Ed believes in little things of every day which give him immense pleasure. He added:

“People around here treat me pretty normally, but in London it’s different.
“I get anxiety every day. It creeps up on you. I’ve been working on it for eight years and I closed off from reality.
“Whether it’s getting rid of your phone or only looking at emails twice a day or cutting down my friendship group to the bare minimum just so I can trust everyone.”

He continued:

“It makes me feel like I’m not human.”
“If you want to come up to me and have a conversation with me, even if we’ve never met, just come up. What instantly cuts me off is that you’re having a moment with them which is so genuine and so nice… and then at the end, they ask for a picture.”
“It puts you down to Earth and you’re just 15 Likes on Instagram. That’s all you are.”

Ed has 30.6 million followers on his Instagram.

He concluded:

“I don’t mean to be complain-y because I have a very cool life and job — but if I can avoid it, I will.”
