🚨 Ed Sheeran’s HEARTBREAKING Update on Wife Cherry’s Cancer Battle During Pregnancy: ‘I Feared I’d Lose Her’

In an emotional podcast reveal, Ed Sheeran opened up about the darkest moments of his life, revealing the heartbreaking battle his wife, Cherry Seaborn, faced after discovering a tumour while pregnant with their second child, Jupiter. The singer, 35, confessed that the news hit him like a wrecking ball, leaving him utterly devastated.

“The Worst Week of My Life”
Appearing on the Friends Keep Secrets podcast, Ed recounted the tragic events that unfolded in February 2022. Cherry’s diagnosis came at a time when Ed was already grappling with intense grief after the sudden death of his close friend, music mogul Jamal Edwards, at just 31. The timing couldn’t have been worse: not only was Ed facing a painful personal loss, but he was also thrust into the stressful limelight of a high-profile court case that threatened his career. “That was probably one of the worst days of my life,” Ed admitted, his voice filled with raw emotion.

Cherry’s Courageous Fight
Despite the overwhelming weight of these events, Ed found solace in the fact that Cherry bravely fought through the battle, opting for surgery to remove the tumour after giving birth. “She’s fine now,” Ed shared, visibly relieved, “Thank God, touch wood, totally fine. But it was f**king scary.”

The couple’s journey through this tumultuous time also saw Cherry face the difficult decision of delaying the surgery until after she had delivered their baby. The emotional rollercoaster only intensified as Ed grappled with the loss of his best friend, Jamal, who passed away from a heart attack, and the high-stakes court case regarding his hit song Shape of You.

A Transformative Period for Ed
Ed described how the combination of personal tragedies and the intense pressure of the courtroom left him questioning everything. “I’d built it up in my mind, and then, when you’re in the courtroom, it didn’t really matter. When real life events hit you so hard, nothing else seems as important,” he explained.
