Adele has announced that she has split from her husband of three years, Simon Konecki. A statement from the star's representative read: "Adele and her partner have separated. They are committed to raising their son together lovingly. As always they ask for privacy." The couple married in 2016 after five years of dating, and welcomed their son, six-year-old Angelo, in 2012. The wedding was kept secret, with Adele only announcing the news at the 2017 Grammys when she thanked her new husband.
"I'm married! My husband, my son, you're the only reason I do it," she said at the time. She later spoke about the early days of falling in love to an Australian audience during a performance in March 2017, saying: "And I am addicted to that feeling. Obviously, I can not go through those feelings because I'm married now. I've found my next person."
