The singer, 31, took to Instagram on Thursday night to announce the shock news, sharing a picture of a white pair of baby socks.

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 x’

The couple are already parents to elder daughter Lyra Antarctica, whom they welcomed in August 2020. 

The birth will come as a complete surprise to fans as the Shape Of You hitmaker and his partner had not previously announced their second pregnancy.

In November, Ed revealed having his daughter Lyra Antarctica was a ‘blessing’ and a ‘miracle’ after struggling to conceive with his wife Cherry, 30. 

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.
