The 26-year-old revealed during the event he contributes his success to perseverance and self-belief rather than talent, saying, “I think it’s persistence. I don’t have a vast amount of talent compared to other people.”
“I think talent is like thirty percent of it and persistence, drive and self belief are the other ones, which I guess are all the same thing,” Sheeran remarked.
