However, everything did not go as planned due in particular to Warner Music, Ed Sheeran’s record company. Not agreeing to the use of the future star’s image for the remix, the label threatened Jethro with legal action if he did not agree to their terms. Ed Sheeran even hired a lawyer to put pressure on his cousin, according to the latter. Due to financial problems, Jethro Sheeran lost.
“I no longer consider him a member of my family,” explains the redhead’s cousin to the MailOnline. “It’s up to him to be the first to apologize, but I don’t think he ever will. I have been ordered to remove his name and image from our shared music. He has made millions, but I feel that I am entitled to compensation and recognition.”
According to Jethro Sheeran, they had a verbal agreement on three songs. “These are songs that I produced. I then gave them to him so he could present them to his fans.” The forty-year-old then concluded in his interview: “This is really ridiculous. Why is he refusing to help his family even a little bit?”
