AceShowbiz - Ed Sheeran was taken to hospital Monday morning, October 16. The star was reportedly hit by a car when riding his bicycle in London. He seemed to break his arm. He wore a cast in one arm and had a support in another in his Instagram picture.
"I've had a bit of a bicycle accident and I'm currently waiting on some medical advice, which may affect some of my upcoming shows. Please stay tuned for further news," so the British singer/songwriter informed his 15 million followers.
