Taylor Swift’s engagement pushes Ed Sheeran to break silence on long-awaited reunion

Taylor Swift’s headline-grabbing engagement to Travis Kelce has finally prompted Ed Sheeran to share his honest reaction to the news.

For those unversed, the 35-year-old pop sensation and the 36-year-old NFL star announced their engagement on August 26, 2025.

According to the Daily Mail, the 34-year-old singer-songwriter discovered Swift’s engagement ot Kelce on Instagram, just like everyone else, since he doesn't use a cellphone

Now, in his interview with Access Hollywood, Sheeran said, “My way of viewing it is like, me and Taylor are mates, and I will see her.”

He added, “And I saw her a week after that happened. So I did that interview and then I saw her and you talk in person.”

“I kind of feel like being in touch with everyone — sort of — you lose actual human connection,” the Sapphire hitmaker explained.

“When I saw Taylor, we had like a four-hour catch-up and it's life stuff, rather than … you know what I mean,” he shared.

Elsewhere in the discussion, Sheeran reflected on his long-standing friendship with the 14-time Grammy winner.

“I'm not self-conscious about my relationship with her,” he noted, “We've been friends for very, very many years. We're super close and we see each other when we see each other.”

“When we see each other,” the Shape of You crooner continued, “we lock back into where we left off.”

It is worth noting that Taylor Swift and Ed Sheeran have been friends since 2012.
