Caspar Jopling and Ellie Goulding first met back in April 2017. According to Hello! Magazine, the couple met in New York through mutual friends. They connected immediately and soon started dating, during which they went on several dates in London. In her November 2021 interview with Tatler, the “Love Me Like You Do” singer recalled how she almost did not go out with her friends on the day she met Caspar Jopling, saying:

"I was exhausted that night, and I almost didn’t go.’ We were painfully shy around each other in the beginning,’ she says, laughing, ‘but once we had overcome that, we realised that we were really meant to be together – he’s very romantic."

The couple dated for a few months before announcing their engagement through a press release in August 2018. The announcement read:

"Mr C.W.F. Jopling and Miss E.J. Goulding. The engagement is announced between Caspar, son of The Hon Nicholas Jopling of Yorkshire and Mrs Jayne Warde-Aldam of Yorkshire, and Elena, daughter of Mr Arthur Goulding of Hertfordshire and Mrs Tracey Sumner of West Midlands."

Caspar Jopling later shared a statement on social media, expressing his excitement to start this new chapter with Ellie Goulding. He said:

"I get to spend the rest of my life with this truly extraordinary and beautiful, beautiful person. No one has ever made me feel more full of life, knowledge, happiness, or love. Hope, passion, confidence, and more love."

He further added:

"There is no one I have ever been more complete with and there is no one I will ever feel more complete with. I look forward to a lifetime of exploring the world together, crying with laughter at stupid jokes, chatting into the early hours of the morning about art, music, the world, and the future. I love you Elena. And thank you to all of you that have sent such loving messages today."

The couple tied the knot a year later in 2019. Their wedding ceremony was attended by close to three hundred guests, including Orlando Bloom and Princess Beatrice. In her 2020 interview with Glamour Magazine UK, Goulding shared more about her relationship with Caspar Jopling, saying:

"We talk things through, and we never argue. If we have differences, we talk them out; we don't just say, 'Well, I'm right and you're wrong and we'll just agree to differ.' We talk about why we might disagree on something."

The couple welcomed their son in April 2021, the news of which both Caspar Jopling and Ellie Goulding had initially kept private. Caspar later announced the news on his Instagram Stories, writing:

"Mum and baby both healthy and happy :) Extremely grateful. 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."

Rumors of their split emerged in mid-2023 after Ellie Goulding was linked to surfing instructor Armando Perez. After months of speculation, Ellie Goulding confirmed that she and Caspar Jopling had separated months earlier, although the exact date was not revealed. The “How Long Will I Love You” singer posted on her Instagram Stories, saying:

"In light of recent stories, I feel I have been left with no choice but to let you all know that Caspar and I privately separated some time ago.We remain the closest of friends and have been successfully co-parenting with our sons best interests at heart. We are committed to protecting our family privacy and thank people in advance for respecting our wishes - we won't be commenting further."

On the other hand, Caspar Jopling wrote on his Instagram Stories, saying:

"Hi people - hope you're having a good day. I feel (sadly) that I need to say something on mine and Ellie's current relationship.. that I hope more than anything will make any final tabloid speculation disappear. Ellie and I made the decision to separate some time ago. Our immediate family and close friends have known for some time - otherwise we chose to do what we could to keep this private."

He further added:

"Ellie and I remain the closest of friends and, most importantly, 'co-parents' to the best kiddo in the world, Arthur. This is the last I want to say on this - and please ask that you respect mine and Ellie's privacy. Thanks a lot, Caspar."
