Ed Sheeran’s dad, John, made a quick appearance in the singer’s latest music video. The star recently released Azizam, which is Farsi for ‘my beloved’, and made sure to invite his dad to set to film the chaotic film, which sees him showing up as a wedding-guest at a fun-filled ceremony.

It comes as Ed surprised fans over the weekend when he appeared at a tiny pub to put on a special performance of his new release, Old Phone.
The star put on an impromptu gig at the Thomas Wolsey pub in Ipswich on Sunday, and in recognition of the hitmaker’s new release, the beloved pub has been unofficially renamed The Old Phone for two weeks, BBC News reported.
The Suffolk native serenaded a bustling crowd inside the local pub, and a clip of the performance was shared by Ed Sheeran HQ on X. The video was captioned: “Ed brought the Old Phone Pub home. Thank you Ipswich for singing along with us!”
Fans shared their emotional experiences. One exclaimed: “I cried along to this earlier.” Another said: “It’s not just a pub anymore – it’s a time machine with strings. Thank you for turning small places into big memories, Ed.”
A third expressed their appreciation for the communal singing: “Sounds like an amazing night with Ed! I always love those crowd sing-alongs too – they bring such great energy.”
Other comments included enthusiastic praises like: “It was so good”, “Love this”, and: “Love to see so many fans there.”
The musician announced on Friday (May 2) plans for three performances, including at Ipswich Town FC’s stadium, an arena close to his heart.
Later that same day day, Ed hinted at a visit to the town by sending out a message to fans through his mailing list, as reported by the Ipswich Star.
The message read: “From Ipswich, MA to Ipswich, UK… we’re bringing The Old Phone pub home this weekend.” Fans were encouraged to respond to the message with a beer emoji for a chance to get invited.
