Ellie Goulding shows off her fantastic figure

She's been dividing her time between her native England and Costa Rica where her new boyfriend Armando Perez resides.

And Ellie Goulding documented her latest trip to the Central American country in a flurry of Instagram snaps on Wednesday.

The British pop star, 37, put her fantastic figure on display as she modelled a skimpy black bikini that showcased her toned abs and peachy bottom.

She posed up a storm on Playa Hermosa beach where she had been photographed frolicking with Armando and a friend on Friday.

As well as spending time by the ocean, the mother-of-one - who recently split from her husband Caspar Jopling - explored the lush rainforest on her trip.

Ellie captioned the snaps 'Opacity', meaning the quality of being difficult to understand or know about.

It marks the latest trip the singer has made to Costa Rica since ringing in the New Year in the tropical country that borders Nicaragua and Panama.

Ellie first met Armando while on a girl's holiday in the surfer's paradise in December.

Since then, Ellie, who confirmed her split from the father of her child Caspar, 31, in February, has been spotted several times on the vast coastline near Santa Teresa.

Her first appearance alongside the surf instructor, who previously taught Colombian singer Shakira on the same beach, sparked a flurry of rumours that she had separated from art-dealer Armando.

The pictures taken in February which showed Ellie frolicking around in the sea with Armando without her wedding ring only fuelled speculation that she and her husband had been living apart for six months.

The once-loved couple, who were married in August 2019 at York Minster surrounded by A-list guests, were said to be trying to work out for their three-year-old son Arthur.

After the first images emerged of Ellie cuddling up to Armando, the musician wrote on Instagram: '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 son's 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.'

Ellie and Caspar who were introduced by mutual friend Princess Eugene, are now expected to divorce after exhausting all other options, sources previously said.

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 said it was not the ideal ending for her but it is the 'only one' after exhausting all possibilities with Caspar.

A pal previously revealed: '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.'

They continued: '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.'

Ellie and Caspar were last seen together on a family day out after the Burn hitmaker ended her friendship with Tory peer Zac Goldsmith to 'focus on her marriage.'

The pop star and Caspar were married five years ago surrounded by celebrity friends including Sienna Miller, Orlando Bloom and Katy Perry.

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.
