Adele Files for Divorce Following separation from Husband

Five months after their separation, Adele has filed for divorce from her husband Simon Konecki, with whom she shares a son.

The singing superstar, 31, announced back in April that she and entrepreneur Simon had split. Now divorce proceedings are officially underway.

When separating, a statement read that the pair are “committed to raising their son together lovingly. As always they ask for privacy.” Their child, Angelo, was born in 2012.

The British singer has not directly commented on the split since, though did make reference to it in an Instagram post where she posted a meme of herself, featuring a tearful picture alongside a triumphant pose with the caption: “When you catch yourself in your feelings then you remember who you are.”

In another post for her 31st birthday she wrote: “30 tried me so hard but I’m owning it and trying my hardest to lean in to it all.”

Even though a source close to Adele has described her year as ‘difficult’ (go figure), they also told People that she’s feeling ‘perky as hell’.
