“No,” Sheeran replied. “I’m not married.”
The musician explained that the ring was yet another way for him to show his devotion to his bride-to-be.
“I never saw why men didn’t wear engagement rings,” he said. “It’s the same commitment either way. Cherry made it for me herself out of silver clay. I really like it. I haven’t told anyone that, either.”
In another interview with Sky News, Sheeran further discussed his impending marriage.
“It’s an engagement ring, because I feel like…I don’t know,” he said of the silver band. “I feel like it’s good to both do things.”
