In the video, Sheeran seemed in high spirits as he said that this is the "best thing I've done." Though this is the first time he's "released an album and not been around anyone," he still asked fans to let him know what they think of the new record.

Earlier this week, the "Shivers" singer revealed that he had tested positive for COVID-19 and would have to cancel his upcoming, in-person promotion for =.

"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," Sheeran shared in an Instagram post.

"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," he continued. "Apologies to anyone I've let down. Be safe everyone x."

Sheeran first announced his album's release in August and said it was a "really personal record."

"= (Equals) is a really personal record and one that means a lot to me," Sheeran said in a statement at the time. "My life changed greatly over the past few years — I got married, became a father, experienced loss, and I reflect on these topics over the course of the album. I see it as my coming-of-age record, and I can't wait to share this next chapter with you."

Last week, the singer performed "Visiting Hours" as a part of Prince William's inaugural Earthshot Prize Awards.
