A fan at an Ed Sheeran gig proposed to his girlfriend, who is battling cancer, after Ed gave him front row tickets

Ultimate nice guy

Another feel good Ed Sheeran story to warm the heart.

While on tour in Canada, Ed Sheeran is breaking all kinds of do-gooder records, singing an impromptu duet with a girl in Edmonton and helping a guy propose to his girlfriend who is battling cancer.

Pablo Beneitez met Sheeran at a separate function and asked the singer to play his girlfriend’s favourite song ‘Thinking Out Loud’ as he was hoping to propose.

Ed Sheeran gave him front row tickets to take his girlfriend, Tanya Prochshyn, to the gig and even stopped singing in the middle of the song to congratulate the couple on their engagement.

And of course, Pablo let him know how he got on

Jaysus, we hope we get to meet Ed Sheeran when he comes to Ireland in July; there are a few jobs to get done around the office and he sounds up to the task.

Maybe he could make us dinner?

The Saskatoon couple have been inundated with goodwill messages from their local community since the proposal and local radio station C95 have started a campaign to fund Pablo and Tanya’s wedding and give her the Honeymoon of her dreams, a trip to Niagara Falls.

Doesn’t it just make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside?
