The singer, who is desperate to have kids, revealed he will turn his back on singing when he becomes a dad. Chatting in my Wired exclusive, Ed said: "My ambition is going to go to zero as soon as I have kids.
'I am going to be like, 'I do not really care anymore as I have another life to take care of'.
"It is totally understandable because you have children and your ambition shifts to be like, 'I want to be a good father'."
Ed announced his engagement to the world yesterday afternoon - less than 30 minutes after I called his team to say I was going to break the story today. After keeping their engagement top-secret for three weeks, Ed posted: "Got myself a fiancée just before New Year.
"We are very happy and in love and our cats are chuffed as well xx." The 26-year-old multi-award-winning star has stated he wants to start a family before he is 30, which means he could hang up his mic in less than four years.
And Ed confirmed he's already losing his passion to perform.
He said: "To be honest my ambition is dwindling a little bit because I have achieved far more than I thought I ever would.
"I do not know what to do next. I feel like when you play a stadium you cannot play any bigger than that because what do you do? Sell 15million albums? What do you do on your next album?
"My ambition next is a silly small ambition to write a country music song that goes to number one on country radio in America.
"I know that is not like playing Wembley Stadium, but for me that is the next thing."
Ed, nominated for another four BRIT Awards next month, is currently working on his fourth studio album. But those close to him say it could be his last. Sources claim singing a Bond theme is also top of Ed's bucket list before he retires.
