The parents of eight-year-old Teigan Bayliss, from Stanningfield, have thanked the singer for donating £500 of memorabilia for them to auction off for their charity - TeiganSmile.
But that’s not the only surprise Framlingham’s Ed had in store. He also sent Teigan, who has Cerebral Palsy, a signed album and T-shirt.
Sheeran, who has gained a reputation for popping up at weddings and events as a surprise, also hinted he would like to meet Teigan one day soon.
Teigan and her younger sister Tracey are both massive Ed Sheeran fans and love his chart-topping single Perfect.
