What is Ed Sheeran's new album called?

Whilst he hasn't officially confirmed what his 2025 album will be named, fans are convinced Ed has already given it away.

Back in 2023 the singer posted on social media: "See you sometime next year when we press Play again on pop, and have a good holiday season x." This led many followers to believe his new record may be called 'Play'.

Then in February 2025 Ed replied to a fan who was speculating as to what his next album will be named.

The person wrote: "Ed Sheeran recently changed his profile picture guys! What math is he gonna do next?" This is referring to Ed's previous albums which have been named after mathematical symbols, such as '+', '-' ,'=', '÷' and 'x'.

Ed then responded saying: "Irony is if you ask me anything maths related I would fail the question, I never finished high school." He continued: "Play coming soon though."
