Ed Sheeran admits that he was hit really hard by his trip to Liberia.

The Thinking Out Loud singer was deeply affected by his role in Comic Relief, which saw him visit the West African country's capital, Monrovia. As part of the trip for Red Nose Day, Sheeran spent some time at a school in the region of West Point, which is where he came across a very special young girl indeed. Peaches is 12 years old and she revealed how, since her father's death due to Ebola, her family could no longer afford to send her to school. Peaches' story is a heartbreaking one and one that left Sheeran, as well as all of us, in floods of tears. https://www.youtube.com/embed/LHKDAF9XKoo "We had an impromptu jamming session and the girl could really sing. Peaches sang a song that reminded her of her father and as she did, tears started to roll down her face," he wrote in his diary of his trip for the BBC. "The enthusiasm that was initially shining out of her disappeared. "It was at this point that the reality of Peaches' situation, and many, many kids just like her, hit me really hard. "Peaches told me she wanted to be a musician when she grows up, and who knows, maybe she can make that happen, but for now, she has been forced to drop out of school and spends her days working in a filthy, dangerous slum, earning what she can to help feed her family. "It is because of kids like Peaches and the thousands more like her across Africa that I am relieved that Red Nose Day exists."
