Recent updates on the relationship between singer Adele and basketball agent Rich Paul have disclosed an unexpected engagement between the pair.
Dispelling longstanding rumors of a secret marriage, it was revealed that Rich Paul, 42, proposed to Adele during a recent visit to Tottenham in London, the hometown of the acclaimed singer.
The news coincides with reports hinting at Adele’s potential move back to the UK.
According to The Sun, Rich Paul meticulously planned the proposal in Tottenham as a significant gesture in the singer’s hometown, presenting her with a stunning four-carat diamond ring.
Following the proposal, the couple celebrated with a champagne toast at Chiltern Firehouse. Contrary to previous speculations, Adele found humor in the assumption that they were already wedded.
Past rumors suggested that Adele and Rich had secretly tied the knot, fueled by alleged confirmation during a comedy show attended by Adele’s close friend Alan Carr in Los Angeles.
An audience member shared how Adele enthusiastically responded “I did” when asked by Carr if anyone had recently married.
Addressing their relationship, Rich discussed their two-year journey on CBS Mornings, hinting at mutual support. When probed about marriage rumors, he playfully deflected, choosing to maintain privacy over personal matters.
The couple made their relationship public in July 2021, attending an NBA game together.
Adele has been spotted wearing a pear-shaped diamond ring on her left hand for about a year, dismissing it as mere high-end jewelry she enjoys. However, the recent engagement tells a different story.
Adele’s Plan to Return to the UK
In light of the engagement news, Adele reportedly intends to move back to the UK post her Las Vegas residency, wrapping up in November.
Despite co-owning a $58 million mansion in Beverly Hills with Rich Paul for two years, the songstress plans on reverting to her origins. Adele’s assistant, Rose Moon, has already made the move to the UK to facilitate Adele’s relocation.
A source mentioned, “It is part of a broader return to home, and once her Las Vegas shows conclude in November, she intends to return.”
The impending return of Adele to the UK reflects a significant change in both her personal and professional life. As she gears up for this transition, her evolving relationship with Rich Paul continues to captivate fans and the media.
