Adele is head over heels in love with boyfriend Rich Paul, and one year into their romance, they two are already working toward their future together.
"Beyond," the singer said of her feelings for Paul in a new interview with ELLE. "I've never been in love like this. I'm obsessed with him."
Adele and the sports agent had been friends for some time, but their relationship became romantic in 2021, and they have since been spotted out together at NBA games, star-studded events around the world, as well as on Adele's Instagram.

In May, the "Someone Like You" singer turned 34 and celebrated both her one-year anniversary with Paul and the purchase of a Beverly Hills mansion (formerly owned by Sylvester Stallone), in which she will live with Paul and their blended family.

Adele is mom to son Angelo Adkins with ex-husband Simon Konecki, from whom she split in 2019. Paul, meanwhile, is a father to three children, including a daughter in college. Adele told the magazine the two are renovating their home to accommodate all their kids—plus the ones they may have in the future. "I definitely want more kids," Adele said. "I'm a homemaker and I'm a matriarch, and a stable life helps me with my music."
Though Adele admitted she had a difficult couple years after splitting from Konecki, and learning to be alone and co-parent—during the COVID-19 pandemic, no less—she said she has since found the kind of joy, safety, and freedom she had always wanted with Paul, and is ready for the next step.
When asked if she wants to get married again, she told ELLE, "Yes, absolutely." She and Paul are not engaged or secretly married, she clarified, but they "might as well be." She added, "I'm not married. I'm not married! I'm just in loooove! I'm happy as I'll ever be."
