Ed Sheeran, a globally renowned musician today, has disclosed his past struggles with homelessness before achieving success in the music industry.

In his latest book titled ‘A Visual Journey’, Sheeran candidly reveals the hardships he faced prior to his breakthrough.

In an excerpt from the book published by the Daily Mail, Sheeran recounts how he resorted to sleeping rough outside Buckingham Palace on several occasions.

Reflecting on those challenging times, Sheeran shares, “There was an arch outside Buckingham Palace that has a heating duct and I spent a couple of nights there…

I didn’t have anywhere to live for much of 2008, 2009, and 2010, but somehow I managed to make it work.”

Sheeran elaborates on enduring years without a stable residence, frequently relying on the generosity of acquaintances for temporary shelter, whether it be beds, couches, or floors.
