After two years of dating, fans suspect Adele and Rich Paul might have tied the knot in secret.
The singer herself set the rumour mill going when an audience member at her recent residency show in Las Vegas asked if they could marry her.
“You can’t marry me, I’m straight, my love. And my husband’s here tonight. He’s here,” she quipped.
When the fan jokingly asked if she could try being with her, Adele said, “Oh no, I don’t want to try. I’m with Rich.”

The singer told Elle last year that she wanted to get married again.
She divorced her ex, Simon Konecki, with whom she has a son, Angelo (10), in 2019.
“Yes, absolutely,” she said when she was asked if she wanted to get married again.
Asked if she was engaged, she said, “I’m not married. I’m just in loooove! I’m happy as I’ll ever be. I might as well be married.”
Rich, a sports agent, has three children from a previous relationship, and like Adele has said, he's open to being a parent again.
Adele (35) and Rich (41) went public with their relationship in July 2021 and appeared to be getting closer to getting hitched last year, when they splashed out a whopping $58 million (R1,1bn) on a new home in Beverly Hills.
And last year when Adele posted an image of her Emmy for her One Night Only concert special on her coffee table, eagle-eyed fans noticed a custom Rummikub game set that read “The Paul's", setting off speculation that it was a wedding gift.
However, chances of the public being told about changes to Adele and Rich's relationship status are slim at best.
When Adele wore a beautiful diamond ring on her ring finger at the 2022 Brit Awards, she was asked if she and Rich were engaged, she replied, “If I was, would I ever tell anyone if I was or wasn’t?"
The singer told Elle she's "never been in love like this. I'm obsessed with Rich. I’d absolutely consider remarrying.
“I want more kids. I'm a homemaker and I'm a matriarch and a stable life helps me with my music.”
