Ellie Goulding has split from her boyfriend Skrillex
The 25-year-old singer and the dubstep producer - real name Sonny Moore - have ended their seven-month relationship after failing to make the long-distance romance work.
British musician Ellie has been busy promoting her second album `Halcyon`, while Skrillex is based in the US and they weren`t finding enough time for one another.
A source told The Sun newspaper: "It`s really sad, they were really good for each other. They just couldn`t make it work. They both have successful careers and live in different countries."
The pair started dating after Skrillex emailed Ellie to tell her he was a fan of her music.
Ellie split from her last boyfriend, DJ Greg James, in December and she recently revealed her "dark" LP `Halcyon` is inspired by the end of their 18-month relationship.
The `Starry Eyed` hitmaker was deeply "in love" with Greg and was convinced they would be together forever but they also spit because they didn`t see each other enough due to work pressures.
She previously said: "I was naive to think my relationship with Greg James wouldn`t be in the spotlight. I fell in love with him because he`s very positive and intelligent and a really good person. I thought it would be fine, that it would last forever. That I had fallen in love with someone so purely and simply was amazing to me. It was very sad that it didn`t work out and was down to factors such as not being able to see each other much."
