Ed Sheeran is potentially the most famous ginger person to ever walk the planet. Yes even more than Price Harry.
He's broken record after record and is pretty much always on your radio whether you like it or not. He's on the face of potentially the nation's favourite sauce and now he's broken the record for top grossing tour ever. Sheeran is here to stay, so we might as well embrace the Suffolk born singer and learn a little more about him. Here's all you need to know about Ed Sheeran including his net worth, his wife and his best collaborations.
Ed Sheeran's Net worth
In the latest edition of the Sunday Times Rich List, Ed Sheeran was named the 17th highest earning British musician with a net worth of £160 million.
Who's Ed Sheeran's wife?
Ed keeps a lot of his personal life to himself, but he recently let it slip that he'd married his high school sweetheart, Cherry Seaborn, 27. The couple have been in a relationship now for the past few of years, but their friendship actually extends much further back than that. The couple first crossed paths at Thomas Mills High School in Framlingham, Suffolk, where it's reported that the Divide singer had a crush on hockey player Seaborn. The pair finished secondary school together, but Seaborn soon jetted off to the States to attend Duke University in North Carolina, leaving Ed on British soil where he would soon become a global megastar and undisputed king of the gingers. After university, Cherry remained in the US for work. In fact, Ed recently revealed that his new love was working on Wall Street, the financial district of New York, when they rekindled their relationship and got back together. The new Mrs Sheeran has been the inspiration behind many of the star's songs, notably his 2017 hit Perfect.

The latest Sheeran stories
Just last week, Ed decided the best way to stop his neighbours complaining about the constant building going on near his house was to buy all of their houses. He's also just broken U2's record for the highest grossing tour of all time.
