Suffolk singer will perform on the Strictly stage
The Shape Of You singer will take to the stage on the BBC show tonight.
The performance was announced with a tweet on Strictly’s official Twitter account earlier this week that said: “Just when you thought our Strictly Grand Final couldn’t be any more perfect. Ed Sheeran performs. Saturday 6.30pm @BBCOne.”
Sheeran said in a short video: “Hi, I’m Ed Sheeran. Catch me on the Strictly Come Dancing final on December 16.”
Gemma Atkinson, Joe McFadden, Debbie McGee and Alexandra Burke are the final celebrities left in the competition and will compete for the strictly crown.
