Ed Sheeran is one of the world's biggest singers and songwriters, but he's also good at pitching songs to his artist friends, namely Camila Cabello.

Camila crossed paths with Ed several times when working on her debut album Camila, even recording a song that he wrote for her, before then deciding not to include it on the final tracklist. One song that did make the cut was Consequences; while not written by Ed, he was the one who introduced Camila to it.

Amy Wadge, the country music songwriter who co-wrote the song, has explained to Music Week how the song ended up on Camila's lap. It was down to one middle man, Mr Sheeran. When asked whether the song was written for Camila in mind, Amy confirmed that it wasn't:

"No. I wrote it with Nicolle Galyon and Emily Weisband, then played it to Ed and he said, ‘You know who you need to send this to?’ So he sent it to her [Camila], she worked her magic, wrote a bit as well and that’s how it came to life. He’s always got my back, he’s a very generous soul and he always listens to everything I do. He’s incredibly generous like that."
