​After spending more than a year gigging across the world as part of his \'X\' tour, Ed Sheeran deserves to take some time off to regroup - and it looks like the singer feels the same way.

Having wrapped his last show in Auckland on Saturday night (December 12), Sheeran took to Twitter to share his joy that his tour had ended just in time for Christmas.

And while the star had previously hinted that he\'d be spending some time away from the spotlight when his final show was over, he\'s now taken to Instagram to fully detail the thoughts behind his self-imposed break - and drop hints about his next album to help ease the pain.

"Hello all," the star wrote. "I\'m taking a break from my phone, emails and all social media for a while.

"I\'ve had such an amazing ride over the last five years but I find myself seeing the world through a screen and not my eyes, so I\'m taking this opportunity of me not having to be anywhere or do anything to travel the world and see everything I missed.

"To my family and friends, if you love me you will understand me buggering off for a bit. To my fans, the third album is on its way and is the best thing I have made thus far. See you all next autumn, and thank you for being amazing."

The star also received a number of Grammy nominations earlier this month, including Record of the Year for \'Thinking Out Loud\' where he will face off against Taylor Swift\'s \'Blank Space\', The Weeknd\'s \'Can\'t Feel My Face\', Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars\'s \'Uptown Funk\', and D\'Angelo and The Vanguard\'s \'Really Love\'.
