Ed Sheeran Speaks Out After Fans Slam Him for Not Defending Taylor Swift Amid Scooter Braun Feud

Ed Sheeran has responded after some Taylor Swift fans took to Instagram to criticize him for not coming out in support of his good friend during her feud with manager Scooter Braun over her master recordings.

While some of Swift’s friends have come out in public support of her — including Brendon Urie, Halsey and Cara Delevingne — Sheeran remained silent until Tuesday, when he replied to a fan who commented on his Instagram. The fan defended him from the negative comments he was receiving in regards to Swift.

The fan commented, “Why don’t you leave him in peace with that Taylor thing? Just because he didn’t post anything it doesn’t mean he is not supporting her, maybe he’s talking with her right now, who knows. You aren’t allowed to doubt their friendship just because he didn’t say anything on the social, cause they’re not real life. Maybe he’s the one who has supported her the most, because they’re best friends and he didn’t waste time writing on Instagram what he could have said directly to her.”

Sheeran replied, writing, “I have been speaking directly to her, like I always do.”- Source
