Ed Sheeran Sings of Marital Strife on 'Play'

Ed Sheeran appears to be candidly addressing marital challenges in the deluxe edition of his album 'Play.' The updated version includes fourteen previously unreleased tracks, many of which delve into the complexities of his seven-year marriage to Cherry Seaborn.

The song 'Problems' specifically touches upon the strain his lengthy Mathematics World Tour placed on their family life, with lyrics such as, 'We got problems, and we don't know how to solve them.' Another track, 'War Game,' further explores this theme, noting the difficulty of maintaining connection amidst constant change.

Additionally, Sheeran reflects on fatherhood in the song 'Regrets,' expressing sorrow over the time missed with his daughters, Lyra and Jupiter. The deluxe album, released recently, offers a more personal glimpse into Sheeran's life beyond his global music success, including his journey of putting the album together.
