♬ As It Was – PREP
A fan recently brought up an old allegation of Ellie Goulding cheating on Ed. Ellie shared the video of herself dancing to As It Was by Harry Styles, a former One Direction member, and captioned it:
Many falsely assumed that Ellie Goulding and Ed Sheeran were in a relationship when the singers were spotted holding hands in 2013. The duo sat in the audience at that year’s MTV Video Music Awards.
Shortly after that, Ellie addressed the dating rumors that sprung up publicly. “I love that holding hands with my friends means we’re an item,” she wrote on Twitter.
On the other hand, Ed Sheeran countered her stand claiming that they dated briefly. He said he didn’t believe in holding hands with friends in an interview with Washington radio station Click 98.9.
Ellie Goulding Reacts To Allegations Of Her Cheating On Ed
The rumors of Ellie Goulding cheating on Ed started in August of the same year. Fans reportedly saw the Love Me Like You Do singer with Niall Horan at the V Festival, where a lot of PDA went on.
This prompted some to think that her relationship with Ed didn’t work out because of the One Direction band member. Coincidentally, Ed Sheeran released the song Don’t, which included lyrics about an unnamed female cheating on him, in 2014. Many then believed it could have been about Ellie and her alleged romance with Niall.
However, the Lights singer responded to the rumors when she interviewed with Elle U.K.
Ellie Goulding and Ed Sheeran differed in their accounts of whether they dated, but it is clear that Ellie never cheated on Ed. It is good that the rumor has finally been addressed. Hopefully, this will finally end the suppositions and accusations.
