In an interview for Love Music Hate Racism, the 28-year-old 'Shape Of You' singer said: 'Well yeah because I was ginger so I was instantly ripped into from the day I started school."
"Ginger, had a stutter, wore huge glasses, just a bit odd, but then as I got older I kind of loved it."
He heartbreakingly revealed the difficult time he had 'I hated primary school with a passion. I would cry every single day."
Thankfully, Ed said he came into his own at secondary school when he discovered music.
He continued on to say: "Then I got to high school and started playing guitar, I joined a band and music is just one of these things which gives you confidence and you're suddenly like 'wow I can actually do something well'".
Ed famously married his childhood sweetheart, Cherry Seaborn, in a top secret ceremony, with the singer referring to her as his 'wife' in January 2019.
