Ed Sheeran is currently at the center of a massive cultural controversy that could even lead to the cancellation of the rest of his Loop Tour shows. He has been caught up in a hate train after his supporting act, rapper Macklemore made pro-Palestinian remarks on stage. He was subsequently dropped from the tour lineup by billionaire Gillette Stadium owner Robert Kraft. After Macklemore was booted, all of Ed Sheeran’s support acts, including Finneas, announced they would quit.
Amid the controversy and chaos, Ed said he felt like his family “abandoned” him during his crisis. His remark didn’t sit right with his cousin, Jethro Sheeran, who launched a scathing attack on the singer, calling him a bad artist and an even worse human being.
Ed Sheeran’s cousin, Jethro Sheeran slammed him, saying he is ‘ashamed’ of the singer
Ed Sheeran teared up in his latest Philadelphia concert, where he addressed the aftereffects of Macklemore’s pro-Palestinian comment controversy on The Shape of You singer and his ongoing Loop Tour. He emotionally said that everyone around him asked him to “cancel” the rest of his shows. He shared that in such a dire situation, he realized who his real well-wishers were, and it wasn’t his family. Ed stated that, “I’m feeling all of my friends and family and people I know abandon me.”
After Ed Sheeran’s remark made headlines, his cousin, Jethro Sheeran launched a scathing attack against him. Taking to Facebook, Jethro, who is also a musician, shared a post mentioning that he was “ashamed” of Ed. Jethro alleged that Ed was “not a good person” and that his latest controversy will expose his true colors to the world. Ed Sheeran’s cousin added that the Photograph singer was not a good artist and his music wasn’t up to his taste. Jethro stated:
“Finally it’s all coming out! I’m ashamed of my cousin Ed and what he’s done. Finally the world and all his fans see through him. He’s not a good person, I don’t like his music so I can’t say he’s even a good artist.”
Ed Sheeran’s 44-year-old cousin further claimed that his family didn’t fail to support him; instead, he had failed to stand by his own people in their time of need. Jethro called Ed a “coward” for allegedly abandoning Macklemore and booting him off the shows amid his controversy. Calling Ed a “bad human” for his actions, Jethro Sheeran stated:
“Ed Sheeran! He is shady, and he’s dropped Macklemore himself I believe 100 percent he’s a coward. In my opinion he’s a bad human. Just my opinion from my experiences.”
