Ed Sheeran is keeping up with all the new changes in his friend Taylor Swift‘s life, just like Us.
During an interview with Andy Cohen before his SiriusXM’s Small Stage Series concert in New York City on Wednesday, September 24, Sheeran, 34, revealed he hasn’t gotten an early preview of Swift’s upcoming album, The Life of a Showgirl. When asked how he found out about Swift’s engagement to Travis Kelce, Sheeran gave a one-word answer.
“Instagram,” Sheeran replied, much to Cohen’s surprise.
“You didn’t even get a DM in advance?” Cohen, 57, asked, to which Sheeran said, “No.”
Sheeran also noted that he hasn’t received a save the date yet for the couple’s wedding.
Swift, 35, officially announced her 12th album during an appearance on Kelce’s “New Heights” podcast in August. Weeks later, the twosome nearly broke the internet by announcing their engagement after two years of dating.
“Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married 🧨,” read the caption of a joint Instagram post on August 26.

While save the date cards may not be in the mail yet, a source exclusively told Us Weekly this month that Swift and Kelce, 35, are “in the very early planning stages” for their big day.
“There is no venue or location set yet,” the insider added, noting that the wedding is “likely going to be early next year.”

According to the source, Swift is “having so much fun researching venues and locations” while in the “ideation phase” of wedding planning. The couple also want to ensure their celebration is “more intimate.”
“They don’t want to have a big, over-the-top wedding with a ton of people. It will be private with friends and family, not a ton of celebrities or random people,” the source told Us, describing Swift and Kelce as “down-to-earth and normal” despite their fame. “It will be meaningful, and they will be surrounded by people who are special to them.”
Plenty of fellow musicians round out Swift’s inner circle, including Sheeran, whom she first worked with on the song “Everything Has Changed” from her 2012 album, Red. The dynamic duo have multiple collaborations under their belts, and in summer 2024, Sheeran joined Swift on stage at Wembley Stadium in London during The Eras Tour.

Sheeran recently shared rare insight into his friendship with Swift on the “Call Her Daddy” podcast, revealing in April that the twosome typically see each other “four times a year.”
When they do cross paths, Sheeran said he and Swift have “proper sit down, six-hour catch-ups,” adding, “I think that’s a really nice way to do it.”
Sheeran also reminisced on when he opened for Swift on the Red Tour and the time the pair spent with each other in Nashville. “We used to fly to and from the gigs together and do all sorts of [stuff],” he recalled. “I literally spent almost every single day with her for about six months.”
