Ed Sheeran got cosy with actress Phoebe Dynevor in the new music video for his song Camera.
The singer, 34, released his highly anticipated eighth album Play on Friday (September 12).
To celebrate the release, he dropped the official video for his new single Camera, starring the Bridgerton icon, 30.
Directed by Emil Nava, the official music video portrays the early stages of a romantic relationship.
Shot entirely on an iPhone, it showed Ed and Phoebe’s characters meeting each other at a restaurant for their first date.
The pair then got together for a romantic picnic in the park, before enjoying a night out in Croatia’s picturesque Old Town.

The music video also included shots of them cruising on a moped, bar-hopping into the night, and even sharing the stage at one of Ed’s stadium shows.
It comes after Ed revealed he had considered using private home footage with his wife, Cherry, for the Camera music video.
However, he opted to recreate the memories instead to keep parts of their life away from the spotlight.
‘My original Camera music video idea was using private home footage of mine and Cherry’s key moments of our relationship,’ Ed wrote when announcing the project.
‘But as you guys know, we are an intensely private couple, and some things we wanted to keep just for us.
‘So I recreated a few key moments of our relationship for the music video with the wonderful Phoebe Dynevor.’
Elsewhere, Ed recently called his new album ‘a direct response’ to ‘the darkest period of my life’.
In a press release, the star said: ‘Coming out of all that, I just wanted to create joy and technicolour, and explore cultures in the countries I was touring.’

Over the course of 13 songs, Ed sings about escape and release, love and devotion.
It comes after the singer revealed he’s relocating to America for the foreseeable future.
Ed is no stranger to travelling the world for his work, but revealed in a podcast interview that he would be ‘settling’ in the States with his family while on tour.
The singer, who has an impressive property portfolio worth a staggering £70million, recently snapped up a sprawling £9million home in New York.
Yet he spends the majority of his time at his Sheeranville estate in Suffolk with wife Cherry Seaborn and their daughters, Lyra, five, and Jupiter, three.
Speaking on the 2 Johnnies podcast, he shared: ‘I’m just about to move to America. I feel like I might be the only person moving to America.

‘I’m going on tour there for a while and I have a family so I can’t dip in and out. We’re going and settling there.’
Ed did not specify where in the States he would be moving to.
Yet he previously said that a move to the States could be on the cards because he wanted to transition into country music.
Ed said earlier this year: ‘When you transition to country, you can’t transition back.
‘Nashville is my favourite city in the States and it’s always been my end goal to move to Nashville and transition to country.’
Ed’s decision to move abroad comes just two months after he sparked backlash for claiming he identifies ‘culturally as Irish’ despite being born and raised in England.
While the singer-songwriter was brought up in Suffolk, his father John hails from Belfast, meaning he spent much of his childhood in Ireland.
Opening up on his heritage on The Louis Theroux Podcast, Ed explained: ‘I class my culture as Irish. I think that’s what I grew up with.
‘My dad’s family is … he’s got seven brothers and sisters. We’d spend all of our holidays in Ireland.
‘My first musical experiences were in Ireland, I grew up with trad music in the house. So I identify culturally as Irish, but I was obviously born and raised in Britain.’

The Galway Girl hitmaker went on to say that he was ‘really proud’ of his Irish cultural roots, and that he didn’t feel that he had to ‘just be British’, as it was down to ‘how you feel’.
He said: ‘I don’t overthink it but I do feel like my culture is something that I’m really proud of and grew up with and want to express.
‘And I feel like just because I was born in Britain doesn’t necessarily mean that I have to just be [British], there’s loads of people I know that are half this or quarter this.
‘I don’t think there’s any rules to it. It should be how you feel and how you were raised and what you lean into.’
And when asked whether he gets ‘a lot of love’ in Ireland, the chart-topping star also praised the country as being ‘my second home’.
He said: ‘I’d say it’s basically my second home, musically. I’d say Ireland is the place that I am most successful musically.’
