Princess Beatrice CUT Ed Sheeran’s face in mock ‘knighting’ ceremony
And now, for the most bizarre story of the day…
Eagle-eyed Ed Sheeran fans may have noticed the singer has been sporting a nasty-looking cut on his face of late, and wondered where exactly it came from.
Well, that cut has THE BEST back-story, EVER.
According to reports, Princess Beatrice slashed Ed’s face with a ceremonial sword while ‘mock’ knighting James Blunt!
We’re not even joking, right now!
According to the Mirror, Ed and James Blunt were two of around 20 guests invited around to the Duke of York’s stately home, for a dinner party hosted by Beatrice.
Apparently, James Blunt joked about getting knighted, and Bea was only too happy to indulge.
Yep, off she went to fetch the CEREMONIAL SWORD, and gave it a swing behind her head.
Unfortunately, what Beatrice didn’t realise was that Ed Sheeran was standing behind her – and he got a right old whack in the face from the sword.
Ed was brought to hospital, where nurses tended to a cut on his right cheek.
A source told the Mirror: “He could have been blinded. Beatrice was deeply upset and inconsolable.”
I mean, where do we even begin with this one?!
