Singer Ellie Goulding, 36, marked the release of her sixth studio album, "I Know Too Much," with a series of candid social media posts on Tuesday. The album features a track inspired by her relationship with boyfriend Beau Minniear, and Goulding shared playful images taken by Minniear, showcasing a floaty white mini dress.
In her Instagram post, Goulding expressed gratitude to her fans, reflecting on her lifelong passion for songwriting, which began at age eight. "I celebrate the freedom I have in weaving my voice and my words into these different soundscapes and I celebrate having you all with me on this journey to listen," she wrote. "We grow together. There's nothing more potent than that since all I ever wanted was to be a singer and hopefully have a stage and an audience to do it."
Goulding and Minniear welcomed a daughter, Iris Edaline, on March 6, 2026. The singer also has a son, Arthur, from her previous marriage to Caspar Jopling. Goulding and Jopling finalized their divorce in January 2025 and reportedly remain on good terms.
The new album, "I Know Too Much," comprises ten tracks, including "Black Prada Dress," which Goulding performed at Radio 1's Big Weekend 2026. She has previously described the album as a "divorce album," acknowledging that some songs address her past marriage. "It's probably the most honest song I've written," she said of the title track. "It is what it is. I know too much."
In addition to her social media activity, Goulding performed an intimate show at Manchester's New Century Hall on Tuesday, stunning in a black satin lace dress.
