Ed Sheeran's close friend Taylor Swift has revealed that the singer has a crush on actress Mila Kunis.

Asked to name who in the entertainment industry Sheeran is attracted to, Swift told a Britain radio station: `This was at a certain time, Mila Kunis.`

However, Sheeran, 24, instantly replied that his attraction to Kunis, 31, was before she got engaged to her former `That '70s Show` co-star Ashton Kutcher - with whom she has a five-month-old daughter, Wyatt Isabelle Kutcher - and also before he started dating his current girlfriend Athina Andrelos, who he's said to be seeing since early 2014, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

`I'm involved now,` said Sheeran.

Swift replied: `And then you got a girlfriend, but this was your last one.`

Sheeran also insisted he wouldn't have felt awkward meeting Kunis at the height of his attraction to her because he doubts she'd have recognised him.

He explained: `The last time I said it was like 2012 so that was at a point where she wouldn't have known who I was so that's fine.`
