Then, Martin highlighted that Sheeran is like their more successful brother and added that he loves him very much. It can be said that there can’t be any rivalry between these two close friends.
Martin explained the situation saying:
“I don’t like him. He doesn’t like me. (Laughing) It’s just snarling. That’s the reason we’re not playing on the same day people don’t want to fight. Eddie is like our little more successful brother. I love them to bits so I’ve got nothing else to say.”
