Speaking on Good Morning America, about how he’s finding fatherhood, he explained: ‘It’s great. We’re in the trenches.’

Giving a further insight he added: ‘They’ve been on tour with me. My second daughter was born while we were on tour, but my first daughter comes to the shows, she’s quite aware.

‘I think she assumes everyone else’s dad sings as well, though,’ Ed joked.

‘It’s every cliché that people say about parenting. You love both kids exactly the same but also completely differently. I’m really enjoying being a father of two,’ he continued. 

Ed shocked fans in May when he revealed that he and Cherry had secretly welcomed another daughter, announcing he was ‘over the moon to be a family of four.’

The Shape Of You hitmaker took to Instagram to share a snap of white pair of baby booties, that he captioned: ‘Want to let you all know we’ve had another beautiful baby girl. We are both so in love with her, and over the moon to be a family of 4 x’

The star had announced the birth of Lyra in a similar way, sharing a snap of her baby socks on a blanket alongside his message.

The couple reportedly only confided in their closest family members about the pregnancy.

Ed’s spokesperson confirmed: ‘Ed and Cherry recently welcomed a beautiful baby girl and are on cloud nine.

‘They’re so excited for Lyra to have a little sister and the four of them are currently enjoying some precious family time before Ed heads back on tour.

‘We are delighted for them, and we hope that you can respect their privacy at this special time.’

Speaking on the Open house Party podcast in June, Ed revealed he would be ‘super grateful’ to add more members to his family.

The West Yorkshire-born star said: ‘I would obviously be super grateful to be able to have any more kids, but I think girls are far superior to boys. As a boy myself, I feel like I can say this.

‘I feel like we were so lucky to be able to have one that I think I would obviously love more. But I think we’re so lucky to just have one. So if nothing else happens, I’m so happy, basically.’

In November, Ed revealed having his daughter Lyra Antarctica was a ‘blessing’ and a ‘miracle’ after struggling to conceive with his wife Cherry.

The singer told how the couple had booked doctors appointments to check everything was okay after ‘trying to have a kid for a while’.

They then welcomed their first child last August, after conceiving naturally during a holiday in 2019 to Antarctica – which inspired the unusual name
