Ed Sheeran Says He’s Found ‘Perfect Balance’ Between Family and Touring

He says his career now fits around keeping his wife with their daughters by his side on the road.

Overview

  • In a People exclusive clip for Mythical Kitchen’s Last Meals airing Thursday, Oct. 9, Sheeran says his family will join his next tour.
  • He describes touring and songwriting as joys rather than obligations at this stage of his career.
  • Sheeran says he can set his own cadence for shows, including choosing to play only Saturdays or a Friday–Sunday run.
  • He notes his daughters, Lyra, 5, and Jupiter, 3, have been on tour with him since the start of the Mathematics run and that life works best when they are together.
  • He adds that a September compilation of Mathematics hits helps introduce his catalog to his children, who especially gravitate to the song Sapphire, recorded while they were in India.
