AceShowbiz - Adele stepped out on a rare date night amid her indefinite music hiatus. The Grammy-winning singer was seen courtside at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles with her fiance, Rich Paul.
The couple, who have been dating since 2021, appeared to be in good spirits despite the Lakers' 95 to 117 loss. Wearing a stylish gray button-up and matching pants accessorized with a tan jacket and gold jewelry, Adele, 36, effortlessly pulled off a chic yet relaxed look. Rich Paul, a 44-year-old sports agent, complemented her casual style with a black long-sleeved shirt and a white baseball cap.
As the night unfolded, the couple was deeply engrossed in the game, chatting animatedly and leaning into each other. Adele took moments to warmly greet other attendees, showing her friendly and approachable side. They were also photographed speaking to other revelers, who seemed delighted by their presence.
Adele has been staying low key since wrapping up her residency shows in Las Vegas and Germany. During her emotional farewell in the Sin City, she told fans, "I will not see you for an incredibly long time, and I will hold you dear in my heart for that whole length of my break. I have spent the last seven years building a new life for myself, and I want to live it now."
The couple has also kept their relationship mostly private although they are often seen supporting the Lakers at sporting events. Their engagement was confirmed in August 2024 after months of speculation. Adele humorously confirmed the news in Germany, responding to a fan's proposal with, "I can't marry you because I'm already getting married," while flashing her engagement ring.
Adele's relationship with Rich is her first since her divorce from Simon Konecki, with whom she shares an 11-year-old son, Angelo. Rich, who has three children from a previous relationship, has been a pillar of support for Adele, especially noted during her final Vegas residency shows.
The songstress has expressed her desire to expand her family, "Once I am done with all my obligations and all of my shows, I want to have a baby. I want a girl because I've already got a boy.”
For now, Adele seems to be relishing her downtime, enjoying life's simple pleasures like a night out at a basketball game with her loved one. Their casual yet glamorous appearance reminds fans that even superstars cherish these everyday moments of joy and companionship.
