Adele and Simon Split<\/h2>\n
Adele and Simon<\/a> married in secret in 2018, but they split up in April 2019.<\/a> Months after their separation, the “Hello” singer filed for divorce<\/a> in September. Their divorce was finalized in 2021. Adele admitted that they were “overdue” to split<\/a> in a 2021 interview with\u00a0Heart Radio.\u00a0<\/em>“The more and more you put it off, the worse and worse it gets and I had been putting it off anyway for years before, and so now I am chilled as anything,” she said.<\/p>\n After the divorce, Adele has spoken about their breakup<\/a> a few times. She admitted to feeling a bit lost in a\u00a0Rolling Stone<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>profile in November 2021. “I didn’t really know myself,” she told the outlet. \u201cI thought I did. I don\u2019t 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\u2019t like who I was.”<\/p>\n Adele also mentioned the “Saturn return” and spoke about the reason why they split in a November 2021 Vogue<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>cover story. “Neither of us did anything wrong. Neither of us hurt each other or anything like that. It was just: I want my son to see me really love, and be loved. It\u2019s really important to me,” she said.<\/p>\n In the\u00a0Rolling Stone\u00a0<\/em>interview, she opened up about how hard it was to go through a public split. “It made me really sad,\u201d she said. “Then having so many people that I don\u2019t know\u00a0know<\/em> that I didn\u2019t make that work \u2026 it f**king devastated me. I was embarrassed. No one made me feel embarrassed, but you feel like you didn\u2019t do a good job.”<\/p>\n Despite the breakup, Adele and Simon seem like they’re still on good terms. They co-parent Angelo together, and the singer opened up about some of the difficulties of co-parenting in a 2021 interview<\/a> with\u00a0Oprah Winfrey.\u00a0<\/strong>“It was just exhausting trying to keep going with it. It\u2019s a process. The process of divorce, the process of begin a single parent, the process of not seeing your child every single day wasn\u2019t really a plan I had when I became a mum,” she said.<\/p>\n At the time, Adele explained that she still made sure to show her son that she still loved his dad, even if she wasn’t “in love” with him anymore. She also said that they lived across the street from one another, and she still had many kind words to say about him. “Even now, I trust him with my life… Him and Angelo, they were angels sent to me. That’s how I feel,” she said.<\/p>\n Shortly after the divorce was finalized, the singer began dating sports agent\u00a0<\/a>Rich Paul,<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>and the pair even cutely<\/a> refer to each other as “husband” and “wife.<\/a>” It seems like Simon and his ex’s new boyfriend get along well, as they were spotted together<\/a> at Adele’s London concert in July 2022.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It’s been two years since the ‘Rolling in the Deep’ singer’s divorce was finalized.
