Singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran has recently opened up about his struggles with an eating disorder, which he developed after comparing himself to pop stars like Justin Bieber and Shawn Mendes. The 32-year-old Grammy winner said that he began feeling self-conscious about his image after collaborating with these artists, who he described as having “fantastic figures”. He admitted to feeling “mad uncomfortable” and resorted to binge-eating until he vomited.
Ed confessed that he is a “binge-everything” person and has struggled with an addictive personality. In the past, he has also struggled with binge-drinking and junk food, but now he is focusing on becoming a “binge exerciser” and a “binge dad”. Ed likened his battle to Elton John’s, who also suffered from bulimia and wrote about it in his autobiography.
