Rumour had it that Adele is married, after all, the 28-year-old singer has been sporting a huge shiny rock on that finger for quite some time. Turns out, those rumours are true. After delivering an emotional acceptance speech at the 59th Annual Grammy Awards, Adele let it slip that she is in fact married to her boyfriend and baby daddy Simon Konecki.
As she went up the stage to accept the award for Album of the Year at the Grammys this year, she got emotional and said that she “can’t possibly accept the award”. While on her emotional rollercoaster about winning five Grammy Awards and paying her tribute to the late George Michael, Adele deemed her competitor Beyoncé’s album Lemonade more worthy of the award.

Thank you very much to everybody.” While everyone else was busy praising her for her tribute to Beyoncé and being so very brave and honest, others were busy dusting sand out of their ears to see if they heard her correctly. She referred to her boyfriend Konecki as her husband.
