Ed Sheeran expecting first child with wife

The couple chose to keep their pregnancy under wraps in lockdown

Congratulations are in order for singer Ed Sheeran and his wife Cherry Seaborn, as the two get ready for the arrival of their first child.

The Shape of You hit-maker and Seaborn are just weeks away from welcoming their baby, reported Britain’s The Sun. The couple decided to keep their pregnancy under wraps during the Covid-19 lockdown.

According to a source close to them, the duo is “over the moon” and busy in preparations for the arrival of their little one. “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,” a source was quoted.

“They’re just making the last of the preparations at home, and the baby is expected later this summer. It’s a really happy time and their families are all totally delighted for them and cannot wait to meet the new arrival,” they added.

The good news comes almost a year after Sheeran’s shocking announcement that he would be taking an “extended break” from song-writing and singing and instead, focusing on his personal life.

Sheeran and Seaborn have now been together for five years. However, the superstar only confirmed last summer that the two had tied the knot in January 2019.
