Ed Sheeran is known for keeping things private – and he may have just pulled off his biggest stealth move to date.

The Perfect singer has basically confirmed he has married girlfriend Cherry Seaborn, seven months after confirming his engagement.

The 27-year-old was speaking to Access when he strongly hinted that he and Cherry tied the knot without any of us knowing.

The interviewer asked Ed: What about the wedding details? Have you picked a date? Do you know when, do you know where yet?

Ed blushed, shrugged, and then gestured towards a silver ring on his left hand while smiling.

The reporter said: Alright! Thats exciting! Congratulations my friend. How did you sneak that one?

The singer replied: Well, I never really do anything too public anyway.

When the reporter said: Thats awesome, Ed said: Thank you – so not a full confirmation, but a pretty strong hint.

Ed and Cherry got engaged towards the end of 2017, and Ed confirmed the happy news on 20 January, writing on Instagram: Got myself a fiancé just before new year. We are very happy and in love, and our cats are chuffed as well xx.

The pair attended Thomas Mills High School in Framlingham, Suffolk, together. It is believed they started dating in 2015, and have kept their relationship relatively private.

Cherry moved to North Carolina to attend Duke University, but she moved back to the UK be with her beau in December 2016.

With rumours emerging of an all-star wedding guestlist including A-list pals Courteney Cox and Taylor Swift, and reports claiming Ed was building a private church, we expect the wedding was a classy affair – but we knew the couple wouldnt be splashing their big day over the glossies.

Ed previously revealed he and his fiance – or wife – were already wearing rings so nobody would know when they officially tied the knot.

He told Lorraine Kelly: We didnt get secretly married, no, [Cherry] made me this ring out of silver clay, so we were both kinda wearing rings.
