Adele and her man of eight years Simon Konecki announced their split on Friday.
We know this. We’ve mourned this, and now — we’re ready for the nitty-gritty divorce details. Call me insensitive, call me distasteful , whatever. I just friggen love Adele and just wanna know the deets about what our queen is feeling right now!
1. Adele and Simon share a baby boy Angelo, born in 2012, who they plan on co-parenting.
In their official statement to the Associated Press the pair announced “they are committed to raising their son together lovingly.”
2. Adele is so private she didn’t even confirm her marriage to Simon until 2017 during her Grammy acceptance speech.
After winning “Album Of The Year” at the 2017 Grammys, Adele sent shock waves across her fandom after referring to her long time BF as her husband, “Grammys, I appreciate it. The Academy, I love you. My manager, my husband and my son — you’re the only reason I do it.”
3. Simon, 44, is a co-founder of “Life Water,” an eco-friendly bottled water brand in the U.K
According to the Associated Press , “Funds from the company assists the charity that Konecki runs, Drop4Drop, which provides clean water to countries in need.”
So it would seem Simon is a hard worker, just like Adele!
In this Instagram picture, posted in March 22nd 2017 , Simon’s hands are seen in this picture of Adele, while Simon is wearing his “Drop4Drop” bracelets.
4. According to a source close to E! News, the couple fell out of love and simply grew apart.
It’s the tale as old as time. The source claims , “they had a lot in common early on, but eventually, they just grew apart. She became a bigger and bigger star, and he was okay [with] being in the background, but as she got bigger and had massive tours and intense schedules, they just grew apart.”
5. Adele has been hitting the studio, sans wedding ring, since last month.
Fans were ecstatic to see Adele back recording new music, but were wary when the songstress was spotted without that ring on her finger.
6. According to Forbes, no prenuptial agreement was signed with Adele and Simon wed, meaning there’s Adele’s net worth of $180 million on the table.
California law means Konecki may be entitled to up to half of the Adele’s earnings from the time they were married. Forbes also reports Adele has already gifted Simon a $600,000 property — a hopeful sign of an amicable split.
7. Adele told Vanity Fair back in December of 2016 that money has never been of huge importance to her.
She said , “I don’t care about money. I’m British, and we don’t have that . . . thing of having to earn more money all the time. I don’t come from money; it’s not that important a part of my life.”
Hopefully, this means her and Simon’s divorce will be as drama free as possible. We’re sending you a big hug, Adele!
