Ed Sheeran has revealed plans to relocate to America with his wife, Cherry Seaborn, and their daughters, Lyra (5) and Jupiter (3). Ed Sheeran announced it during an episode of the 2 Johnnies podcast on September 8, 2025, about the move, saying, “I’m just about to move to America.”
Sheeran’s decision is tied to his upcoming U.S. tour and his desire to settle with his family. “I’m going on tour there for a while, and I have a family, so I can’t dip in and out. We’re going and settling there,” he explained. The move marks a significant shift for the artist, who has primarily lived at his estate in Suffolk, UK, when not touring.
While Sheeran didn’t confirm his exact destination, he has often expressed his love for Nashville, Tennessee. In a prior Call Her Daddy podcast, he called Nashville “my favourite city in the States” and shared his ambition to transition to country music. “My end goal would be to move to Nashville and transition to country,” he said, adding, “I feel like once you transition to country, you can’t go back.”
