Ellie Goulding’s lawyers have sent letters to Ed Sheeran’s camp threatening legal action if publications continued to perpetuate rumours about Ellie.
Ellie is said to be the subject of "Don’t", in which Ed sings about a cheating girlfriend.
A source says, "Ed had never denied that Ellie was an inspiration for his work, so this seems a strange response after such a long time. Online there are hundreds of fan and media sites that have gone much further in their descriptions of Ellie.
Well who cares Ellie. Ed is an artist. The song slays and you're a loosey goosey. Nothing wrong with that but don't be upset when a guy gets hurt and makes art out of it.
First she isn't an ex because it wasn't a relationship.
Secondly, he never confirmed not denied that the song was about her and has absolutely no control over what people can and can not start rumors over and on top of that all she's doing now is confirming that she is the subject of the song which will make the situation even worse. Very smart move...
hell I live for these story telling in songs. That's why In The Lonely Hour is a ultimate classic.
