Adele Responds to Rich Paul Breakup Rumors

Rumor has it that there’s trouble in paradise for Adele and Rich Paul.

According to Page Six, the “Easy on Me” singer and the powerhouse sports agent are in a “volatile” relationship, which allegedly contributed to the cancellation of her Las Vegas residency.

“She and Rich had been fighting, and their relationship was volatile before she canceled her dates,” says an insider.

The two have reportedly been trying to fix things, and Paul was helping her renegotiate her Vegas contract.

“Adele is very emotional and dramatic. He’s an NBA guy who has to go on the road — they are very different — and they hit a rough patch,” adds the source.

However, Adele is putting an end to the rumors that she and Paul’s months-long romance is on the rocks. On Tuesday (Feb. 1), she took to social media to set the record straight while announcing that she will be performing at the BRIT Awards on Feb. 8.

“Hiya, so I’m really happy to say that I am performing at the Brits next week!! Anddddd I’ll also be popping in to see Graham for a chat on the couch while I’m in town too! I’m looking forward to it!” she wrote before adding, “Oh, and Rich sends his love.”

A day before she was set to kick off her “Weekends With Adele” concerts at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace last month, Adele announced that her show wasn’t ready and would have to be postponed. In a tearful video, she apologized to fans.

“I’m so sorry, but my show ain’t ready,” she said. “We’ve tried absolutely everything that we can to put it together in time and for it to be good enough for you, but we’ve been absolutely destroyed by delivery delays and COVID. It’s been impossible to finish the show.”

There are reports that Adele was unhappy with the production and felt several elements “were not good enough.” She has yet to announce new dates.
