Ed Sheeran has finally confirmed what we all suspected – hit single Don’t IS about Niall Horan getting frisky with his once-girlfriend Ellie Goulding behind Ed’s back.

But on a brighter note, the flame-haired singing sensation is totally over all of the anger he felt towards the One Direction heartthrob back then.

Ed released savage single Don’t in April this year amid speculation it was an autobiographical offering documenting a messy break-up with a famous ex.

With lyrics such as ‘I never saw him as a threat, ’Til you disappeared with him to have ѕєχ’, and ‘you were looking for a lover to BURN,’ it was soon rumoured to be about Ellie and Ed.

But when asked if he’d forgiven the Irish jigger, Ed admitted: ‘I guess. I got over the anger the moment I wrote the song.’

Ed, 23, revealed he’s actually happy he managed to get the No.1 track out of the whole situation, adding: ‘That’s the end of it. I’m grateful I could get a song out of it, to be honest.’

But does he remember what happened every time he performs Don’t to a crowd? Luckily not.

‘I don’t feel it’s about anyone any more, I’m not attached to that. The moment you attach someone to a song it becomes more difficult to sing every night,’ Ed added.

Ed made it crystal clear he’s not holding a grudge towards Niall after the pair were pictured partying together in Las Vegas earlier this month.

Don’t lyrics:

Ah lahmlahlah
Ah lahmlahlah

I met this girl late last year
She said, “Don’t you worry if I disappear.”
I told her I’m not really looking for another mistake
I called an old friend thinking that the trouble would wait
But then I jump right in
A week later returned
I reckon she was only looking for a lover to burn
But I gave her my time for two or three nights


Then I put it on pause ’til the moment was right
I went away for months until our paths crossed again
She told me, “I was never looking for a friend.”
Maybe you could swing by my room around 10:00
Baby, bring a lemon and a bottle of gin
We’ll be in between the sheets ’til the late AM
Baby, if you wanted me then you should’ve just said
She’s singing
Ah lahmlahlah

[Chorus:]
Don’t fuck with my love
That heart is so cold
All over my home
I don’t wanna know that babe
Ah lahmlahlah
Don’t fuck with my love
I told her she knows
Take aim and reload
I don’t wanna know that babe
Ah lahmlahlah

For a couple weeks I
Only wanna see her
We drink away the days with a take-away pizza
Before a text message was the only way to reach her
Now she’s staying at my place and loves the way I treat her
Singing out Aretha

All over the track like a feature
And never wants to sleep, I guess that I don’t want to either
But me and her we make money the same way
Four cities, two planes the same day
And those shows have never been what it’s about
But maybe we’ll go together and just figure it out
I’d rather put on a film with you and sit on the couch
But we should get on a plane
Or we’ll be missing it now
Wish I’d have written it down
The way that things played out
When she was kissing him
How? I was confused about
She should figure it out while I’m sat here singing
Ah lahmlahlah

[Chorus:]
Don’t fuck with my love
That heart is so cold
All over my home
I don’t wanna know that babe
Ah lahmlahlah
Don’t fuck with my love
I told her she knows
Take aim and reload
I don’t wanna know that babe
Ah lahmlahlah

[Knock knock knock] on my hotel door

I don’t even know if she knows what for
She was crying on my shoulder
I already told ya
Trust and respect is what we do this for
I never intended to be next
But you didn’t need to take him to bed that’s all
And I never saw him as a threat
Until you disappeared with him to have ѕєχ of course
It’s not like we were both on tour
We were staying on the same fucking hotel floor
And I wasn’t looking for a promise or commitment
But it was never just fun and I thought you were different
This is not the way you realize what you wanted
It’s a bit too much, too late if I’m honest
All this time God knows I’m singing
Ah lahmlahlah

[Chorus 2x:]
Don’t fuck with my love
That heart is so cold
All over my home
I don’t wanna know that babe
Ah lahmlahlah
Don’t fuck with my love
I told her she knows
Take aim and reload
I don’t wanna know that babe
Ah lahmlahlah
