LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Johnny McDaid, the 47-year-old Irish musician with a net worth of $5 million, celebrated his tenth anniversary with Courteney Cox. Mutual friend Ed Sheeran made the milestone extra special by singing a personalized version of his 2017 smash hit 'Shape of You' in their honor.

Cox, 59, posted a clip of the song on Instagram and revealed that she was first introduced to the 'Snow Patrol' star ten years ago by Sheeran.

Johnny McDaid and Courteney Cox relationship timeline

McDaid and Cox have been together since 2013 but they got engaged in February 2014.

They had briefly called off their engagement in 2015 but got together a year later, unwilling to part ways for good.

In an interview with People in 2022, Cox shared that their relationship has helped her realize that "love is precious." She complimented McDaid for being "a great listener" and his ability to be "patient."

"He's a great advice-giver. I love his heart, his intentions. His morals... He's extremely talented and obviously musical, but he's a poet and a writer. He's just so smart, and I find that really sexy. And then he is gorgeous," she added.

The album was inspired by the "highs of falling in love and new friendships among lows of heartbreak, depression, loneliness, and confusion," shared Sheeran in an Instagram post.

"Last autumn, I found that my friends and I were going through so many life changes. After the heat of the summer, everything either calmed, settled, fell apart, came to a head or imploded."

"When I went through a difficult time at the start of last year, writing songs helped me understand my feelings and come to terms with what was going on, and when I learned about my friend’s different situations, I wrote songs, some from their perspectives, some from mine, to capture how they and I viewed the world at that time," he explained.
