The hitmaker posted a slew of bikini snaps in a tropical destination and also shared rare photos of her son Arthur last week.

Ellie and Caspar, 32, confirmed their four-year marriage was over in February after it was revealed Ellie had moved on with surf instructor Armando Perez.

The couple are now currently in the midst of moving out of their family home in London as removal vans were seen outside.

But it appears Ellie is now back on social media and happily posting pictures to her 14million followers. 

Ellie and Caspar were reportedly living separate lives for at least six months, despite trying to work things out for the sake of their son.

In the update, the musician wrote: ‘In light of recent stories, I feel I have been left with no choice but to let you all know that Caspar and I privately separated some time ago.

‘We remain the closest of friends and have been successfully co-parenting with our sons best interests at heart. We are committed to protecting our family privacy and thank people in advance for respecting our wishes – we won’t be commenting further. Thank you.’

Friends of the couple told MailOnline ‘divorce is the only outcome’ following their split after two years battling to save their relationship.

Sources close to Ellie have told how it isn’t the ideal ending for her but it is the ‘only one’ after exhausting all possibilities with Caspar.

A pal said: ‘Ellie and Caspar have been over for some time now but there was this whole carry on of them pretending to be together.

‘The fact is that it is over, Ellie moved on some time ago but she didn’t want anyone to know. But now she is enjoying the company of other men and there is simply no way back.

‘It is so sad, especially because they have got little Arthur but they can’t make it work and now it, really sadly, is going to end in divorce. There is no way that the marriage can be saved, the only way it is going to end now is by divorcing.

‘It wasn’t necessarily the outcome they have always wanted but that’s where they are, Ellie is ready to date other men if he isn’t already, Caspar surely will be back out on the market again soon.’

The exes were last seen together in October during a family day out, after the musician ended her friendship with Tory peer Zac Goldsmith to ‘focus on her marriage.’

Their split was first rumoured in June 2023, when sources claimed they were ‘living apart’. 

After weeks of discussions about how they would reveal their separation, the pop star’s team finally revealed they had been spending time apart – blaming their ‘hectic schedules’ for the demise of their marriage.
