Ed Sheeran’s docuseries is in four 30 minute parts on the Disney+ channel.
I watched the first part. It was titled “Love” and was mainly about how Ed met and married his wife Cherry, their love story and how devoted Ed is to her. They touch on Jamal’s death and her cancer diagnosis at the end.
About his career, he talks about how he just played every gig he could, sometimes 3 a night, and wrote songs, sometimes 7 a day. Then the ‘A Team’ song hit that changed the trajectory of his career.
