Ellie Goulding reflects on 'full circle' friendship with Craig David

Ellie Goulding took to the stage at Hits Live Birmingham and put on an AMAZING performance! While backstage she reflected on her friendship with Craig David, who was also there.

While chatting to Sarah-Jane Crawford, Craig David came over to say hello to Ellie and she said: "He was my first ever concert here at the NEC (before it became Resorts World Arena) and then he performed at my wedding.

"It’s such a full-circle thing! It was the main talking point at my wedding - I still have people texting me about it now."

Ellie then took to the stage and wowed the crowd with performances of 'All by Myself', 'I Need Your Love', 'Let It Die' and 'Love Me Like You Do'.
