Ed Sheeran had previously announced a break from touring and social media in December. News about the couple’s pregnancy became public knowledge in August. As reported by Page Six, the couple has been spending most of the year in lockdown at Sheeran’s Suffolk home, allowing them to keep the pregnancy a secret. The Sun had reported that Cherry was in the final stage of her pregnancy and was due in “later this summer.”
The paper’s source noted, “Lockdown was a perfect excuse not to be seen out and about too much, but things are getting closer and the excitement has been building so they have started telling friends and family.”
