Ed Sheeran has spoken about the subject of his new single Don't, revealing he doesn't feel "any bitterness towards that situation at all".

Following speculation that the scathing track, which features on his new album X, could be about former flame Ellie Goulding, Ed has since told Capital FM: "They don't really (know) though, people have assumptions.

]The I See Fire singer went on to add that he was "over" the whole episode, explaining: "With that track, I only felt that way for a week, and then I made my peace with it and got on with it...

"It just happened that that song was alright and I wanted to put it on the album.

"But I don't have any bitterness towards that situation at all. I literally got over it within the week and the song just stuck around."
