Sheeran has been dating his high school sweetheart for a couple of years, and that’s also a factor according to this anonymous source.
“When or if he gets married he wants to put his wife and kids first and not his career. If that means going AWOL for years then so be it,” the insider explained. “The big test is if the relationship survives this album and the tour… When they got together Ed was on his year off but every day in his schedule for the next year is practically full.”

But, uh, why would he straight-up quit just because he has other things going on in life? Music isn’t all-or-nothing. He could totally just dial it back. So our money’s on this being just an internet rumor and there being new Ed Sheeran music in our lives for a long time to come.
