Ed Sheeran and Sir Elton John shared the directors’ box at Vicarage Road to witness Ipswich’s 2-1 victory over Watford.
Sheeran, elated by the win, playfully mentioned that Sir Elton “didn’t like it” during an interview with manager Kieran McKenna. Ipswich’s triumph marked their fourth consecutive win, propelling them to the top of the Championship table, while Watford holds the 11th position.
McKenna, acknowledging the legendary duo’s presence, quipped, “Ah, two legends, quality.”
Sheeran, who sponsors Ipswich’s kits, jokingly noted that his name should be on the stands, just like Sir Elton’s, who received the honor in 2014. Sheeran shared a festive jumper exchange with McKenna, capturing the moment on Instagram.
“Looks like you’ve got some time ahead,” remarked McKenna.
In 2021, the musical powerhouses joined forces to drop the holiday single “Merry Christmas.”
Sharing the festive spirit, Sheeran took to Instagram, showcasing a video of their Christmas jumper exchange.
Adding to the excitement, Sheeran hinted at his presence at Portman Road for the upcoming local derby against Norwich City on Saturday, leaving fans curious about potential photo ops or a seat beside Delia Smith.
