Sheeran: I love Jeremy . . . he’s just so caring!

- By Tim Lamden

HE’S one of music’s most famous redheads ... but it seems his hair is not the only red thing about him.

Ed Sheeran has revealed that he ‘loves everything Jeremy Corbyn is about’.

The singer-songwriter professed his approval of the Labour leader because he is ‘caring’.

Sheeran, 26, who received his MBE for services to music and charity from Prince Charles last week, said: ‘I love Corbyn.

‘I love everything Corbyn is about. And I feel people thought that, because I didn’t put myself behind him, I wasn’t a Corbyn supporter.

‘But if you knew me as a person, and listened to my music, you would be able to make a pretty educated guess that he would be the kind of person I really dig.

‘He cares about other people. He cares about all classes, races and generation­s, and that’s how I was brought up – we need more people that care about everyone.’

But despite his outpouring of support for the Labour leader, the star told The Sunday Times Culture magazine he would not back any particular party.

Earlier this year, Sheeran was named the wealthiest male musician under 30 in the Sunday Times Rich List, with a £52million fortune.
