The 'Love Me Like You Do' songstress announced her exciting baby news in February when she was 30 weeks pregnant. People magazine reported the Grammy nominee told Vogue in an interview, "the thought of getting pregnant didn't seem like it could be a reality." Goulding noted that she and her husband found out while they were celebrating their one-year anniversary in August. "Becoming pregnant kind of made me feel human.

My husband's enjoying it," she added. Ellie Goulding Announces Her Pregnancy, Singer Is Expecting First Child with Husband Caspar Jopling.

As reported by People magazine, talking about why she waited until her third trimester to announce the baby news, Goulding said she "needed time to get my head around it." "I've always defined myself as a touring musician. That's who I am and what I do. Being a mother wasn't in my mind frame, I've never felt any woman had to be defined by motherhood," the 34-year-old singer said during a March interview with The Telegraph.
