Adele, the British superstar, was spotted making a rare public appearance with her fiancé, Rich Paul, at a high-profile NBA game in Los Angeles.
The couple turned heads as they sat courtside to watch the LA Lakers take on the Minnesota Timberwolves.
ADELE’S STYLE DETAILS
Adele, 36, looked effortlessly stylish in a grey co-ord, set off with a gold necklace and watch—accessories that would fetch a cool R40,000 combined.
Her signature blonde hair was worn straight, and she kept her makeup minimal. She opted for a nude lip that highlighted her natural beauty.
Rich Paul, 44 is one of the NBA’s top sports agents. He matched her laid-back vibe in a white baseball cap and black jumper, his look completed by sparkling silver earrings.
ADELE AND RICH PAUL
The couple’s chemistry was obvious as they cheered from the front row, according to Daily Mail.
“Thank you for always bigging me up and making me feel like I could do whatever I wanted to do,” Adele recently said of Paul.
She acknowledged his support as she wrapped up her Las Vegas residency—a show that grossed over R2.5 billion.
CELEBRITY ROMANCE
Their romance began in 2021, after meeting at a mutual friend’s birthday party. Adele has described their relationship as deeply supportive and transformative.
The singer reflected on her decision to end her marriage to Simon Konecki, with whom she shares a 12-year-old son.
ADELE’S ENGAGEMENT
Adele and Paul announced their engagement in August last year, with Adele flashing a diamond ring worth an estimated R9 million.
People have spotted the couple at several high-profile sporting events, but Adele now focuses on family and personal happiness.
She said on stage, “Once I finish all my obligations and all of my shows, I want to have a baby.
TAKING A BREAK
“I want a girl because I’ve already got a boy. She’s going to be a bossy little queen, isn’t she?” Rich Paul, originally from Ohio, has three children from a previous relationship.
Together, he and Adele seem to have found a balance between their demanding careers and private lives.
As Adele continues her indefinite break from music, fans in Mzansi and beyond will be watching closely, hoping for new music, but happy to see her thriving, both on and off the stage.
