ED Sheeran has proved just how down to earth he really is - as he wants his stag do in a Wetherspoons pub.

Newly-engaged Ed, 27, is worth an estimated £37million yet is such a fan of the cheap and cheerful chain that he would love to celebrate his upcoming nuptials in one with his mates.

Speaking backstage at Wednesday night's Brit Awards, Ed - who confirmed his engagement to long-term girlfriend Cherry Seaborn last month - told KISS FM that he would like "a few" stag dos.

Ruling out Las Vegas for one, he explained: "I'll do a nice one with my dad and her dad...

"I just want to go up north, rent one of those Wetherspoons hotels and f***ing have it, all you can drink.

"They do them now as package holidays. Like, I haven't been sponsored by Wetherspoons but I read it."

He added: "Instead of flying to Spain you can pay, like, thirty quid all you can drink and stay in a hotel - imagine?!"

Ed then confessed to being a fan of Wetherspoons' nachos before admitting he regularly visited the Guildford branch when he lived in the Surrey town for a year.

Meanwhile, during the backstage chat, Ed was also grilled about rumours that he is set to play at Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's wedding in May.

But quashing the whispers, he said: “I don’t know where that came from…"

Confirming that he is on tour in Ireland on the day of the wedding, he added: "I don’t think we got asked, at all.

"As I keep saying, I have met him once. I don’t know him as a… you know, he’s a really nice guy but I’ve met him once."

The Perfect singer attended the Brit Awards with and Cherry and, thanks to a ring on his wedding finger, fuelled rumours that they have already married in secret.

But speaking to The Sun's Bizarre Editor Dan Wootton on the red carpet, Ed confirmed that his new piece of jewellery is actually an engagement ring.

He said: “I never saw why men didn’t wear engagement rings.

“It’s the same commitment either way.

“Cherry made it for me herself out of silver clay. I really like it.”
