Singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran and his wife, Cherry Seaborn, have welcomed their second baby daughter into the world.
The couple is reportedly “over the moon,” as are thousands of his fans who were eager to congratulate the pair.
Ed shared a picture of a tiny pair of socks on his Instagram page along with the caption: “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.”
The post has since been liked by over 1.4 million fans, with thousands taking to the comments section to share in the celebration.
One fan wrote: “Congrats Ed!! I can’t wait for the music you make that’s inspired by her.”
While another gushed: “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I CAN’T BELIEVE!!!! So happy for you guys!!”
“Congratulations! You guys deserve THE BEST. Sending all beautiful wishes to your family Ed,” wrote a third excited fan.
A fourth fan brought up his eldest daughter Lyra, who is now almost 2, sharing how good a big sister she will be: “Omg. Congratulations Ed and Cherry. Lyra will be the best big sister ever to your little baby girl.”
Ed and Cherry, who met in school, became first-time parents back in 2020 when they welcomed their eldest daughter Lyra Antarctica Seaborn Sheeran.
The announcement was similar to their latest, with Ed posting a photo of socks on his Instagram, along with the caption: “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.”
Explaining their first daughter’s choice of name, Ed told British TV presenter Lorraine in 2021: “I realize some people think it’s quite a strange name.
“But my wife’s called Cherry, and she is the only Cherry that I’ve ever met, and I think that she’s the only Cherry that she’s ever met, and I quite like that. In my class at school, there were probably more Eds.” Adding that they “just wanted to give her a name that was unique, so that she would be the only one.”
Sadly, we’ll have to wait a little longer to find out what they’ve named their new addition, but you can check out their sweet post here.
Congratulations to Ed and Cherry!
