Ed Sheeran Says Taylor Swift Feels Like Family, Calls Their Work 'Creatively Intertwined'

In a new podcast interview, Sheeran described a sibling-like creative kinship that reconnects instantly.

Overview

  • He told The Hollywood Reporter's Awards Chatter podcast that he and Swift 'lock back in' whenever they meet, describing the dynamic as similar to siblings.
  • He agreed with Swift’s earlier comparison of their partnership to Carole King and James Taylor, emphasizing a long-running artistic rapport.
  • Sheeran recounted first connecting through Swift’s team after a Snow Patrol show in Nashville, which led to writing together and later touring on her Red era.
  • The pair’s collaborations include Everything Has Changed, The Joker and the Queen, and Red’s vault track Run, reflecting years of shared work.
  • A separate tabloid report alleged tension over late-2025 album timing, but that claim relies on an unnamed source and is not corroborated by the artists’ comments or other outlets.
