It is safe to say that by now everybody has listened to Adele’s new album and learned
about her personal life and what she has been going through with her divorce. During her
"Adele, One Night Only" TV special with Oprah, the “Hello” star dished a lot about her
divorce and how it caused her anxiety. 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.
She gushed over her now-boyfriend Rich Paul, how she met him, what she likes about him
the most, and how he makes her feel! And, honestly, we can all see how he makes her
feel! We have all the details about her latest love

Winfrey, who had never met Adele before, told bestie Gayle King and the CBS Mornings team
on Friday that she had a custom suit made for the interview in the color of "my favorite
rose." After learning Adele would be wearing a neutral suit as well, she "fretted" over
her outfit and even called King to discuss her fashion dilemma.
When Winfrey conducts interviews with "people of significance," she first asks them what
they want to get out of it, according to her. Adele, she said, replied, “I just want to
be able to share my truth and talk about what I've been through and express that in the
most natural way.' And that is exactly what happened in that interview."
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. The interview legend says she listened to
all the British songstress's albums on repeat and fretted over her outfit ahead of the sit-down,
which took place in the rose garden at Winfrey's Montecito, Calif., estate and is part of Sunday's
CBS concert special Adele One Night Only. She said they talked about Adele's new album,
30, and life — divorce, single-parenting, and falling in love again.
Adele has "liberated herself from the marriage," according to Winfrey, "but they obviously
still have a great relationship because they're raising their son together," referring to
Angelo, who is nine years old. She also said Adele wanted to "present a happy
person to her son, which I think is so liberating," according to the OWN founder. "Because so
many people stay for the sake of the children, putting their own lives in jeopardy. The children
then grow up with a depressed mother. That, I believe, will benefit a large number of
people." Adele considers her divorce to be "divorcing
herself" and getting to the point of loving herself enough, according to Winfrey. During
the conversation, she also mentioned her new boyfriend, sports agent Rich Paul. He was
in the garden for the interview, which was also the site of King's daughter Kirby Bumpus'
wedding in February. The musician gave a rare insight 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. Adele claims that she turned to
exercise for relief, which resulted in her losing weight.
She told Oprah, "It really contributed towards me getting my mind right."
The "Hello" singer opened up even more about her health changes in an October interview
with British Vogue, explaining why she chose to keep her "100-pound" weight loss a secret.
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 new relationship, according to Winfrey, is "the first time she has actually been in
love and also loved herself." On the morning show, a new teaser of the interview
was also shown. In it, Winfrey dissects Adele's song "Hold On," which Adele said was about
her friends supporting her when she was at her lowest point following her divorce.
Friends had said those two words to her when she was younger, according to the singer "In
the midst of the "divorce process," I'm "struggling." Being a single parent is a difficult process.
When I first became a mother, I had no intention of not seeing my child every single day."
She said it was difficult to manage all of this while also taking care of herself, her
home, and her business. Adele explained, "So many people know what
I'm talking about." "I just didn't feel like doing it... Walking through all of that concrete
hurt my feet." On CBS Mornings, Winfrey said the song is
"For anyone struggling with anything, this is going to be the national anthem all over
the world. That song is so touching and lovely." But after her struggle with divorce and building
herself up again, luckily, she met the one! Rich and Adele have "really connected" in
the few months they have been dating, according to the source. "Adele is having so much fun
with Rich; they have bonded over their shared sense of humour, and they admire each other's
work ethic." They make time for each other and give each other plenty of space so they
don't become overbearing," they revealed. Adele admitted to being nervous before their
blind date, which took place after her divorce from Simon Konecki. "You can't arrange a f***ing
blind date for me!" In an interview with Rolling Stone, she recalled saying to her friend,
"How's that going to work?" The couple made their first public appearance together in
July 2021 at Game 5 of the NBA Finals, but it wasn't until two months later at NBA star
Anthony Davis' wedding to Marlen P. that they went Instagram official.
Adele revealed in another interview that the two had been in each other's orbits through
mutual friends. "He was always there, I just didn't see him," she told Vogue, adding that
the incident occurred "a couple of years" prior to their date. "He was dancing." All
of the other guys were doing nothing but sitting around. She recalled, "He was just dancing
away." In early August, E! spoke with a source close
to Adele about why the singer has been more open to having her romance with Paul in the
spotlight. Their relationship has been described as "a bit of a whirlwind," according to the
source. According to the outlet's source, Paul is
"outgoing" and wants to "get out and about," which Adele has "embraced." "She isn't as
concerned about keeping her personal life private because she is so happy with Rich
and having a good time dating Rich," the source continued. "They spend a lot of time together,"
says the source. “Adele appears to be in a good mood."
