Ed Sheeran trades England for America in big move with wife and children

"I'm just about to move to America. I feel like I might be the only person moving to America," said Sheeran, who grew up in an English town called Framlingham, but currently resides in Suffolk. "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."

Earlier this year, Sheeran opened up about his future plans to transition into country music. 

"When you transition to country, you can't transition back," Sheeran, who shares two young daughters with wife, Cherry Seaborn, told Alex Cooper during an appearance on "Call Her Daddy." "Nashville is my favorite city in the States, and it's always been my end goal to move to Nashville and transition to country."

In 2013, Sheeran further expressed his love for Nashville. 

"I don't think people really care [about celebrities] in Nashville," he said. "Even if they knew who you were, I don't think they'd care. They'd just be like, 'Eh.'"

Unlike Sheeran, many celebrities - including Ellen DeGeneres and Rosie O'Donnell - have fled the States for a life abroad. 

Initially, the move was meant to be a part-time getaway. But after election night, things took a more permanent turn.
