The rumors of a possible engagement began at the 2022 Brit Awards when Adele was spotted wearing a large diamond ring. The press asked about the jewelry and Adele immediately denied an engagement.

Soon after, Adele stopped by the Graham Norton show and once again hinted that she is still not engaged saying,

‘If I was would I ever tell anyone if I was or wasn’t?’

according to StyleCaster.

“I’m just in loooove! I’m happy as I’ll ever be. I might as well be married.” 

Adele told The Cut.

Home life

Adele has also talked about wanting more kids and to continue to build a family, with the right person. According to her interview with Elle,

"I'm a homemaker and I'm a matriarch, and a stable life helps me with my music."

Boyfriend Rich Paul already has three children from a previous relationship and is also open to adding more to the family.

Business first

Adele’s main focus now is getting back on track with her Vegas residency. The star found herself facing backlash from fans when she postponed her big Vegas residency back in January 2022 due to conflicts over the set design and overall feel of the venue. The star calls it a ‘low point’ in her career according to her interview with Elle magazine.

Adele breaks down after postponing show.

Fans can expect the residency to kick off in November 2022 and possibly some more big news from the singer any day now.
