Ed Sheeran is reportedly set build his own chapel on his Suffolk estate ahead of his wedding to fiance Cherry Seaborn.

Following the Shape of You singer's proposal to his childhood sweetheart, he has submitted plans to build the chapel on his property.

According to the Belfast Telegraph, the plans were submitted to Suffolk Coastal District Council.

The planning documents reveal that the chapel would be made of flint, in a Saxon style, with a rounded tower.

The application states: “It is every person’s right to be able to have a place of retreat for contemplation and prayer, for religious observance, celebration of key life and family milestones, marriages, christenings and so forth.”

The news comes after the Supermarket Flowers singer sparked speculation that the pair had already wed when he was spotted wearing a silver band at the BRIT Awards, days after he sported the same ring at a gig.

Seaborn, who accompanied Sheeran to the event, was also wearing a silver ring that was clearly visible as she embraced him following his Global Success win.

But Sheeran told Good Morning Britain that he is still just engaged, saying: “I’m not married. I’m wearing an engagement ring as well.

“I feel like, you know, you both should,” he added.

Later, Sheeran told ITV's Lorraine that his ring was made by Seaborn, out of silver clay.

Sources close to the 27-year-old previously told The Sun: “Ed is wearing a ring to show his commitment to being engaged to Cherry but he’s not married yet.

“He’s amused by the fuss it’s caused however has no intentions of taking it off, so it’ll be on his hand during his BRITs performance.”

The superstar took to the stage during the ceremony to perform ballad Supermarket Flowers.
