LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Adele and her boyfriend Rich Paul have worked out the kinks in their year-and-a-half relationship and their bond is now stronger than ever. According to a source, the 34-year-old Grammy winner and the 41-year-old sports agent are currently "in a good place," following a rough patch. According to the insider, Paul has been traveling to Las Vegas, where Adele resides.

“They steal precious time together, and when they’re apart they’re in constant contact,” the source told RadarOnline. The 'Easy On Me' hitmaker fueled engagement rumors at the BRIT Awards in February when she was photographed wearing a large diamond ring on her finger. However, by May, rumors of their separation were circulating after Rich missed the singer's 34th birthday. The couple then spent the summer having romantic dinners and taking a luxurious trip to Italy before the singer said on stage in December that she had "never been in love like this" and was "crazy" with Rich. She then asked the large Vegas crowd to sing Rich a happy birthday. "I love him more than life itself," exclaimed the 'Hello' singer.

Rich, a father of three, concurred that he is "looking forward" to the possibility of starting over as a parent. Rich said in an interview with E! News, he was ready to have more children in the future and that he would adopt a new parenting style as a result of reflecting on his past fatherhood experience. On the other hand, Adele, who has a 10-year-old son named Angelo with her ex-husband Simon Konecki, stated that she "absolutely wants[s] more kids." A source added, “Things are going so great between them, their friends think 2023 could be the year they make it happen.”

As per RadarOnline, Adele reportedly urged her fiancé Rich Paul to get married in Las Vegas last year. “If Adele had her way they’d be married already,” said a source.“She’s begged Rich to elope on countless occasions and now has set her heart on doing it in Las Vegas sooner than later. He’s happy with the way things are for now, wanting to get through the holidays and dealing with formalities including the prenup,” the source added. “Rich would prefer to take more time,” said the insider. “But at the end of the day, Adele’s the boss and gets what she wants,” the insider added.

Adele and Paul made their relationship public at the NBA Game 5 Finals between the Milwaukee Bucks and the Phoenix Suns on July 17, 2021.
