Ed Sheeran stops his gig twice to go to the loo

Ed Sheeran had a rather awkward couple of moments at his sell-out show in Cardiff at the weekend.

The 'Perfect' singer had to temporarily halt his his world tour show to go to the toilet - twice!

He told fans at his Saturday night gig in Cardiff that he "needed a pee" after performing 'Galway Girl'.

Just three songs later, Ed stopped in the middle of 'Photograph', saying: "I'm so sorry Cardiff", before running off to the lop again.

Fans in the 60,000 Principality Stadium crowd cheered the singer when he returned to the stage.

Too many bottles of water, Ed?

After his first trip to the toilet, he told the crowd: "I've been gigging since I was 14 and I've never done that.

"And now I do it in front of 60,000 people".

I’ve never seen 60,000 people wait so patiently for someone to go to the toilet... twice #EdSheeran #Cardiff

First concert I’ve ever been to when the main artist has needed the loo (twice) during a set.. including one halfway through a song?! Good night though. #EdSheeran

The Cardiff show was the penultimate gig of the UK leg of his Divide world tour, before it returns to mainland Europe and Amsterdam on Thursday night. 

He became the first artist to have four nights in a row at the Principality Stadium this week.
