Ed Sheeran 'taking break' from social media

Ed Sheeran is "taking a break" from social media. The 'Thinking Out Loud' hitmaker wrapped up the last night of his tour yesterday (12.12.15) and has revealed he will be taking a hiatus from his phone, emails and Twitter so he stops "seeing the world through a screen" for a while. Taking to his Instagram account, he wrote: "Hello all. I'm taking a break from my phone, emails and all social media for a while, I've had such an amazing ride over the last five years but I find myself seeing the world through a screen and not my eyes so I'm taking this opportunity of me not having to be anywhere or do anything to travel the world and see everything I missed. (sic)" The 24-year-old singer went on to promise his fans that his third album is "on its way" and claims it is the best one he's made so far. He continued: "To my family and friends, if you love me you will understand me buggering off for a bit, to my fans, the 3rd album is on its way and is the best thing I have made thus far. See you all next autumn, and thank you for being amazing. Ed x (sic)"
