Hit 109.9’s Carrie and Tommy Show, Elton said that they both play tricks one another and have stayed good pals, despite Sheeran swapping management teams a few years ago.“For my birthday this year, he gave me a giant marble penis. … It’s really big; it’s beautifully made.

And he said, ‘No, we have children.'”It’s now “hidden in an area in the house where” the kids won’t see it.“But it’s a beautifully-made penis.
