Sheeran, who grew up in Framlingham, passed his test yesterday.

Many of his fans posted congratulations on social media after the school that had been teaching Ed posted a picture of him with his test certificate.

Yesterday he tweeted to his 15.6million followers: “Passed my driving test yesterday, zoom zoom zoom”

Last week, Ed Sheeran was awarded an honorary degree from University Campus Suffolk for his “outstanding contribution to music”.
