Ed Sheeran has openly discussed the issues he faces and the steps he has taken to ensure the safety of Cherry Seaborn and their two young daughters.
Ed Sheeran has shared the terrifying threat crazed fans made towards his daughter after they broke into his home. The Shape of You singer, 34, shares daughters Lyra, four, and Jupiter, three, with wife Cherry Seaborn.
And he acknowledged to Australia’s 60 Minutes on Sunday night how far he must travel to ensure the safety of his family. The pop star claimed that because of threats he had previously received, extra security measures were required.
Ed told the audience that frightening fan encounters are the things that “people don’t really even take into account” when they spoke to the channel. He compared it to “s**t like kidnapping threats and that”
We’ve had items left on my car that were attempted break-ins. More sinister than just fans arriving and requesting selfies, really?
He continued, saying he now comprehends and has to accept that his family will always need some form of protection. We have a level of security that, according to Ed, is unlikely to change once I pass away. Our current existence is just that.
And he explained how protective his protective ways have led to his refusal to allow photos of his young children, adding that the attempt has sparked “real arguments” among those who try.
“I’m fine with taking pictures,” he said. “But I just think it’s weird with a four-year-old and a three-year-old.”
As he revealed the negatives of his enormous fame, Ed candidly admitted he wished his family could lead a more “normal” life. You must accept both the good and the bad to be in the public sphere. However, I believe my children would definitely benefit from a more normal lifestyle.
The update comes just a month after he had revealed to Louis Theroux how difficult it was to spend time with his kids in public. He said on an episode of the journalist’s podcast that he has had to install 24 hour security at his home because of “weird things which have happened”.
On the episode of the Louis Theroux podcast, he said, “I was actually having a conversation with my wife about this because I believe there is a different kind of normal that our business is.”
“For instance, I have 24-hour security at my house, I have security with my kids, I have security with my wife, and I have security with my wife because, like, over the years, there have been a few strange things that have happened.”
Ed continued, “Just, you know, there are a lot of dangerous people out there,” when Louis expressed shock at the admission. We’ve had break-ins and s***, just like that, you know…
I’ve never seen that as normal (having security), but it’s completely normal in my industry. Like many others I know, security and similar things are present.
“So I don’t know, that’s kind of like an underlying thing that no one ever really talks about, but I suppose that’s a part of being in the public eye.”
