Does Ed Sheeran have personal gravesite in backyard? Read to know

Ed Sheeran recently disclosed owning a gravesite in his backyard, not as a crypt, but a simple spot. Speaking with GQ, he clarified that this area also serves as a chapel where friends have tied the knot. Additionally, it's intended for those close to him, who choose cremation.

"It's a hole dug in the ground with a stone cover. When my time comes, I'll be laid to rest there," he stated. He emphasized that this decision was prompted by witnessing friends pass away without wills, leaving their loved ones unsure of what to do.

While his grave plans are for the future, Sheeran has recently released a new album titled "Autumn Variations" on his Gingerbread Man Records label on September 29. He explained that this album was inspired by the various life changes he and his friends experienced during the previous autumn.


"After a hot summer, everything either calmed down, settled, fell apart, reached a climax, or fell apart," he said. The album is a reflection of his own experiences and those of his friends. It encompasses friendship, heartbreak, love, depression, loneliness and confusion.
