Ellie surprises online newlyweds
ELLIE GOULDING has surprised an NHS nurse with a live performance during her online wedding.
The singer strummed on the guitar and performed her hit Love Me Like You Do over a Zoom video call as nurse Hayley Pitman shared her first dance with new husband Harvey Skelton.
The couple had been due to get married last weekend at Manor By The Lake in Cheltenham but were forced to postpone the ceremony due to the coronavirus crisis.
Instead Pitman, a theatre practitioner at Bristol Hospital, and her rugby coach partner, tied the knot in an online ceremony watched by their family and friends via video link. They were then treated to a performance by Goulding who sang the song they had planned for their first dance, in a surprise arranged by wedding directory company For Better For Worse.
Goulding told them: “Congratulations Harvey and Hayley, you are both heroes and we all love you.”
