Ellie Goulding was seen packing on the PDA with a hunky surf instructor during a holiday to Costa Rica this week.

Back in September is was reported that Ellie and her art dealer husband Caspar Jopling, 31, had been living separate lives for at least six months, despite trying to stick together for the sake of their two-year-old son, Arthur.
The exes were last seen together in October during a family day out with their son, after the musician ended her friendship with Tory peer Zac Goldsmith to ‘focus on her marriage.’
Hitting the beach this week, Ellie appeared to have moved on as she enjoyed a surfing session with Armando.

In October Ellie called off her increasingly close friendship with Tory peer Zac, 48, after the pair were spotted together on numerous occasions.
The pair had developed a relationship over their shared passion for tackling climate change and they grew close following the breakdown of Lord Goldsmith’s marriage to his second wife, Alice Rothschild, after ten tears.
The friendship had been described as an unlikely one as Lord Goldsmith is the Eton-educated son of late billionaire financier Sir James Goldsmith, while Ellie grew up on a council estate in Herefordshire.
However, the singer has made many friends in high society, including Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie who were guests at her star-studded wedding to Mr Jopling at York Minster in 2019.
Lord Goldsmith was previously married to fellow environmentalist Sheherazade Bentley but they split in 2010. He resigned as a minister in June after accusing Rishi Sunak of being ‘uninterested’ in the environment.
Ellie and Lord Goldsmith first met at the COP26 climate change conference in Glasgow in November 2021.
Seven months later they were spotted enjoying a lunch together at upmarket café The Garden in Covent Garden and were later seen at The Wolseley restaurant in Mayfair.
In October last year they were at the same party at the exclusive London members’ club 5 Hertford Street and just weeks later they were reunited for the next climate change summit, COP27, in Egypt.
But the Daily Mail revealed earlier this month that Ellie had chosen to stop spending time with Zac to focus on saving her marriage.
Ellie and Caspar married in August 2019 at York Minster with A-list guests including Sienna Miller, Orlando Bloom and Katy Perry.
Their split was first rumoured in July, when sources claimed they were ‘living apart’.
