Ed Sheeran's wife Cherry Seaborn makes 'new career move' amid speculation about 'marriage issues'

Ed Sheeran's wife Cherry Seaborn is said to have made a new career move amid continued speculation from fans he could be singing about "marriage issues" on his latest album.

Seaborn, 31, is reportedly launching her own business after registering the retail brand Babes In Armour with Companies House.

According to The Sun, the documents suggest she will be selling a string of products including toiletries, lingerie and maternity wear.

A source told the publication: "Cherry has a career of her own and isn't interested in Ed's fame. Ed loves that she has her own passions.

"Babes In Armour was an idea she had with a friend, costume designer Jemima Penny and there are lots of possibilities.

"They have registered the name and are working out the finer details of what their new business will be. It's very exciting."

The news comes as Sheeran fans continue to speculate about whether he and Seaborn are facing marital problems after he hinted that they were on Autumn Variations.

Although it's not known if the star, 32, is singing about his own personal experiences, the album, which was released in September has led to speculation from fans his wife "may have called time" on their relationship.

His song Punchline has lyrics stating: "I can’t help but be destructive right now. It’s been weeks since I saw your outline.

"In my room is a silence so loud. This is what losing hope might sound like... I can’t help it but I love you so. I can’t take this letting go. I still feel like we could work it out or something. All I am is only flesh and bone. Why’s your heart so freezing cold?"

In another song he croons: "This is not the end of our lives, this is just a bump in the ride. I know that it’ll be alright."

While in track, The Day I Was Born, he sings: "I broke apart from my lover a couple months ago, if they were here then I guess I wouldn’t be alone."

The couple first met at the age of 11 as students of Thomas Mills High School in rural Suffolk. They started dating in 2015 and wed in 2019 and are parents to daughters Jupiter, 17 months, and Lyra, two.

A representative for Sheeran has been contacted by Evening Standard Online for comment.
