Ed Sheeran waved goodbye to Instagram in a dramatic end of year post, and reassured fans he would be back to serenade them again in the new year. 

After wrapping up filming for a music video to go with his new album due out next year, the chart-topper declared he was done with 2022.

Taking to his social media account, Ed posted a behind-the-scenes snap from the beach set of the promo, where he can be seen with his back to the camera, standing on a giant rock looking out at sea.

Alongside the poetic picture, he alerted fans to his upcoming hiatus captioning the image with: ‘Signing off now until 2023.

‘See you in the new year. Much love, Ed x.’

Recently revealing plans to release a tell-all style documentary about his life and career, he also announced plans to extend his Mathematics Tour until 2026.

The singer-songwriter shared that he is struggling to get the balance right in deciding what to show and what to keep private in the ‘honest’ documentary. 

‘We are shooting a documentary at the minute about my life and there was a big conversation about what we include,’ Ed disclosed last week in conversation about his latest project. 

The Perfect singer urged that he wasn’t willing to cause any unnecessary harm to his own life in order to make sure the film was transparent: ‘As it is honest… there is no point in putting something in if there is something detrimental to my life.

‘It is a very fine line, it is why I live in Suffolk and not in LA. 

‘My life as a celebrity is turned on when I am in New York, but at home I am a friend, a dad, a husband, a son. 

‘You can’t bring celebrity baggage to home.’ 

Set to release his new album Subtract next year, Ed explained that he is feeling more ‘creative’ than ever after ridding himself of pressure to produce huge smash hits. 

The 31-year-old shared: ‘I am in the most creative part of my life.

‘The pressure of having every album having to be this gargantuan pop machine is off.

‘I feel I have had five of them now and now is the time to explore doing stuff and taking risks.’ 

He continued with an update on his tour dates and confirmed the expansion: ‘I am going to be on a stadium tour for years, so even if I put out an album and it bombs, I’m still playing to 90,000 people a night.

‘I don’t feel the pressure of it. We will finish in 2026.’
