Icelandic Newspaper Mistakenly Reports Ed Sheeran’s Death

A newspaper in Iceland made a huge mistake in their obituary section making it appear as though Ed Sheeran had died. The “Morgunbladid” newspaper ran one of Ed’s picture alongside an obituary for an 82-year-old mechanic and fans couldn’t help but notice the error.

“This obituary appeared in today’s @morgunbladid (Icelandic newspaper) I think someone might be getting fired today. #rip,” one person wrote, while another added, “Hate to break it to u but Ed Sheeran is dead. It also turns out he is a 82 year old Icelandic man called Svavar. Ed Sheeran was apparently only his stage name."
