The couple first hinted at their relationship back in November after they were spotted at a hotel in London. They then appeared to confirm their romance by posting about a romantic hike on New Year’s Eve.

Event insiders have revealed to a national publication that the couple looked smitten as they partied the night away in their first-ever public appearance together at the London-based club. Lewis Capaldi is said to be fully in love with Ellie MacDowall and could not be happier.

A source told The Sun: “He has been dating Ellie for some time now and while they are usually very low key, he couldn’t keep his hands off her at the after-party. It was very sweet to see him so happy, and Ellie clearly adores him too.

“They sat on the sofa kissing and talking for a while before Lewis headed off to the dance floor. He was throwing some serious shapes to Hot Chocolate’s You Sexy Thing at one point while Ellie just looked on smiling. They make a lovely couple.”
