Ellie Goulding touches upon post natal benefits to singing career

Ellie Goulding is touching upon the benefits of welcoming motherhood

The ‘Love Me Like You Do’ hitmaker, who is currently promoting her new album I Know Too Much, says welcoming her daughter Iris with boyfriend Beau Minniear has amped up the process.

Speaking on the latest episode of Sunday's Later... With Jools Holland, Ellie revealed: “Music and performing is the thing that keeps me going. I have two children now so the first time I went back in the studio, I was kind of a robot.”

“I made this 2023 album called Higher Than Heaven and I don't remember it.

She added: “Any woman that's had a baby can relate to that postnatal phase of, 'What the hell just happened to me?'. So I wrote all this music.”

“Someone heard a song from it the other day and was like, 'I thought this was AI, that's the new thing'. And I was like, kind of, because I was like a robot and didn't know what I was doing for a time,” the singer continued.

“Now I'm much more human and I have done it already, so this time around I'm a lot more equipped to get back into that mindset,” she said.
