Video: Ed Sheeran fan was too ill to make his gig, so Ed popped into the hospital to see her

Once again, he's just incredibly sound

Once again, he’s just incredibly sound

It’s getting to the point where Ed Sheeran has performed more incredibly kind gestures than he has written beloved songs and we’re not complaining about this at all.

The singer was gigging in New Zealand over the weekend and one of his biggest fans, a girl named Jess Wright, was too ill to attend.

Jess bought tickets to his concert but was sadly diagnosed with leukaemia just two weeks later.

The concert would have perfectly aligned with Jess’ 20th birthday celebrations but this sad news brought out the best qualities in her mates.

Jess’ friends rallied around her and organised a social media campaign to get the singer to visit her in hospital, what happens next is just wonderful.

Even if you don’t like Ed Sheeran’s music, it’s impossible to dislike the man. He seems incredibly sound.
