Ed Sheeran Gives Inspiring Speech on Overcoming His Stutter

Ed Sheeran meets up with Emily Blunt on the red carpet at the 2015 American Institute for Stuttering Freeing Voices Changing Lives Gala on Monday (June 8) in New York City.

The 24-year-old singer gave an inspiring speech at the event about how he overcame a stutter as a kid.

“I was a very, very weird child. I had a port-wine stain birthmark on my face that I got lasered off when I was very young; one day, they forgot to put the anesthetic on, and ever since then, I had a stutter,” Ed said (via The Hollywood Reporter). “I also had very big, blue NHS glasses — NHS is the National Health Service, one day I hope you’ll have the same! And I lacked an eardrum on one side of my ear, so stuttering was actually the least of my problems!”
