A Suffolk town has been the focus of online attention today amid rumours that star singer Ed Sheeran has returned to the county for Christmas - and that this time he has celebrity friend Taylor Swift in tow.

Social networks have been abuzz since a photo went online showing the famous pair with a fan called Alice in a Framlingham pub.

The A Team singer, who grew up in Framlingham and went to Thomas Mills High School, is no stranger to his hometown and still makes visits when his busy recording and touring schedule permits.

The pair duetted on hit song Everything Has Changed and have been followed by rumours of romance since becoming friends.

Swift even managed to convince Sheeran to buy a property in her home city of Nashville while he was touring America earlier this year.
