Cameras spotted Ellie Goulding while she is out shopping for Christmas gifts at London's Knightsbridge last Sunday. However, she was not with her long-time boyfriend, Dougie Poynter, but with someone else instead - a so-called mystery man.
The "Love Me Like You Do" singer allegedly broke up recently with Poynter, which perhaps is the reason why Goulding is with a different guy rather than him. Some pictures have spread showing Goulding and this mystery man walking through Hyde Park. No public display of affection happened though as their hands were both inside each of their coat pockets, Latin Post said.
The two then went on to Harvey Nichols to do some Yuletide season shopping. Mail Online reported that the "On My Mind" singer kept it plain and simple as she barely had make-up on and her blonde hair loose. She wore black jeans, faux fur jacket and trainers. The mystery man, on the other, wore black jeans as well, thick coat and a scarf to keep him warm.
Reports say that this mystery man is just a male friend of Goulding. She is probably not ready to be in a relationship yet as she and the Mcfly member are just having a cool off. The two have dated for 18 months before their busy work schedules got in the way, making them spend less time with each other. But some also say it's because of Poynter's unwillingness to settle down.
Celebs Now further reported that not only does Goulding lean on to this mystery man for support but also to her old flame, One Direction's Niall Horan. The former lovebirds are seemingly going to write a new song together.
"It goes without saying that writing a song with someone you are friends with and someone you get on with, you can't really replace that with anything. I write the best songs with someone I feel truly comfortable with," Goulding said.
With this, time can only tell whether Goulding will get back with her former beau or with her much former boyfriend whom she will make some sweet music with.
