ELLIE Goulding and her art dealer husband Caspar Jopling have decided to split after a four-year marriage.
However, it seems that the pair's relationship had been breaking down over some time, and the signs were there to see.
In one sign, Ellie, 37, left cryptic messages for her fans on social media as she enjoyed sun-filled holidays away from her husband.
The singer posted an album of her girls trip to Costa Rica in January as she enjoyed the picturesque surroundings.
November last year saw a trip to California, where she was pictured with her son on the beach, but no snaps of Caspar were shared.
