After months of captivating and emotional performances, Adele has announced that she will be taking a much-needed break from music. The renowned singer recently wrapped up her residency in Germany, where she left her devoted fans with a bittersweet goodbye and a warning that she would be away for "an incredibly long time". This news comes shortly after Adele's engagement to her partner, Rich Paul, last month.
Adele's residency in Munich was nothing short of a massive success, with a specially-built arena filled to capacity with 80,000 fans each night. Prior to the summer shows, the 36-year-old had hinted at taking a "big break", but now she has clarified exactly what that means. In an emotional moment during her final Las Vegas residency show, which had been postponed due to illness, Adele announced to the crowd that this would be her last performance for a while.
Tearing up, she expressed her gratitude to the audience and all those who have attended her shows over the past three years. "I'm not the most comfortable performer, but I am very f****** good at it," she confessed. "I've really enjoyed performing for nearly three years now, which is the longest I've ever done, and probably the longest I would ever do." Adele went on to explain that she had 10 more shows to complete in her Las Vegas residency, which were postponed due to her illness, before she would say goodbye to her fans.
In February, Adele had to postpone five weeks of her Vegas shows to allow her vocal cords to heal and to regain her full health. However, she is now thrilled that she has more shows to look forward to, with weekends and a total of 10 remaining performances. After that, she will be taking an extended break from the spotlight to focus on her personal life. "I will not see you for an incredibly long time," she told the crowd, "but I will hold you dear in my heart for the whole of my break."
Adele also took the opportunity to confirm her engagement to Rich Paul, whom she has been dating for a while now. She began her speech by thanking the audience and anyone who has attended her shows over the years. She then tearfully admitted, "I just need a rest and I have spent the last seven years building a new life for myself, and I want to live it now, I want to live my new life that I've been building."
The talented singer, known for taking long breaks between albums, has been living in the US for some time now, focusing on her personal life and "building a new life" with her partner Rich, who works as a sports agent. Rich is the founder of Klutch Sports Group, which represents some of the biggest names in basketball, including LeBron James, Anthony Davis, and John Wall. After months of speculation, Adele finally confirmed their engagement by showing off her stunning ring on stage in Munich.
Fans can catch Adele's final shows this November at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace, where she will conclude her residency. Her last performance in the UK was at the British Summer Time festival in Hyde Park in July 2022. As Adele takes a well-deserved break, her devoted fans eagerly await her return to the stage.
