Ed Sheeran, the celebrated musician known for his hits like “Perfect,” has divulged a rather peculiar aspect of his property.
The Grammy-winning artist revealed an Sh. 800 Million private chapel in his garden, complete with a prepared cemetery where he intends to be laid to rest.
Sheeran has shared that this chapel also serves as a place for him to grieve and commemorate his departed loved ones.
Why did Ed Sheeran dig his own grave?
He explained that he wants his daughters, Lyra Antarctica and Jupiter, “People think it’s really weird and really morbid, but I’ve had friends die without wills, and no one knows what to do,” he added.

This unconventional setup has garnered its fair share of curiosity and bewilderment.
The singer’s decision to create such a unique final resting place was influenced by personal experiences.
Sheeran recounted instances where friends passed away without leaving clear wills, leaving their loved ones perplexed about what to do next.
In his own way, he’s taken proactive measures to ensure that his own affairs are well in order.
In a rather unrelated but intriguing tidbit, Ed Sheeran recently made headlines for awarding himself a substantial pay raise.
With his music empire raking in a staggering Sh.16 Billion in turnover since 2019, the 32-year-old artist decided to grant himself a pay increase of Sh. 1.8 Billion.
This decision came as a result of the ongoing growth of his music career, which shows no signs of slowing down.
It appears that Ed Sheeran is not only planning for a successful musical future but also preparing for the afterlife in his own unique and somewhat eccentric way.
His unconventional chapel and burial site may raise eyebrows, but they reflect his desire to ensure that his legacy is well-preserved and that his daughters, Lyra and Jupiter, have a place to remember their father when the time comes.
