Adele reveals how she kept her post-divorce relationship with Rich Paul a secret.
Adele has opened up about how she kept her new relationship with Rich Paul a secret
after her divorce from Simon Konecki. She has revealed that she initially kept her relationship
with Rich Paul a secret from everyone, including her friends, in order to keep it to herself.
Following her divorce from Simon Konecki, the 33-year-old singer has been dating the sports
agent since early this year. However, Adele, who has an ex-husband and a son named Angelo,
has now admitted that her close friends "didn't believe" she was in a new relationship
because she had kept it quiet for so long. "I didn't really tell many of my friends
at the beginning because I wanted to keep it to myself," she told Rolling Stone Magazine.
"None of them believed it!" so why did Adele keep this relationship a secret for some time? We have
the answers for you but before we get to it, make sure that you like this video and subscribe to our

Let’s get right into the good stuff now. She previously told the publication that
she met her boyfriend "years ago" on the dance floor at a birthday party for a mutual friend.
She told the publication that she doesn't recall the first song they danced to, but that it was
probably something by Drake because the DJ was playing too much of his music that night.
"I was like, 'You should play something else. I love Drake. But you should play
something else'," Adele explained. Adele soft-launched her beau onto her
Instagram account in September, when they made their social media debut with a sweet black and
white photo from a party photo booth. Adele also mentioned in the interview that there
was a specific moment when she felt "at peace with her decision to be alone after her split.
She said: "I remember going upstairs, and doing my face, and getting into bed. I felt quite hopeful.
It was the first time I felt I'd had a really nice evening and I was OK being in the house
and going to bed on my own. "I wasn't overjoyed,
but I was anticipating the next day." Adele claimed in a recent interview
with make-up artist Nikkie de Jager that she'd changed a lot since her divorce from her husband.
She explained, "It turned out I didn't know myself before."
She also stated that if she had the opportunity to ask herself any question,
it would not be about her dramatic weight loss, new boyfriend, or divorce.
The musician gave a close look into her battle with anxiety
following her divorce from Simon Konecki and the COVID-19 pandemic during her "Adele,
One Night Only" TV special with Oprah. And how she turned to exercise for anxiety and stress relief.
But we can’t help but wonder about the body transformation and the new album that’s clearly
inspired by her divorce. Adele has expressed objection about the idea of “revenge body”
saying that “it is ridiculous. I think it is that people love to portray a divorced woman
as spinning out of control.” She told Oprah about how she loves herself now more than ever
Adele is now fighting back against the backlash to her weight loss,
claiming that she was most hurt by the "brutal conversations" other women had about her body,
as she told Vogue. The "Easy on Me" singer told Oprah, "it is not my job to validate how people
feel about their bodies." “I feel bad if anyone feels horrible about themselves, but that’s not
my job. I’m trying to sort my own life out. I can’t have another worry.” she continued
“People are shocked because I didn’t share my ‘journey.’ They’re used to people documenting
everything on Instagram, and most people in my position would get a big deal with a diet brand,”
she said in the British Vogue interview. “I couldn’t give a flying f**k. I did it for myself
and not anyone else. So why would I ever share it? I don’t find it fascinating. it is my body.”
Adele insists that she hasn't changed on the inside despite her new look:
“My body’s been objectified my entire career. it is not just now,” she told Vogue in a separate
interview last month. “I understand why it is a shock. I understand why some women
especially were hurt. Visually I represented a lot of women. But I’m still the same person.”
Adele told British Vogue that working out had become "quite addictive" because it made her feel
good. She said, "I work out two or three times a day." The singer prefers strength training in the
mornings and hiking or boxing in the afternoons. She does her cardio at night. “I was basically
unemployed when I was doing it. And I do it with trainers,” she said, admitting that this routine
is “not very doable for a lot of people.” The star said the transformation was "mainly"
about controlling her anxiety. "I had the most terrifying anxiety attacks
after I left my marriage," she explained. "They paralyzed me completely and made me so confused
because I wouldn't be able to have any control over my Body."
Adele's disclosures about her divorce from Simon Konecki, according to Winfrey, will be beneficial
to "save" and "liberate" a large number of people — male and female — from failing marriages.
Because one of the things she mentioned was that she wasn't miserable.
Her entire life had been spent imagining what marriage and family would be like.
The reality, however, did not make her happy." “I didn’t really know myself,” she says. “I
thought I did. I don’t know if it was because of my Saturn return or if it was because I
was well and truly sort of heading into my thirties, but I just didn’t like who I was
"I take marriage very seriously... and it seems like I don't know," she said,
remorsefully. "Almost like I disrespected it by getting married and then divorced so quickly.
I'm embarrassed because it was so quick." "I've been obsessed with a nuclear family
my whole life because I never came from one," said the singer, whose father left home when she
was just two years old. "From a very young age [I] promised myself that, when I had kids, we'd stay
together. And I tried for a really, really long time." Even if she isn't "in love" with Konecki,
Adele insists that she still loves him. The couple still lives across the street from each other
in Los Angeles and co-parents their son, Angelo. Adele revealed this week that her One Night
Only CBS special concert was the first time Angelo had ever seen her perform,
despite the fact that her new album features her son and is dedicated to him.
In late October, the singer took to the stage at the Griffith
Observatory in Los Angeles to film the show. 'This is the first time my son has ever seen
me perform!' she exclaimed from the stage.” “Having you here tonight, baby, is the absolute
honour of my life,' she added with a smile. Adele is happier than ever in her relationship
with sports agent Rich Paul! Even though the couple only started dating a few months ago,
the singer revealed in the pages of Rolling Stone how she managed to keep
their relationship a secret. "At first, I didn't tell many of my friends because I wanted to keep
it to myself," she explained. Her relatives were taken aback when they learned the news!
"None of them believed it!" she recalled. Adele previously revealed that she met her
boyfriend years ago on the dance floor at a mutual friend's birthday party. Last September, she
finally formalized their relationship by sharing a black-and-white photograph with her companion.
The British singer had previously revealed what had enticed her to Rich Paul in an interview with
Oprah Winfrey. “He’s just hilarious. Oh, he’s so funny, he’s hilarious, yeah. And very smart. You
know, he’s very, very smart. It’s pretty amazing to watch him do what he does. It’s so easy
with him “She said. Assuring that this was the first time she had felt in harmony with herself,
the star added:” I feel good, I love myself and I’m ready to open up to love and be
loved (...) It’s just the timing. But, it would be interesting to see how my reaction,
in general, is to anything that hurts me now that I feel so sure of myself,
and I’m talking outside of romance as well.“ Adele appears in a good health as well! Do you
think Adele was right by keeping her relationship with Rich Paul a secret for some time?
