Ed Sheeran’s Wife ‘Can Kill a song.’ It’s Why He’s Careful About Sharing Music with Her

SHEFFIELD, ENGLAND, JUL 11 – Ed Sheeran values his wife Cherry Seaborn's honest feedback and waits for her positive mood to share new songs, trusting her judgement over others in his family.

  • Ed Sheeran plans to release his album Play on September 12 and carefully shares new songs only when his wife Cherry Seaborn is in a good mood.
  • Sheeran uses his family, especially Cherry, as a sounding board to sift through many songs he writes, relying on her feedback for major career decisions.
  • Cherry’s input helped shape hits such as the 2021 single Bad Habits, and she once persuaded Sheeran not to construct a bowling alley on their property.
  • Sheeran said on Kylie Kelce's podcast, “100 percent,” he waits for the right moment to play her new songs, adding, “That song’s dead,” if she disapproves.
  • This careful process highlights Cherry as Sheeran’s biggest grounding force and indicates that his family’s input shapes his music and creative choices.
