Ed Sheeran has voiced concerns about his daughter suffering from depression in the future as it runs in his family.

The Bad Habits hit-maker, 30, shares 14-month-old Lyra Antarctica with wife Cherry Seaborn, 29.

Appearing on Swedish TV, he said: “I don’t want her to have the ability to have real lows.

“I would hate for her to have that, I know she will, as it runs in my family. But I would hate for her to feel sad and not know why.”

Sheeran has spoken openly about his own mental health, admitting that it suffered during the Covid-19 lockdown.

He said: “I just got sad. Any major thing that happens in my life, the most positive thing I can do from that is write a song.”

He recently teased that he is set to release a Christmas song with long-time friend Sir Elton John, 74.
