From jealous partners, to constantly questioning the true intentions of others, Jones sounds like he's has had enough of secondhand fame.
"It's made my relationships worse I'd say because now I have to weigh up if they like me for me or are they're just interested in me because I'm the next best thing to Ed if they really like him."
"When girls ask me for pictures in the streets it's annoyed some of my girlfriends in the past and caused problems," Jones said. "It's hard to explain because it's not like I can help it and I don't like being horrible to people and deny them a picture if they want one."

While it hasbeen a struggle, Jones admitted that the resemblance does have its perks, such as getting VIP access into clubs and getting pulled on stage by DJ Ben Pearce. "Ben actually thought I was Ed Sheeran and started introducing me as him it was quite funny - then when I told him I just look like him he couldn't believe it," Jones told the Mirror.

Hopefully, things look up for Jones' love life, and if nothing else, perhaps the two can use their looks to pull some hilarious pranks on fans in the future.
