Ed Sheeran spills the beans on not having a phone

Ed Sheeran tried his best to stay away from phones since a decade!

During a candid appearance at Jake Shane’s podcast Therapuss, the British pop singer revealed the reasons behind not having a phone. 

"I haven’t had a phone since 2015, I got rid of it in 2015… I found I had the same number from like age 15 and I got famous and I had 10,000 contacts in my phone. I just was losing real-life interaction so I got rid of it.” he said.

The Perfect crooner added, "I got an iPad, I moved everything onto email which I reply to once a week. I have an hour of my time on a Thursday or a Friday, [I] sit down usually in the car.

He continued, “I blast all the emails, catch up, do all of the talking to whoever and then that’s it. I go for dinner with my wife and she will go to the toilet at a restaurant, and she can sometimes take a while and usually 10 years ago I would take out my phone, flip through Instagram but when you’re just sitting doing nothing, that’s when I’ll think of a lyric or a melody."

"You’ll have an idea about where to go next with your career," he concluded.

Ed Sheeran’s revelation came soon after the singer-songwriter was found not liable in a copyright infringement case.
