Ellie, 34, revealed the news in an interview with Vogue magazine in which she admitted she hasn't been out in public with her baby bump.
"We did the one show. I was pregnant and had no idea,” she told the fashion magazine about her last public outing - a live-streamed concert.
“That was [around] the time when Caspar and I went away briefly when we were allowed to for our one-year anniversary, and that’s basically when we found out.
"It was crazy because it was our one-year anniversary," she added.
