“My lifestyle changed,” he explained. “I realised I needed to start exercising, not necessarily to be slim but have a healthy heart. By exercising and not having such a wild lifestyle, you end up being a healthy human being.”

“Having my shirt off in the video wasn’t my idea though,” he added. “It was the director’s and it kind of happened very last minute. I wasn’t really comfortable with it but he lit it in such a way that it ended up looking quite cool.”

Meanwhile, Sheeran has announced that he will be playing a huge show in London right before Glastonbury 2017. Fans are now speculating that he could be preparing to make a secret appearance at the festival.

It has also been confirmed that Ed Sheeran will make a guest appearance during season seven of Game Of Thrones.
