Beloved pop singer and songwriter Ed Sheeran is currently on his fourth tour, and despite being busy and traveling the world, he took the time to stop and surprise the kids at a children's hospital.

The +–=÷× Tour officially kicked off in April of 2022 and is slated to continue through September of 2023.

During the tour, Sheeran is scheduled to perform in several cities throughout Australia, New Zealand, Europe, and North America.

Between traveling, working, jet lag, and his busy schedule, you can imagine Sheeran is stretched thin. However, he didn't let that stop him from performing a sweet act of kindness.

While in Australia recently, Sheeran took time away from his busy tour schedule to pay a surprise visit to The Royal Children's Hospital in Melbourne.

Children, parents, and staff pressed around in excitement while Sheeran performed for the hospital.

It's always nice to see celebrities, who often have so many resources, giving back in some way.
