Ed Sheeran looked every inch the doting father as he was seen enjoying a family day out at the beach with his wife Cherry Seaborn and their two kids in Australia.
The singer, 32, is currently Down Under as part of his hotly-anticipated world tour but took some time out of his busy schedule to head to Byron Bay with his family.
He was seen sweetly cuddling up to his eldest daughter Lyra Antarctica, two, as they relaxed under a parasol with his wife Cherry, 30, amid the balmy weather.
Cherry was also seen doting on their younger daughter Jupiter, nine months, as they enjoyed some down time together as a family.
For the outing, Ed kept it casual in bright blue boardshorts and a green long-sleeved rash vest, which he wore to go for a quick dip in the ocean to cool off.

He took to Instagram at the time to announce the surprising news, sharing a picture of a white pair of baby booties.
Captioning his snap, Ed penned: ‘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 couple are also parents to Lyra Antarctica, whom they welcomed in August 2020.
In November 2021, Ed revealed having his daughter Lyra Antarctica was a ‘blessing’ and a ‘miracle’ after struggling to conceive with his wife Cherry.
The singer told how the couple had booked doctors appointments to check everything was okay after ‘trying to have a kid for a while’.
They then welcomed their first child last August, after conceiving naturally during a holiday in 2019 to Antarctica – which inspired the unusual name.
He told US radio’s The Breakfast Club: ‘We had tried for a while to have a kid, and we’d started going to doctors and figuring out what was up. I did think it was a miracle, so that’s why I was like, we should have this in the name.’
Ed and Cherry are childhood sweethearts, having grown up together in the same town.
They rekindled their romance in 2014 and tied the knot in a small ceremony five years later.

During his visit Down Under, Ed was seen enjoying a beer with his pal Liam Hemsworth as he celebrated his 32nd birthday.
The Shape of You singer’s friend Paul Berrie O’Brien’s shared an Instagram snap of the trio behind the scenes as they enjoyed some beers.
‘Showtime. Couple of pre-show settlers. Happy birthday @teddysphotos’, he captioned the snap.
Ed also paid a surprise visit to Queensland Children’s Hospital in Brisbane on Sunday and kindly played his music for the children, much to their delight.
He also thrilled students at two middle schools last week when he gave a surprise performance for the youngsters in Auckland, New Zealand.
