As James Blunt enters the castle on The Celebrity Traitors, we revisit our conversation with the singer-songwriter on trust, loyalty, betrayal, and the people who shaped his life. From Carrie Fisher, who took him in before anyone knew his name, to what Ed Sheeran has that he lost. Before Back to Bedlam made him a star, Carrie Fisher invited James to live in her LA home. He tells Jake and Damian about the creative chaos of her house, the night "Goodbye My Lover" was recorded in her bathroom, what she taught him about showing vulnerability, and how he reflects on losing her. A former British Army officer, James also shares the day he defied orders in Kosovo to keep a promise to the villagers he'd sworn to protect, and what leading soldiers taught him about trust and decisions under pressure. He explains why he has kept the same band and crew for 20 years, how a tabloid newspaper tried to set him up, and why he believes Ed Sheeran's confidence is the secret to his success. From boarding school and writing "Monsters" for his father to playing arenas and his new album Airplane Mode, this is James Blunt as you've never heard him. 🚨 Partners HP Foundation 👉 Do you want to kick-start an evolution that will change the lives of millions of children?
