Oh no! Ellie Goulding, 34, has recalled the awkward moment she told an ex she was in love with him but he DIDN’T say it back

Ellie confessed that she has to be ‘careful’ when writing love songs because of a past experience where she was too eager in expressing her love for a man.

Asked by Capital Breakfast show host Roman Kemp if she used a romantic tune to express her love for someone, Ellie replied: ‘That’s the problem though, because I do love writing love songs, you have to be careful.

‘In the past I’ve definitely been overly enthusiastic … I once told a guy, I’m just going to say it because why not…

‘I did once tell a guy I was in love with him and he didn’t say it back and actually didn’t say it back for a long time. I honestly did want the ground to make way for me to fall into the earth and never return.’

There were also rumoured relationships with Ed Sheeran and even Prince Harry.     

Speaking to PEOPLE, she said: ‘Twenties was just a disaster in so many ways. I had these relationships at the time that were everything.

‘A couple years later, I’m like, “Why did I waste their time and mine by thinking it was something more than it was?”.
