Ellie and Caspar married at York Minster in August 2019 and first learned they were expecting while celebrating their one year anniversary in 2020.
The award-winning artist revealed in April 2021 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’ve got a bigger butt and these pretty nice boobs!”
The fitness enthusiast also described her pregnancy cravings, admitted a penchant for canned sardines and Weetabix Minis, and has even visited McDonald’s twice in the past eight months.
About her eating habits, the songwriter added to The Telegraph’s Stella magazine: ‘[tinned sardines and Weetabix Minis] are not eaten at the same time… it was only two [times she went to McDonalds!’].
The Starry Eyed hitmaker also talked about discovering she was eight weeks pregnant 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…

“Then I started to struggle a little bit with sports. That was a sign to me that something had changed.’
The star echoed her comments as she announced her baby news with Fashionshare: ‘I want a better word than feminine, [but]-I have curves I’ve never had before. I enjoy it. My husband enjoys it.
“I actually went from being smug about how healthy my salads were and my breakfasts and eating nuts and seeds, and then all I wanted was McDonalds.
“And I was kind of terrified, I suddenly wanted all the bad stuff! Whatever this baby did when it took over my body, it was like ‘Hell no – I don’t want broccoli, spinach, kale!
“I just wanted sugar and carbs.”
