Ellie Goulding and husband Caspar Jopling announce newborn son's name in sweet old-fashioned way

New mum Ellie Goulding is bucking the trend when it comes to baby announcements.

The singer, who welcomed her first child last week, announced her son's arrival in the Births, Deaths and Marriages section of UK newspaper The Times.

Her husband, Caspar Jopling, proudly posted a photo of the announcement on social media.

The clipping confirmed Arthur Ever Winter Jopling was born on April 29 and featured Ellie's real name, Elena.

Celebrity friends of the couple, including fashion designer Misha Nonoo and royal photographer Matt Porteous, congratulated the new parents.

Ellie and Caspar wed in August 2019 and the proud dad was the one who first announced the little one's arrival, on his Instagram Stories.

"Mum and baby both healthy and happy :) Extremely grateful," he wrote, adding: "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."

When announcing her pregnancy, the singer also went for the old-school magazine reveal, showcasing a large bump in Vogue when she was already 30 weeks along.

"It was crazy because it was our one-year anniversary. That was not the plan," Goulding told the magazine.

"The thought of getting pregnant didn't seem like it could be a reality. Becoming pregnant kind of made me feel human."

"I want a better word than womanly, [but]—I have curves I've never had before," she added. "I'm enjoying it. My husband's enjoying it."

As for why she waited until her third trimester to announce the news, Goulding said she "needed time to get my head around it".
