He’s been romantically linked to Taylor Swift, Ellie Goulding and Athina Andrelos.
But now the Ed Sheeran is alleged to be dating ex-Pussy Cat Doll Nicole Scherzinger.
Nicole is said to have reached out Ed, citing his music as having helped her overcome her previous heartbreak. Ed then invited Nicole as one of his special backstage guests when he performed a record-breaking three consecutive shows at Wembley Stadium. And Nicole has dedicated performances to him.
Last night Ed’s pal said: “As far as he’s concerned they were in the early stages of dating and he’s been open about it with close friends and colleagues. It may not develop beyond those dates but they’re definitely tight.”
A friend of Nicole’s added: “They’re extremely close. Nicole says he is the male version of her.”
Meanwhile, Lewis Hamilton was seeking some comfort of his own in the form of bikini clad women. Partying with Rihanna at the annual Kadooment Day event in Barbados on Monday. And then with a mystery brunette on a boat off the Island coast.
