Ed Sheeran Receives Guinness World Record

Turns out slow and steady DOES win the race! Ed Sheeran has shared his excitement at receiving his official record certification from Guinness World Records.

He broke the record for 'The longest climb to No. 1 on the UK singles chart,' the ultimate proof that he's more of a marathon man than a sprinter. His record of 19 weeks was achieved between the 5th July and 8th November 2014. 

He's just shared this photo of the certificate on instagram, which he captioned 'That ain't too sh*t is it'.

Congratulations Ed!
