Childhood friends singer Ed Sheeran and wife Cherry Seaborn are expecting their first child together.

The couple has been married for two years now but met during their school days. They are reportedly in the final preparations ahead of the arrival of their child.

According to a source, the couple is elated at the prospect of becoming parents and have been able to keep the news a secret for a while now.

"Ed and Cherry are over the moon. They're very excited but have kept things very low-key. Lockdown was a perfect excuse not to be seen out and about too much," the source told the Daily Mail.

It is reported the couple has started telling friends and family the good news and all cannot wait for the new arrival.
