How old is Adele?
Adele Adkins was born on May 5, 1988, which makes her 35 years old. She was born in Tottenham, London. Her mom, Penny Adkins, is English, and her dad, Marc Evans, is Welsh. When Adele was 2, her dad left and she was raised by her mom. She started singing at four and loved listening to different voices.
By 1997, when Adele was 9, she and her mom moved to Brighton, where her mom had a job making furniture and organizing adult learning activities. In 1999, they went back to London, first to Brixton and then to West Norwood. Her first song, "Hometown Glory," is about West Norwood.
She graduated from the BRIT School in Croydon in May 2006 alongside classmates like Leona Lewis and Jessie J. Although she originally wanted a career in artists and repertoire (A&R) to help others, the school played a crucial role in developing her own talent.
Who is Adele married to?
Adele Laurie Blue Adkins is married to Rich Paul. They have been together since 2021. They tied the knot with each other in 2023. Rich Paul, born on December 16, 1981, is an American sports agent and the creator of Klutch Sports Group. He's known as a close friend and representative of NBA star LeBron James, and many consider him one of the most influential sports agents.
Paul's early years were spent in a one-bedroom apartment above his father's store, R & J Confectionery, in Glenville, a neighborhood on the east side of Cleveland. Despite the modest living, his father ensured he attended Benedictine High School, a private Roman Catholic school. Unfortunately, Paul's father passed away from cancer in 1999.
After finishing high school, Paul learned about selling vintage jerseys with guidance from Andy Hyman, the owner of Distant Replays. He used to buy throwback jerseys from Atlanta and sell them from his trunk in Cleveland. In 2002, he met LeBron James at the Akron-Canton Airport, impressing him with an authentic Warren Moon throwback jersey. This led to a friendship and business relationship, with Paul selling James jerseys like Magic Johnson Lakers and Joe Namath Rams.
