But who is Ellie's husband Caspar Jopling? What does he do for a living, how old is he and what is his net worth? Let’s find out…
Ellie is married to Caspar Jopling, an art dealer who's also studying for his MBA at the Saïd Business School at Oxford University.
He's 29 years old and was born on 29 January 1992.
Caspar is a professional art dealer.
He works at auction company Sothebys in New York in corporate development strategy.
He was born in Yorkshire but grew up in London.
Caspar relocated to New York for his job at Sothebys but is thought to have moved back to the UK after marrying pop star wife Ellie.
According to reports, Caspar has a net worth around $8 million (£5.7 million).
His wife Ellie is said to have a net worth around $30 million (£21 million).
Ellie and Caspar first met in 2016, but the 'Starry Eyed' singer admitted it wasn't love at first sight.
During Jessie Ware's Table Manners podcast last year Ellie said they met at a dinner party a mutual friend had organised.
She said: "It wasn't a love at first sight thing at all. We didn't fancy each other at all. We were just sat next to each other at dinner.
"I was feeling really rough. I had terrible bronchitis at the time and I was really ill - the most ill if been in ages. All I wanted to do was go to bed after the show [Jingle Bell Ball] and I went to this dinner that my friend had kindly put on for me.
"And I was sat next to Caspar and he was from a big farming family and I talked about how I was vegan. And he talked about how much he loved meat: beef and chicken and lamb and whatever else. So we literally had nothing in common."
Eventually he 'wooed' her with a string of dates, including many to art galleries and he proposed in 2017 during a 400-word puzzle.
