Ed Sheeran just made a big announcement: he’s a dad again! The singer took to Instagram to share that he and wife Cherry Seaborn welcomed another baby girl, making Lyra Antarctica a big sister.
Sheeran shared the news in the same way he did the first time around, with a sweet photo of a bassinet and tiny baby socks. “Want to let you all know we’ve had another beautiful baby girl. We are both so in love with her, and over the moon to be a family of 4 x,” he captioned the image.
According to Daily Mail, Sheeran’s spokesperson confirmed the news, sharing “Ed and Cherry recently welcomed a beautiful baby girl and are on cloud nine. They’re so excited for Lyra to have a little sister and the four of them are currently enjoying some precious family time before Ed heads back on tour. We are delighted for them, and we hope that you can respect their privacy at this special time.”
No word yet on baby girl’s name but she will join sister Lyra, who was welcomed back in August 2020. Both Sheeran and Seaborn are notoriously private (who can blame them) and have never shared many details on when they’re expecting or photos.
In fact, Sheeran was on the Ellen Degeneres show back in Dec. 2021 and completely left out the fact that the fam was getting ready to expand. He did, however, share some lovely bits about how much he loves being a dad.
He tells Ellen, “I just found that I really didn’t have purpose outside of [music] because when I was giving myself fixed time of no work, I wasn’t doing anything I enjoyed because I love doing music. And [being a dad] has actually given me purpose and something in life that’s actually more important than my job.”
Well if that doesn’t sum up parenthood, we don’t know what does! Congrats to the new family of four.
