Ed Sheeran has revealed that he features on another big star's album, which is due out next week! Making the announcement on Instagram Ed said, 'I've had to hold onto this secret for a long time, but since it's just been announced I can now tell you all.'

Ed goes on to say he features on a song on Eminem's new album, as his caption continues, 'I did a song with Eminem for his new album Revival, which is out on the 15th of December. He is one of the reasons I started writing songs, and was such a pleasure to work with him. The song is called River, hope you like it. Yay x'

Ed joins a number of massive pop stars who have also featured on Eminem's brand new album due out on the 15th December. The album titled 'Revival' includes collaborations with the likes of the amazing Beyoncé, who featured on Eminem's current single 'Walk On Water', P!nk who features on a song called 'Need Me' and Alicia Keys who joins forces with Eminem on 'Like Home'.

Last month Eminem dropped a surprise comeback single 'Walk On Water' featuring Beyoncé which is an emotional, introspective song. It's release followed a number of teasing posts from the rapper on Instagram, including one which showed a fake prescription saying 'Walk on Water, Take as needed'.

In other Ed news, it's been a busy week for the singer, who has just been awarded an MBE by Prince Charles at Buckingham Palace. The singer attended the ceremony earlier today (7th December) where he met the Prince of Wales and collected his medal.
