“Ed Sheeran’s Secret Splash: Neighbors Outraged Over Shocking Discovery in ‘Wildlife Pond'”
Taking to his Instagram page on Tuesday, the 33-year-old shared a video montage of a day in his life narrated by record producer and Selena Gomez’s boyfriend, Benny Blanco.
Among the many activities flaunted, Ed jumping into his private pond notably stood out amid growing criticism that his seemingly natural feature on his property has caused some disturbances.
A neighbor who asked not to be named told The Daily Mail on Thursday (August 22) that he had previously heard “yelling and splashing” from the pond, suggesting the star and his guests were swimming in it.

He told the British tabloid: “I’m not particularly happy about what is going on. You can actually hear him around the pond.”
Upon having Ed’s recent Instagram video presented to him, the angered neighbor added: “What you have shown me there is him taking the mick. It is exactly like we said it was going to be.
“When they first applied for that, it was supposed to be a wildlife pond, but it just escalated from one thing to another.”

The A Team hitmaker was initially granted consent to excavate a pond in the center of a field that he planted with trees on his £3.7 million (approximately $ 4.9 million) estate in Suffolk, UK.
At the time, Ed stated in planning documents that the kidney-shaped pool would “support nature conservation” and provide “a natural habitat for insects, amphibians, and birds.”
