she shared: "I got diagnosed with cancer at the start of the year which was a massive sh*tter, It made me massively reflect on our mortality. I would never agree to do anything like this (documentary), but it made me think, 'Oh, if I died, what's people's perception of me? What do you leave behind?'"
Seaborn adds, "For Ed, the whole point is he wants to say to people, 'I'm not just this music machine. I'm not just this robot that tries to get No. 1. I'm a father, I'm a son, I'm a friend.' It wasn't until this year when I was like, 'I might die.'"
"It was horrible," the Shape of You singer said, "I kept saying to you that it was just a lump and not to worry, I remember rehearsing and getting a call from Cherry. The doctor was basically like, 'This is bad.'"
The couple then were able to have their baby as they found out that Seaborn's diagnosis is not as severe as they were initially told.
Ed Sheeran: The Sum of It All is now streaming on Disney+.
