Ed Sheeran is one of the most successful musicians in the world. His marriage proposal, however, almost went wrong.
Berlin – World pop star Ed Sheeran (30, “Bad Habits”) has revealed details of the marriage proposal to his wife Cherry Seaborn – which was anything but smooth.
“I asked her,” Do you want to marry me? “And she replied,” Are you kidding? ” I remember that afterwards there was a long silence before I followed up: “Please?”. This is how the Briton told the story on the Swedish-Norwegian talk show “Skavlan”, the video also appeared on YouTube on Monday.
Accordingly, he kneeled in front of her at that moment. As if that weren’t enough, it rained heavily that day. Sheeran said he built a pergola in the garden where he wanted to ask for his wife’s hand at sunset and wine. It would not have been possible to wait a day because the date was engraved on the ring. “I kept saying to her:” We should go for a walk, “to which she replied” No “. “Are you sure you don’t want to go out?” And time was ticking. “
In the end, Cherry said yes – although, according to Sheeran, her parents weren’t married when she was a kid, so he wasn’t sure she’d even accept. The couple got married in January 2019 in a small chapel “with almost no one there”. “My wedding was a very minor affair,” Sheeran said on the talk show. There was homemade curry to eat. “We were in bed at midnight,” Sheeran said.
The singer already knows Cherry Seaborn from school, but it should have sparked between the two much later. At first they had a long-distance relationship as she lived in the USA. In 2016, however, she returned to the UK. Last September, the couple announced the birth of their first daughter, who was given the curious name Lyra Antarctica, on social media. dpa
