Ed Sheeran has retained his title as the richest young British star – increasing his estimated worth by £40 million in the past year to £210 million.

The 29-year-old topped Heat magazine’s annual guide to the UK and Ireland’s wealthiest stars aged 30 and under.

The Suffolk singer-songwriter, who recently welcomed his first child – a daughter called Lyra Antarctica Seaborn Sheeran, claimed the top spot from Adele in 2019 after she turned 31.

Sheeran’s wealth is partly due to his world record-breaking two-year Divide Tour, which saw him play more than 250 shows to more than seven million fans since March 2017.

Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe, second place in 2019, has dropped off the list for the first time since it began 10 years ago, after turning 31 in July.

Taking his spot is last year’s third place – former One Direction star Harry Styles, 26, with an estimated £74 million.

The singer has added £40 million to his wealth since going solo, according to the magazine, through two successful albums, a world tour and a Gucci deal.
