The singing sensation has many a tat on his back, and they’re seen in full glory in his new Disney+ docu-series.
A topless Ed shows off his ink as he takes a dip at his Suffolk estate, and reveals one of the footprints of his daughter Lyra Antarctica, two, and another of the footprints of his youngest, Jupiter, 12 months.
The footprints appear in frames on Ed’s back and they’re surrounded by colour.
But fans have noticed that the 32-year-old, who shares his two children with wife Cherry Seaborn, has two additional frames beneath them, left empty.
Many have speculated that this is a hint at how many children the Eyes Closed singer plans to have.
A source previously said: “He has Lyra’s footprints in one and is saving the other spaces for the three more kids he wants.
“Now he just needs to persuade his wife Cherry to have more.”
Ed announced on September 1, 2020, that Cherry had given birth to their first baby, a girl called Lyra Antarctica Seaborn Sheeran.
The superstar singer shared a sweet snap of a pair of socks belonging to his daughter to reveal the happy news.
The couple kept Cherry’s pregnancy quiet, and chose not to announce the news in public.
Then on May 19, 2022, Ed revealed they had welcomed another daughter.
They again kept Cherry’s pregnancy a secret.
Taking to Instagram Ed wrote: “I 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 now be a family of four.”
The couple knew each other from school but it wasn’t until 2015 that Ed asked her out and they began dating.
The pair got engaged over Christmas 2017.
Ed took to Instagram in January 2018 and announced to his followers that he had proposed to his long time love Cherry.
He captioned the snap: “Got myself a fiancé just before new year. We are very happy and in love, and our cats are chuffed as well xx”
Then in February 2019, The Sun exclusively revealed that the pair had got married in secret.
