The singer, 32, has been a global superstar for more than ten years but has confessed he only matured after experiencing grief first-hand
Music entrepreneur Jamal, 31, died from a heart attack in February 2022 after taking cocaine and drinking alcohol.He added: “The one thing I’ve realised is the moment death happens, a real close, close death, is when you become an adult.Sheeran said he felt lucky he did not suffer grief until his 30s, unlike schoolmates forced into adulthood at 13 when their dads died.
Sheeran said after Jamal’s death he was able to speak with his mum Imogen and pals about their losses. He added: “I am very fortunate that I lived a large part of my life without experiencing what it’s like. And when it happens, I had friends that had closed up about their parents dying.“I found my mum opening up to me about losses in her life that she’s never spoken to me about.”
He said: “Throughout sadness with kids, they’re having a great time. But also it’s just their world. You know, she’s sad, she’s sad, she’s happy, she’s happy, but you have to come along for the ride.”
