Ed Sheeran is going on a hiatus.
The announcement was made by the singer himself during his last Divide tour earlier this week, in Ipswich, England.
“As you may or not know, I’ve been on the Divide tour for over two years now and this is the last day of the whole thing,” he said to the crowd. “There is something very bittersweet about it.”
“I love that you guys are here and we are ending it in Ipswich,” he added. “This is my last gig for probably 18 months.”
The “Beautiful People” artist continued by saying, “We’ve played all around the world. Glastonbury, Wembley Stadium. All these amazing venues, America, New Zealand, Australia, Asia, South America—it’s been a wild one.”
“I was told before I came on that, now, at the end of this tour, I’ve played to nine million people around the world – It is the biggest tour ever.”
The Brit also confessed, “It kind of feels like, in a weird way, that you’re breaking up with a girlfriend that you’ve been with for years, It sounds odd but it has been a long tour.”
He ended his emotionel speech by thanking everyone involved in making Divide such a success. “Thank you to everyone who has given me a chance,” he said. “This is my last song. I wrote this when I was 15 years old. See you in a few years time. Thank you.”

But before we freak out, the singer has reiterated that he’s not retiring. This time off is so he can make another album and hang out with his cats.
