Sheeran also performed 'Don't' for the first time live, amidst furious tabloid speculation as to the subject of the song. The song includes the lyrics: "I never saw him as a threat, 'til you disappeared with him to have sex."
In a recent interview, Sheeran said: "The story in 'Don't' is 100% true. I could have gotten nastier - there was more shit that I didn't put in. I was seeing someone for a bit, and then they ended up physically involved with one of my friends in the same hotel that we were staying in, while I was downstairs."
