goulding displays baby bump in a baggy white T-shirt

She’s set to become a mother for the first time later this month as she’s expecting a baby with husband Caspar Jopling.

And Ellie Goulding updated her fans on her pregnancy with a candid post shared to her Instagram account on Thursday. 

The singer, 34, looked naturally radiant as she displayed her growing baby bump in a baggy T-shirt for the black-and-white photo.

Tapping into full relaxation mode, the songwriter posed against her left hand as she relaxed on a comfy sofa.

The parent-to-be showcased her clear complexion as she went make-up free and wore her locks loose.

Earlier in the week, Ellie revealed she’s embracing her new figure ahead of her first child’s arrival. 

In an interview, the musician said: ‘A revelation: I’ve always had a runner’s body and now I have a bigger ass and these rather nice boobs!’

The fitness enthusiast also detailed her pregnancy cravings, admitting she has a penchant for tinned sardines and Weetabix Minis, and has even visited McDonald’s twice in the last eight months.

On her eating habits, the pop princess added to The Telegraph’s Stella Magazine: ‘[tinned sardines and Weetabix Minis] aren’t eaten at the same time… it was only two [times she went to McDonalds!’  

The Starry Eyed hitmaker also touched on discovering she was pregnant at eight weeks during a romantic trip to Italy for her first wedding anniversary. 

Ellie said: ‘I thought I had an iron deficiency and got blood tests, which came back fine but my progesterone levels were high… I then started struggling a bit with exercise. That was a sign for me something had changed.’ 

The award-winning artist echoed her comments when she announced her baby news with Vogue, sharing: ‘I want a better word than womanly, [but]—I have curves I’ve never had before. I’m enjoying it. My husband’s enjoying it.

‘I actually went from being smug about how healthy my salads were and my breakfasts and eating nuts and seeds, and then all I wanted was McDonalds. 

‘And I was kind of terrified, I suddenly wanted all of the bad things! Whatever this baby did when it took over my body was like ”Hell no—I do not want broccoli, spinach, collards! I just wanted sugar and carbs.”’
