Ed Sheeran cancels Asia tour dates after cycling accident

Ed Sheeran says he is "unable to perform live concerts for the immediate future" after breaking his arm in a cycling accident.

The star came off his bike, reportedly after being struck by a car, at the weekend.

"A visit to my doctors confirmed fractures in my right wrist and left elbow," he said on Instagram, alongside a picture of his arm in a cast.

So far, dates in Taipei, Osaka, Seoul, Tokyo and Hong Kong have been affected.

"I'm waiting to see how the healing progresses before we have to decide on shows beyond that," the star said.

"Please stay tuned for more details."
