Ed arrived in New York on Wednesday, and was spotted visiting the Paramount and CBS offices dressed casually in a black hoodie, joggers and colourful trainers. As per ‘Female First UK’, his trip followed a wave of speculation about his plans after comments on a podcast suggested he was preparing to settle in America for good.



But addressing the reports in a new Instagram post, Ed said: “Way easier to clear up stuff on here so here’s me setting the record straight, coz there’s deffo a narrative press are trying to push that people wanna move out of UK for some reason. I’m not moving, I’m going on tour with my family and relocating to the continent I’m touring on, don’t wanna commute from London to San Diego obvz. Also this isn’t a tax thing, it’s USA not UAE. I always pay tax in the UK coz that’s where I live. Play out Friday go listen to it (sic).”

About Ed Sheeran

Ed, who owns an estimated 70-million-pound property portfolio, recently bought a 9-million-pound home in New York but spends most of his time at Sheeranville, his Suffolk estate, with his wife Cherry Seaborn and their daughters Lyra and Jupiter.

Speaking on the 2 Johnnies podcast earlier this year, Ed had said, “I’m just about to move to America. I feel like I might be the only person moving to America. 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”.

The singer also previously spoke of ambitions to transition into country music. He said: “When you transition to country, you can’t transition back. Nashville is my favourite city in the States and it’s always been my end goal to move to Nashville and transition to country.”

While Sheeran is currently planning for his upcoming Loop Tour through Europe and Australia, the singer has yet to announce any North American tour dates.
