Adele left her fans surprised after her recent concert in Las Vegas, after seemingly revealing that she is already married to her romantic partner Rich Paul. The singer keeps proving that the pair are going strong in their relationship after two years of dating and recently revealed that they are even thinking about expanding their family, and have already been talking about potential baby names.

The 35-year-old Grammy winner had a brief conversation with a woman in the audience while saying hello to her fans. The excited fan asked Adele if she could marry her, to which she responded by talking about her “husband” Rich Paul. “You can’t marry me. I’m straight, my love, and my husband’s here tonight,” she said.

“Can you try?” the fan insisted, making Adele laugh and reply; “No, I don’t want to try. I’m with Rich. You’re crazy, leave me alone.” Following the viral interaction fans of the acclaimed musician took to social media to wonder about her relationship status, as she is known to keep her personal life private, and rarely shares details about her family and love life.
