Ed Sheeran & Wife Cherry Seaborn Are Expecting Their First Child

Another week, another pregnancy announcement. This time it’s from Ed Sheeran.

Surprise, surprise! The 29-year-old British singer is reportedly expecting his first child with wife Cherry Seaborn, 28. The soon-to-be parents have been tight-lipped about this news amid the Covid-19 lockdown.

An insider revealed that the lovebirds are over the moon at the prospect of becoming first time parents and are currently making final preparations at home before their baby is born. “Ed and Cherry are over the moon. They’re very excited, but have kept things very low key,” the source was quoted as saying.

The person added, “Lockdown was a perfect excuse not to be seen out and about too much, but things are getting closer and the excitement has been building so they have started telling friends and family. They’re just making the last of the preparations at home, and the baby is expected later this summer.”

In case you don’t remember, the Grammy Award winner announced late last year that he was taking a hiatus from the entertainment industry to focus on his personal life. “I’m starting a life with Cherry. I can’t spend the next 20 years on the road. Kids would be the different thing. I wouldn’t mind sacrificing for them. If someone told me you can’t tour again for the next 10 years if you have kids that is fine, because that is what I have signed up for,” Ed previously said.

The pair tied the knot in January 2019 and have been together for 5 years. Ed and Cherry attended Thomas Mills High School in Framlingham, Suffolk, when they were kids. She moved to the US to pursue her studies. As fate would have it, they reconnected and started dating in 2015.
