ELLIE Goulding may have recently announced that she’s pregnant but it’s an old television scene starring her partner that’s making headlines.
This week the Starry Eyed singer, 38, stepped out at the British Fashion Awards and proudly showed off her blossoming bump, as she gets ready to welcome a child with 28-year-old actor Beau Minniear.
Toyboy Beau has been acting for a decade and over the years he’s proven himself to be far from shy in front of the camera.
This confidence has even seen him bare all on one raunchy occasion, appearing fully naked – and playing tennis – with another nude man.
In 2022 Beau bagged a small television feature in the Paramount+ programme Minx, which centres on a publishing house that makes erotic magazines for women.
To appeal to many of the female’s gazes, the cast included a lot of hunky men who spent plenty of time wearing little to nothing on-screen.
The specific clip recirculating the web right now is one where Beau is entirely naked – bar sports socks and a sweat band – as he plays tennis indoors with another man.
The full frontal scene is a photoshoot for an upcoming issue of the Playgirl-inspired sexy magazine and Beau certainly delivered the brief with his rippling torso, boyish good looks and sizeable asset.
The two toned men pose with their rackets before high-fiving one another as Beau jokes with his opponent: “Killer forehand bro”.
“Good match everyone,” teases another woman applauding and clearly ogling the sight in front of her.
The photoshoot’s director then comes over and congratulates the pair on the great pics, gushing that “this issue is gonna be huge.”
Though Beau and his cast mate Chris Riggi were clothesless, Minx’s makeup head, Herbert, has confirmed that viewers didn’t see the actor’s real deal.
He spoke out about all of the faux genitalia created for the saucy scene, appearing life-like while preserving the decency of the actors.
“They [the casting directors] said, ‘It’s great you do prosthetics because we’re going to have some.’
“I asked, ‘What are we going to do?’,” before he learned how many prosthetic male parts needed crafting.
“[I’d] never done a full prosthetic penis.”
Minx isn’t the only show Beau has featured in.
Fans may remember him from the 2021 horror-mystery Night At The Eagle In, where he played the role of strong but anxious Dean.
He made further appearances in Thieves of Motor City (2021) and most recently Bad Haircut (2025).
Beau met Ellie in late 2023 while she was out enjoying time with friends in a luxury villa in Costa Rica.
The songstress, wanted to get away and have some fun after secretly separating from her ex husband, art dealer Caspar Jopling.
The former flames share a four-year-old son called Arthur.
Ellie announced her second pregnancy at the Fashion Awards on Monday, boldly displaying her bare bump and cradling it in her hands for the cameras.
She rocked a floor length black leather coat, and a matching set of black cropped trousers and a cropped baby tee, looking effortlessly chic yet casual.
Smiling under her dark shades, the Love Me Like You Do artist posed for pic after pic, even at one point cheekily saying “I have to tell you something” about the obvious announcement.
