Unveiling her newborn's name, the Starry Eyed singer said: "Minniear-Goulding: On 6th March 2026 to Ellie Goulding and Beau Minniear, a daughter, Iris Edeline."
On Ellie's reveal post, she added a black and white snap of a cake that showed icing reading "Welcome baby sister". The pop star also shared pictures of flowers she had received. Some of them included ones she had placed under a banner that read: "Oh baby baby."
The reveal comes a month after Ellie's Greggs and McDonald's themed baby shower. For the occasion, Ellie wore a pink and white Versace mini dress as she celebrated with her friends at the Union Club in Soho.
She was joined by a number of her famous pals, including the boyband Blue. The friends belted out some hits, with the band and Ellie seen singing together in a video posted by actress Brook Nader.
The star wrote over the top: "Iconic Mama, @elliegoulding @officialblue (Don't bother inviting me to a baby shower if it ain't this fun)"
Ellie was later seen to have changed into some pyjamas and a sash that said "Preggs". Other images from the day included branded 'EG' McDonald's fries and margaritas on tap.
She is currently also writing her next album. The unreleased record is set to centre of the breakdown of her marriage to ex husband Casper Jopling. Casper is the father of her son, Arthur.
