Ellie Goulding and Caspar Jopling: A Star-Studded Reunion at Fashion Week
SPOTTED: Ex-Lovers and Celebrities Mingle at Star-Studded Soiree
In a night filled with glamour, intrigue, and possibly even some new romance, Ellie Goulding and her ex-husband Caspar Jopling put on a united front as they attended the highly anticipated reopening of Chiltern Firehouse in London. The event marked the beginning of Fashion Week in the capital, and it seemed like all the A-listers wanted to be there.
Ellie, 38, looked absolutely stunning in a daring black sheer blouse that left little to the imagination. Paired with sleek shorts and towering platform heels, she was every inch the superstar as she walked arm-in-arm with a friend. The singer has been making waves with her new beau, Beau Minniear, a dashing American actor 10 years her junior, but it's clear she still holds a special place in her heart for Caspar.
The art dealer, 33, opted for an all-black ensemble that oozed sophistication and style. He paired a bomber jacket with sleek trousers and Nike trainers, looking every inch the fashion-forward gent. The couple may have split last year after nearly five years of marriage, but it's clear they're still on good terms – especially when it comes to their adorable four-year-old son, Arthur.
But Caspar wasn't alone at the party; he was joined by his new flame Olivia Wilde, the stunning actress who has been keeping a low profile since being spotted kissing him in London earlier this month. The pair made their first public outing together at W Magazine's New York Fashion Week party just last week, and it seems they're going strong.
In fact, sources close to the couple revealed that Caspar has been dating Olivia since July, with the two enjoying "under the radar" dates in Notting Hill. They've even been spotted sipping red wine and sharing passionate moments at The Pelican restaurant – all thanks to Caspar's connection as an investor in the establishment.
Meanwhile, Ellie's new romance with Beau Minniear is heating up. According to sources, the singer met her actor beau earlier this year, and they've been inseparable ever since. Ellie was seen posting a cryptic TikTok video back in July that hinted at their blossoming relationship – but it seems she's now fully committed.
The video in question showed Ellie stroking a man's arm, with the caption "Just a little something to take the edge off." Fans quickly pointed out that the watch on the mystery man's wrist matched one Beau regularly wears on his Instagram snaps. Talk about a smoking gun!
But what really got tongues wagging was when Ellie and Beau were spotted posting photos from the same hotel in Florence, before attending a boxing match together. It seemed like an innocent coincidence – until fans realized they'd both shared snaps from the very same luxury resort.
As one source revealed to The Scholarly Note: "Ellie is totally into Beau, and they have loads of shared interests like exercise and art. They've been having an absolute blast together, and they definitely make for a stunning couple."
But Ellie's not the only celebrity with a complicated love life. Poppy Delevingne and James Cook, who share four-year-old daughter Kaia Moon, were also spotted at the party – despite their highly publicized split last year. Poppy has since moved on with Prince Constantine Alexios of Greece and Denmark, while James became engaged to Lauren Brown in April.
It's clear that Chiltern Firehouse was the place to be for London's A-list elite this week, but it seems like everyone was keeping one eye on their exes – and one eye on potential new love interests. As for Ellie and Beau, only time will tell if they'll become the latest celebrity power couple.
The Aristocratic Connection
But what about Caspar Jopling? The 33-year-old art dealer may have made a splash in London's social scene with his high-profile romance with Olivia Wilde – but did you know he comes from an aristocratic family? His father, the Honourable Nicholas Jopling, is a member of the House of Lords, and Caspar's uncle Jay Jopling is a renowned art dealer who runs online platform Paddle 8.
Jay's daughter Jessie, 18, has even modeled for luxury brands like Chanel – while Angelica, 27, has been featured in top fashion mags. It seems like Caspar has inherited not only his family's good looks but also their flair for the arts.
And speaking of art, Frickley Hall, the Jopling family estate, is a stunning Grade II listed building that dates back to 1760. The aristocratic clan hosts their own equestrian events – including the prestigious Frickley Horse Trials. Who knew Caspar's family had such a rich history and tradition?

A representative for Ellie has been contacted by The Scholarly Note for comment – but it seems like she's too busy enjoying her new life as a single woman (or is that a new couple?)
