Back together but looking gloomy in the sun… Ellie Goulding and her husband pictured after her split from Zac Goldsmith
Singer Ellie Goulding may be back with her husband… but neither of them seem particularly happy.
The pop star recently reconciled with art dealer Caspar Jopling after ending his increasingly close friendship with conservative peer Zac Goldsmith.
But as our exclusive photo shows, the newly reunited couple looked glum as they walked – some distance apart – in west London.
They chose not to hold hands and also did not wear their wedding rings.
Mrs Goulding, 36, dressed in a casual shirt and trousers for the walk with Caspar, 31, who was carrying a scooter and helmet belonging to their two-year-old son Arthur.

The distance between them contrasted with when Ms Goulding was seen walking near Lord Goldsmith, 48, near his £3million mansion in west London last month.
The couple had developed a relationship based on their shared passion for tackling climate change and they grew closer after Lord Goldsmith’s marriage to his second wife, Alice Rothschild, broke down after ten tears.
The friendship had been described as unlikely since Lord Goldsmith is the Eton-educated son of the late billionaire financier Sir James Goldsmith, while Ms Goulding grew up on a council estate in Herefordshire.
They first met at the COP26 climate change conference in Glasgow in November 2021.

But the Daily Mail revealed last week that Ms Goulding had chosen to stop spending time with Zac to focus on saving her marriage.
Seven months later, they were spotted having lunch together at upmarket cafe The Garden in Covent Garden, then at The Wolseley restaurant in Mayfair.
In October last year they were at the same party at London’s exclusive members’ club, 5 Hertford Street, and a few weeks later they were reunited for the upcoming climate change summit, COP27, in Egypt.

Ms Goulding married Mr Jopling in August 2019 at York Minster with high-profile guests including Sienna Miller, Orlando Bloom and Katy Perry.
