September 1, 2020: Ed Sheeran has revealed that he has become a dad for the first time as his wife Cherry Seaborn gave birth to a baby girl last week.

Ed took to his Instagram page and shared a photo of the woollen shawl and a pair of socks citing it for his little daughter. He posted a note regarding the arrival of the baby girl and also revealed that both mother and daughter are doing fine.

He wrote: “Ello! A quick message from me as I have some personal news that I wanted to share with you … Last week, with the help of an amazing delivery team, Cherry gave birth to our beautiful and healthy daughter – Lyra Antarctica Seaborn Sheeran.

We are completely in love with her. Both mum and baby are doing amazing and we are on cloud nine over here. We hope that you can respect our privacy at this time. Lots of love and I’ll see you when it’s time to come back, Ed x.”

Ed and Cherry have been in a relationship since 2015 and entered marital bliss in 2019. It was in August this year when reports started making the rounds about the couple embracing parenthood.
