What Led To Adele And Simon Konecki’s Divorce?
Adele has claimed that the process of ending her marriage was not at all contentious, despite the fact that some of the songs on her album ‘30‘ may give the impression that her divorce was fraught with bitterness. Its third tune, ‘My Little Love,‘ even features a voice note from Adele as she attempts to explain to her kid why she parted ways with his father.
As Adele is now a single parent to her son Angelo, who is nine years old, a significant portion of the album is devoted to examining complicated feelings. These are associated with parenting and relationships. Adele’s separation from Simon Konecki also ranks high on the subject material list. However, the reality behind the divorce is far from these albums.
Adele has clarified that she took the decision only because she was unhappy. She further defended Simon by stating that no one can be blamed. Simon and Adele’s divorce was mutual and they both are on good terms even after the split. The couple has come to an agreement that will see them share joint custody of their son Angelo.
