Ed Sheeran has uprooted his life in the UK in favour of moving to the US with his family.
The Shape of You hitmaker, 34, is currently based in Suffolk with his wife, Cherry Seaborn, 33, and daughters Lyra, five, and Jupiter, three.
But the family is set to up sticks and move across the pond, leaving their £3.7 million mansion dubbed Sheeranville behind.
This is just one part of his large property portfolio, reportedly worth £57 million, which includes a reported 22 homes in London.
I’m just about to move to America,’ he told The 2 Johnnies podcast. ‘I feel like I might be the only person moving to America.
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 went on to explain what he will miss moving away from his UK pad – something that will be painfully relatable to sports fans.
Ed admitted he will no longer be able to watch Ipswich Town play, a club that he owns a 1.4% stake in.
‘I went to almost every game last season – I think I can only make one this season because I’m moving to the States,’ he continued.
He has not revealed where he will be moving to in the States.

‘I do think that there is a different kind of normal that is our business. I have like 24-hour security on my house. I have security with my kids.
I have security with me. I have security with my wife, just because there have been a couple of weird things over the years that have happened,’ he said on The Louis Theroux Podcast.
He clarified that this practice was completely normal in the music industry because of the ‘dangerous people’ out there, plus he’d experienced a recent break-in attempt.
‘Just so you know, there are lots of dangerous people out there. We’ve had, like you know, a break-in attempt.
In my industry, that’s normal. That’s kind of like an underlying thing that no one really talks about, but that is kind of a part of being in the public eye.’
