Adele might have many admirers, but She’s off the market—officially taken for good.
On Friday (August 9), at a concert in Munich, the Grammy-winning singer, 36, addressed a fan’s marriage proposal, appearing to confirm her rumored engagement to sports executive Rich Paul.
“I can’t marry you, I’m already getting married,’ Adele playfully told the fan while flaunting her left hand for added effect, as seen in a viral video. Though she wasn’t sporting a ring at the time, just last month, she was spotted in London with Paul wearing a pear-shaped diamond.
The fan’s failed proposal is just the latest twist in the ongoing saga of Adele and Rich Paul’s wedding speculation. As Adele put it to Elle in August 2022, ‘I’ve never been in love like this. I’m obsessed with him.’”
Earlier this year, the ‘Now and Then’ singer hinted at expanding her family with Rich Paul, telling guests at Caesars Palace she’s ready to trade stage lights for nursery nights.
“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. I feel like she might be like the person I love the most in the world, but also probably hate the most in the world. That is what I feel will happen. She’s going to put me in my place all the time, isn’t she?” she told the crowd.
“With me as her mother and Rich as her father, she’s going to be a bossy little queen, isn’t she?” she joked.
In June 2022, Paul, a sports agent widely known for working with NBA star LeBron James, dished about his interest in expanding his family.
“I was a very young dad, but now, different age, different time in my life, different position in my life,” Paul told E! News. “I’m really looking forward other being an older dad.”
