Insiders told me Ellie has sold the property for £2.55m – £625,000 less than she paid for it.

A source said: “The property market is a killer at the minute and Ellie just wanted to get rid.

“She has a decent portfolio of properties but she’s been readjusting following her break-up with Caspar earlier this year.”

At the start of this month I caught up with Ellie when she performed a sold-out show in Ischgl, Austria.

And as well as juggling her properties, she has been busy working on the follow-up to her last No1 album, Higher Than Heaven.

Ellie said: “I’ve had more time to actually get in the studio and spend the time and sit.

“Songs don’t come that easily to me, especially when they’re more of a personal piece.

“Sometimes the best songs come from just sitting around, drinking tea, talking.

CONGRATULATIONS to Selena Gomez who got engaged... over a taco.

The singing superstar announced on Instagram that her songwriter boyfriend Benny Blanco had popped the question and she shared snaps of them having a picnic and, above, showing off her bling while getting a kiss from her fiance.

Alongside the photo, which showed they celebrated with a takeaway from fast food joint Taco Bell, she wrote: “Forever begins now.”

And her best pal Taylor Swift has already got dibs on her role in the ceremony. On the post, which has already been liked by 12million people, Tay commented: “Yes I will be the flower girl.”

The couple got together last year after working together on a single which was ironically called Single Soon.

Lily Collins also congratulated them, writing: “Ahhhhhhhh yes yes yes!! Best news ever. Couldn’t be more happy for you both.”

That is going to be one hell of a glitzy wedding.

“It took him 20 minutes. And all he asked was about which way he wanted me to film the video. Everyone was so lovely.”

Every penny from Christmas Pigs will be donated to Children With Cancer UK – a charity close to Leigh’s heart.

He said: “I lost my dad to cancer when I was 21.

“You know, your parents won’t be around forever but I didn’t know our time together would be so short.

“My sister and my mum are still broke by it.

“When they have a drink there are always tears and I say to them, ‘They better be tears of joy.’”

One spin of Christmas Pigs will definitely put a smile on their faces.

Cynthia Erivo is up for Best Actress, while Ariana Grande has got a Best Supporting Actress nod.

The film is also in the running for Best Picture and Best Acting Ensemble, and Jon M Chu has a Best Director nod.

I think next year will be all about Wicked, starting with the Critics Choice bash on January 12. If you’ve yet to see it, it’s well worth a watch.
