Ed Sheeran quits Twitter after cameo on Game of Thrones’ season premiere
The singer got a lot of shade after his appearance on the show.
Ed Sheeran deleted his Twitter account on Monday, for the second time this month. The singer got a lot of mixed reactions after a cameo on the season premiere of Game of Thrones, after which his Twitter account abruptly vanished.
The episode was HBO’s most-watched premiere ever.
Earlier in July, Sheeran had quit Twitter because of trolls, then denied he did it, and came back on the social blogging platform. Twitter has a lot to say about this, of course.

Audibly groaned when Ed Sheeran came on screen in #GameOfThrones because it was entirely unnecessary and not subtle in the slightest
