Script

Adele is an icon. It’s hard to argue with that, and while her musical stylings have grown over the years, so too has her personal life – and her image –evolved. Let’s take a look at Adele’s head turning transformation. For better or for worse, a divorce can change you, and Adele is no exception to this fact.

“We start with some new about – Adele. The singing superstar and her husband, Simon…Konecki. Thank you! Sorry Adele, but you don’t care. You’ve separated.”

Though it seemed for a while that Adele’s heart was carefully safeguarded- after all, she was happily married to her husband Simon Konecki. The marriage came to an end in April 2019 when Adele officially filed for divorce. According to People magazine, this came after 5 months of separation, putting an end to their seven- year relationship. Adele’s representatives said in a statement, ‘Adele and her partner have separated. They are committed to raising their son together lovingly. As always, they ask for privacy. 

As for how Adele processed the severance the only clue is a post on her Instagram page with a sad picture of herself on the left and an empowered snap on the right. The caption QUOTE, ‘When you catch yourself in your feelings then remember who you are. 

In other words, Boy, bye.
