In August last year, several British media wrote that artist Ed Sheeran (30) and his wife Cherry Seaborn (29) were to become parents for the first time. The information came from sources, and was thus not confirmed by the star couple themselves.
– She’s just crying
The news of the pregnancy came eight months after the “Shape of You” artist announced that he would take a break from touring life and social media. It may therefore seem that he withdrew approximately when he learned that his wife was pregnant.
On September 1 last year, the artist himself confirmed the good news that he had become a father for the first time. He did so on Instagram.
“A quick message from me, who has some personal news I want to share with you. Last week, with the help of a wonderful maternity team, Cherry gave birth to our beautiful and healthy daughter – Lyra Antarctica Seaborn Sheeran “, he wrote to his 32.9 million followers.

Unusual name
Several noticed the unusual name the artist and his wife chose for their firstborn. On Thursday, the artist was a guest on the British morning show “Lorraine”, where he opened up about the background for the unusual name of his now ten-month-old daughter.
– I was bullied every single day
– I understand that some people think it’s a rather strange name, Sheeran admitted, according to People, and continued:
– But my wife’s name is Cherry, and she’s the only Cherry I’ve ever met, and I think she’s the only Cherry she’s ever met too – and I like that!

The artist further explained that he and his wife wanted to give their daughter a name that was unique, so that she would be the only one who bore that name. And maybe she is too, at least there are not many named Lyra Antarctica.
Reveals unusual baby name
Sheeran reveals that they got inspiration for their daughter’s middle name, Antarctica (Antarctica in Norwegian journ.anm.), After a trip they took to the continent shortly before Seaborn became pregnant.
– I have basically toured on every single continent, but I have never been to Antarctica, so it was always on our list. We went there in 2019 and it was just amazing. The most amazing place on earth, he said.
