Ed Sheeran Reveals Wife Cherry Will Curate Songs for His Posthumous Album: “It’s Actually in My Will”

Ed Sheeran has made a heartfelt revelation about the future of his music, even after he’s gone. Speaking in a recent interview, the 34-year-old superstar shared that he’s already planning a posthumous album, entrusting his wife, Cherry Seaborn, to decide which songs will make the final cut.

“It’s actually written into my will,” Sheeran explained. “I’ve been recording songs for years that I haven’t released. The idea is that Cherry will go through them and choose what feels right when I’m no longer here.”

The singer-songwriter, whose catalog already boasts timeless hits like Shape of You and Perfect, said the project is meant to ensure that his music lives on authentically, rather than being handled by strangers or rushed for commercial gain.

Sheeran emphasized that Cherry’s input is crucial because of the deep connection she has to his creative process:

“She knows which ones meant the most to me. It’s comforting to know she’ll protect the art, not just the business.”

Fans have taken to social media to praise the move, calling it a “touching legacy” and a testament to the couple’s bond. Others expressed curiosity about what hidden gems might lie in Sheeran’s personal vault songs that could offer an even more intimate glimpse into his life and artistry.

The Grammy winner has been steadily recording unreleased material since his early twenties, often writing tracks that don’t fit neatly into his studio albums. He hinted that the posthumous record, tentatively titled “Eject,” could feature a mix of stripped-back ballads, experimental pieces, and songs that were simply too personal to share while he was alive.

While Sheeran reassured fans he has no plans to slow down anytime soon, he admitted there’s comfort in knowing his legacy is secure:

“Music is who I am. If people can still connect with my songs long after I’m gone, then I’ll have done something right.”

With a new chapter of his life underway as a husband and father of two, Ed Sheeran’s decision shows just how much he values not only his craft but also the people closest to him  ensuring that when the final encore comes, the music will speak exactly as he intended.
