Niall Horan

Confirmation that she dated Niall Horan. The information isn't in either of their articles: https://www.heatworld.com/amp/celebrity/news/ellie-goulding-confirms-dated-niall-horan-says-never-relationship-ed-sheeran/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 31.187.51.174 (talk • contribs) 5:23, 20 July 2021 (UTC)

Correction: Family

Small correction but for some reason I felt the need to point it out. Article states brother Alex as being older than Goulding, this is incorrect. Alex Goulding was a friend of mine through college. I don't recall his birthday but we were in the same academic year and I was born in 1988. This would make him younger, not older than Goulding. 51.9.171.181 (talk) 11:39, 30 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Do you have a reliable source to support this information? Segaton (talk) 18:17, 30 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Of course not.. nothing that could be cited, its hardly headline news. I could direct you to his Facebook page (which, now I check, confirms his DOB as 5 July 1989) but it is set to private. Here's a screenshot. https://freeimage.host/i/j1vXJS 51.9.171.181 (talk) 10:18, 7 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Not bad. Fixed here. Segaton (talk) 16:58, 7 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

There seems to be a discrepency with the sisters as well. While Daily Mirror isn't exactly the most reliable source out there per WP:RSPS (which states there's "no consensus" on its reliability in comparison to other British tabloids), this article mentions the ages of her siblings.^[1] It is dated 4 June 2015, so Ellie would have been 28 at the time. It mentions "her sisters Isabel, now 30, and Jordan, 23" as well as "brother Alex, 25" (which corroborates anon's account that Alex is younger than Ellie). I think the best course of action would be to remove any mentions of age for all siblings. Bizarre Bizarre^{Talk modern to me} 18:08, 7 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
