Ellie Goulding reportedly romantically involved with surfing instructor

The former pair tied the knot in 2019 after dating for a few years. They also welcomed their son Arthur in April 2021. However, reports of issues between them have begun to surface lately.

The issues ignited further when Goulding was reportedly seen PDAing with surfing instructor Armando Perez in Costa Rica. Perez had earlier given surfing lessons to Shakira.

A mole told The Sun, “Ellie and Armando seemed very into each other. They share a lot of interests including their love of nature and the ocean.”

“Armando runs a surf school on the beach with his brother and he has been giving Ellie lessons. When Armando wasn’t teaching Ellie, he couldn’t keep his hands off her and pulled her in for a hug and a kiss,” they further stated.

The insider added, “Ellie looked blissfully happy and was laughing and joking with him as they messed around in the sea.”
