Ed Sheeran is hitting the pause button, because he says he’s tested positive for COVID-19 … which disrupts a few things in his immediate future.
The singer made the announcement Sunday on Instagram, writing … “Hey guys. Quick note to tell you that I’ve sadly tested positive for Covid, so I’m now self-isolating and following government guidelines.”

He adds, “It means that I’m now unable to plough ahead with any in person commitments for now, so I’ll be doing as many of my planned interviews/performances I can from my house. Apologies to anyone I’ve let down. Be safe everyone x”
It sounds like the guy will be well enough to carry on with some scheduled responsibilities — of which we’re sure there’s quite a few, seeing how Ed’s new album is due out next week.
Speaking of one of those commitments, ‘SNL’ just announced yesterday that Ed would be the musical guest alongside host Kieran Culkin for Nov. 6’s episode — but it’s unclear if he’ll be able to make that or not … it’s 13 days away, and he could presumably be well by then.
Ed is also supposed to be appearing on “The Voice” this week as a musical mentor — but they seem to have taped his segment well before this diagnosis. No word if he was planning on making an in-person visit as well — but if so, that’s almost certainly off now.
It’s interesting though … ES seems down to Zoom it up if push comes to shove, so perhaps his gigs won’t scrapped entirely. Time will tell, we suppose.
