The Starry Eyed hitmaker accessorised her chic ensemble with gold hoop earrings and layered simple chain necklaces. 

Ellie returned to work on Wednesday just five weeks after giving birth to her first child with husband Caspar.

She took the stage at Leeds defender Luke Ayling and his stunning wife Poppy’s wedding at the lavish Lime Wood Hotel in the New Forest, where she sang while accompanied by Hertfordshire-based The Function Band.

The star looked sensational in a mini dress as she belted out a rendition of The Waterboys’ 1990 hit How Long Will I Love You? while the sportsman and his bride performed their first dance to just 30 guests.

Last month, Ellie welcomed her first child with Caspar, as she gave birth just weeks after surprising fans with the news that she was eight months pregnant in a stunning at-home shoot for Vogue Magazine. 

Caspar confirmed they had welcomed a baby on his Instagram story as he shared a picture of a bunch of flowers and wrote: ‘Mum and baby both healthy and happy’. 

He added: ‘I don’t ever address the public attention that comes with Ellie’s job, but during this magical and personal moment we would really appreciate being able to enjoy our privacy – Thank you x’.  

Ellie and Caspar married in August 2019 at York Minster, and first learned they were expecting while celebrating their one-year anniversary last year.

The award-winning artist revealed late last month that she was embracing her new pregnancy figure. In an interview, the songwriter 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 songwriter 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.’ 

Radiant! She looked amazing during the performance
