Ellie Goulding welcomed her daughter with boyfriend Beau Minier in March 2026. This is her first child with Miniar and second overall. The couple first revealed their relationship in July 2025.
On December 1, 2025, Ellie Goulding revealed her pregnancy by walking the red carpet at the 2025 Fashion Awards in London wearing a crop top.
A source confirmed to People that Golding is expecting her first child and second child together with boyfriend Beau Minnier. (Golding has another child, a son named Arthur, with ex-husband Casper Jopling.)
The announcement sparked curiosity about Minier’s relationship with Golding. Here’s everything we know so far.
Who is Beau Minier?
The 28-year-old actor is from Utah and grew up on a ranch outside of Park City, he said in an August 2023 interview with Behind the Blind. He said he lives in the countryside, plays in the forest, and talks to many animals.
“At school, I never really bonded with the drama kids and couldn’t quite see myself with them,” Miniar said. “And I never hit it off with the soccer boys either. I bounced around, got into a lot of trouble, got suspended a lot.”
At age 18, he moved to Los Angeles and met an acting coach who helped channel his energy. Then, in 2023, he headed to New York.
“I think as an artist you’re always learning and always releasing,” he said of performing. “Acting is always a new experience, and I don’t have any attachments to the process itself. I just feel like it’s something that I have to breathe in and embrace where I am in life at the time.”
According to his IMDb page, his TV and film roles include 2014’s It’s Time, 2017’s The Apartment Haunting, 2018’s The Mistake, 2021’s A Night at the Eagle, 2024’s Everybody Wins, and 2025’s Bad Haircut.
He also appeared in Golding’s “Destiny” music video.
how long have they been together?
In July, Minear posted a merry-go-round of photos, including a shot of Golding lying on an ornate bed. She commented on the post with a red heart emoji.
In September, they were spotted together in London. They were both wearing casual hoodies and workout clothes, and Minear could be seen putting his arm around Golding’s waist.
When did Golding and Minear welcome their baby together?
On March 10, 2026, Golding announced on Instagram that she and Minear had given birth to a daughter. Sharing a photo of her newborn’s feet, she wrote on her Instagram Stories: “We gave birth to a beautiful and healthy baby girl on Friday. We are completely in love with her.”
She continued: “It was fitting to spend International Women’s Day with her and the wonderful team of women at St. Mary’s University. They provided me and my baby with exceptional care and kindness.”
Golding added: “I’m always in awe of midwives and this addition to our family fills me with so much joy. Arthur in particular is so excited to be a big brother to this little angel. @beauminniear 🤍🤍🤍.”
The singer also posted a photo of a cake decorated with the words “Welcome Baby Sister.”
