‘Wait, are they a couple?’: Fans react as Ed Sheeran drops “A Little More” music video starring Rupert Grint

Ed Sheeran has a habit of surprising fans, and his latest move has left the internet buzzing.

The singer just released the music video for his new track A Little More, with none other than Rupert Grint playing the lead alongside him. For anyone who’s been online over the last decade, this pairing is already a big deal after all, Sheeran and Grint have long been the subject of “twin” jokes thanks to their similar looks.

Reacting to the video clip shared on X by Pop Crave, a fan posted: "Wait, are they a couple?"

Ed Sheeran and Rupert Grint’s reunion

It’s not the first time the two have teamed up. Grint famously starred in Sheeran’s Lego House music video back in 2011. But this new collaboration has a different feel. The visuals show the two sharing an emotional connection, and fans can’t quite figure out what kind.

That mystery sent social media into overdrive.

A fan wondered out loud: "@grok are they a couple in real life?"

Not everyone was fixated on the storyline: "I love Ed’s music! Can’t wait to watch the video."

A user joked: "They took the meme to a whole new level."

While one viewer didn’t hold back their disapproval: "We don’t want this."

The video’s viral pull comes down to a mix of nostalgia and curiosity. Fans remember Lego House, and seeing the duo together again instantly sparks that memory. Add in the fact that both Ed Sheeran and Grint are huge cultural figures in the UK, and you’ve got a recipe for trending content.

Ed Sheeran is one of the biggest names in music, known for heartfelt lyrics and chart-topping hits. Rupert Grint, of course, played Ron Weasley in the Harry Potter series and has since built a career with varied film and TV roles.

They may work in different worlds, but both share a grounded, relatable vibe that fans connect to. That shared energy makes their on-screen pairing feel natural even if the internet can’t decide what’s going on between them.

The relationship between their characters in A Little More is deliberately vague. That’s fuel for endless speculation and speculation is exactly what keeps a post alive online.

Whether you see it as a clever marketing move, a nostalgic throwback, or just a bit of fun, A Little More is doing exactly what a music video should: getting people talking.

Some are shipping them, others are confused, and a few want none of it. But either way, Ed Sheeran and Rupert Grint have managed to turn a four-minute video into one of the week’s most talked-about releases.
