One of the biggest music artists in the world- Ed Sheeran recently revealed that he was not going to play music anymore as he wanted to focus on fatherhood but didn`t quit as "music is entirely me as a person". People Magazine reported that Ed recently appeared in an interview with SiriusXM radio where he revealed that he considered leaving his career behind to focus on being a dad to his 11-month-old daughter Lyra, but decided it was for the best for him and his family that he "continues making music". "There was a long period of time where I just didn`t really know. Everything was directionless," Ed said.
"I had finished the Divide tour and Divide sold definitely like over 22 million copies, which is like more copies than I`ve ever sold with an album. The tour was heavily publicized, it was the biggest tour of all time and sold in like 19 seconds, and I remember standing on the Ipswich stage finishing and then getting off stage and just being like, I`m 28. And like, I don`t know what to do now -- I`ve chased and chased and chased and chased and got to this thing," the 30-year-old singer added.
