The couple had been together nearly two years when they decided to take a ‘break’ in December however, by the New Year were back an item and stronger than ever.
Speaking to Red magazine, the 28-year-old explained how the break was just what they needed and showed her that: “You don’t throw something like that away so easily.”

Ellie says how Dougie came into her life just as she was beginning to doubt she’d be in a relationship anytime soon.
“Before him, I was having a single period and hating all men, saying never again, after a series of things that happened to me. But then I met him and was like, uh-oh, game over. He was just so nice.”
The McFly star was recently spotted backstage at rehearsals for Ellie’s Delirium world tour which kicked off in Germany 10 days ago.

Ellie’s tour schedule sounds grueling to say the least and the star admits that often she will work 20 hour days and struggle to find time to even eat:
“The last month has been really testing, on everything, on my sanity. The music industry isn’t like other industries – there are no rules about working hours, or taking breaks. A working day will start with a 4 am flight and finish at 3 am the next day. Sometimes I don’t have time to eat in the day.”
Yikes - we think we need a lie-in just thinking about it.
