British superstar Ed Sheeran, who recently got involved in a bike accident and had to cancel some of his shows in Asia as a result of injury, has unveiled to the public during The Jonathan Ross Show that the outcome could have been far worse if he didn’t postpone those shows.

He explained that he was attempting to go down a steep hill and didn’t realise how badly he got hurt. “I broke my wrist, my elbow and my rib.”

“When it happened, I got up and was like, ‘That hurt’ and then cycled to the pub. Went home, went to sleep and then woke up at 5 o’clock in the morning in a lot of pain. And then went to the hospital.”

“I do a one-man show, so me not having my arms is half of the show,” he added. “I tried to say ‘I’ll carry on doing the shows,’ but they said if I put any more stress on it, I might not be able to play again.”

The 26-year-old singer also shockingly revealed that he struggled with substance abuse during the time he was trying to adjust to fame, saying, “All the pitfalls that people read about, I just found myself slipping into all of them … mostly substance abuse.”

As to how he overcome it, he said his friends intervened to help him, “It just started gradually happening and then some people took me to one side and were like, ‘Calm yourself down’”

“It’s all fun to begin with, it all starts off as a party and then you’re doing it on your own and it’s not, so that was a wake-up call.”

We hope your arm injury gets better soon Ed. We’re still counting on you to make it to Kuala Lumpur on November 14! 🙁
