Another album and tour over, another Ed Sheeran break from music.

The 28-year-old singer-songwriter announced to his fans on Instagram that he’s cutting out for a bit.

“Hello all. Gonna go on another break again,” Sheeran wrote. “The Divide era and tour changed my life in so many ways, but now it’s all over it’s time to go out and see some more of the world.”

Sheeran has been touring in promotion of his album “Divide” for about two years straight.

He last performed in Pittsburgh at PNC Park on Sept. 29, 2018.

OK, so maybe a break is kinda warranted.

What are his plans?

“I’m just gonna take a breather to travel, write and read,” he said. “I’ll be off all social media until it’s time to come back.”

He assured his fans this isn’t goodbye, it’s just goodbye for now.

“To my family and friends, see ya when I see ya — and to my fans, thank you for always being amazing.

“I promise to be back with some new music when the time is right and I’ve lived a little more to actually have something to write about.”
