YES! Ed Sheeran has released details of his new album Divide, sharing that it will be released on 3rd March.

After releasing two new singles and sharing the track listing, the singer has given us the final piece to the puzzle!

The album features his number one hit Castle On The Hill and Shape Of You, which charted at number two in the UK.

Divide follows the success of previous albums Multiply and Plus.

It comes after two years away from the limelight, which Sheeran said he took as an opportunity to travel the world.

The singer said he "specifically picked places" where he "wasn't really liked" so he could go unnoticed.

"No one really cares about me in Japan," he said. "There are like two people that like me in Japan.

With the news of the release date, more details have been revealed of what will be on the deluxe version of the album with new tracks named "Barcelona", "Bibia Be Ye Ye", "Nancy Mulligan" and "Save Myself".

The Photograph singer created the cover artwork for Divide himself.

It will give his fans an insight into his relationships, career and his world travels, he said.
