ELLIE Goulding showed off her incredible figure as she continued her loved up trip to Costa Rica.
The 37-year-old has returned to the country to spend time with new love – Armando Perez – following her split from husband Caspar Jopling.
The Sun was first to reveal Ellie had been spending time with the surfing instructor last month, when she was pictured without her wedding ring.
The new couple looked loved up as they chatted on the beach making the most of the warm weather.
Armando, who gave Shakira surf lessons in the past, showed off his tan body, while Ellie wore a pair of white shorts with her bikini top.
An insider previously told us of her blossoming new relationship and said: “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.
“Ellie looked blissfully happy and was laughing and joking with him as they messed around in the sea.”
Last month Ellie, known for hits including River and Burn, told fans it was over with art dealer Jay – who she married in 2019.
Ellie, who shares son Arthur with Caspar, said: “Caspar and I separated some time ago. We remain the closest of friends and have been successfully co-parenting with our son’s best interests at heart.
“We are committed to protecting our family privacy and thank people in advance for respecting it. We won’t be commenting further.”
Pals confirmed to The Sun how Ellie and Caspar separated after their marriage hit the rocks last summer.
A source said: “Ellie and Caspar are both absolutely dedicated to their little boy and make amazing co-parents.
“They haven’t been together for some time but are still just as close.
“If they have time they want to get away on holiday with their little boy later this year.
“It’s really important for Ellie and Caspar that they stay friends and they’re both free agents who can see other people.
“They’re both being very adult about the situation and are carrying on as normal.”
Ellie and Caspar married in York Minster in August 2019, with the couple welcoming their son two years later.
The Sun first revealed how the couple were taking time apart last summer, with Ellie striking up a friendship with former Tory MP Zac Goldsmith.
