Adele sparked rumors that she might have married her boyfriend Rich Paul secretly when she referred to him ‘my husband’. The news broke when the pop artist was chatting with her fans at Las Vegas, on a Saturday night.

This was during a segment of a gig Weekend 27 where Adele walks around to answer questions asked by the audience and fans. The video that was posted on TikTok which had Adele’s female fan asking to marry her at the show was the one that sparked the rumors. The pop singer Adele, responded to the fan by saying "You can't marry me, I'm straight, my love. And my husband's here tonight". The woman added: "Can you try?" and Adele joked: "Oh no I don't want to try. I'm with Rich. You're crazy, leave me alone."

The multi-award winner, Adele was previously married in 2018 to Simon Konecki who fathers her son Angelo. The two got divorced later in 2021. Following the divorce, the ‘rolling in the deep’ singer got into a two-year romantic relationship with the 41-year-old sport agent, Paul. This was after their first meeting on the dance floor at a birthday party that was hosted by a mutual friend.

Their relationship was confirmed by them in 2021 following them being pictured at a basketball game. Adele admitted that she and Paul had tried keeping the relationship to themselves for as long as they could, she mentioned that not even her close friends knew of her having a boyfriend before they could confirm the news.

Adele mentioned in an interview with Rolling Stones that "I didn’t really tell many of my friends at the beginning because I wanted to keep it to myself ...None of them believed it when the news broke."

At a later stage during one of her interviews the pop singer Adele shared with the CBC in 2021 where she mentioned that Paul is a funny guy to be around, “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 quite incredible watching him do what he does."

Comments from her fans that viewed the video were interesting. One of the comments from Elizabeth was that “her husband??? omgg Adele Paul???, married?”. And another comment sparked from @Kianna said that “I feel like not many people knew, but she literally spoke about it in an interview once”.
