Last year Ed said that he'd finally had the chance to fall in love after taking a break from music.
"This has been the first time I've ever actually had the time to fall in love properly," he told Zane Lowe on Beats 1.
"'I've always got into relationships very passionately - I'm a redhead and also Irish."
He also explained he wanted to start a family.
"I'm ready, let's go - tour bus babies, little fat, chubby babies that just walk around," he said.
Ed was forced to cancel some of his tour dates at the end of last year after a bike accident.
His single Shape of You was 2017's biggest selling single, according to Official Charts data.
He is nominated at next month's Brit awards for album of the year, British single, British video and British male.
