Adele’s relationship ‘on the rocks’ and is ‘real reason’ she cancelled gigs after breaking down in tears in rehearsals

ADELE’s relationship with Rich Paul is reportedly on the rocks – and that’s why she cancelled her Las Vegas Residency.

According to the New York Daily News, the superstar singer interrupted rehearsals to take calls from her boyfriend and was seen breaking down in tears.

Adele broke down in tears in rehearsals, according to reports

An inside source said: “There’s trouble in paradise. That’s why she can’t perform.”

The American sports agent, 40, started dating Adele in early 2021 and went official on Instagram in September.

Throughout their relationship, the couple had previously only been spotted out a handful of times.

It’s Adele’s first public relationship since her divorce from Simon Konecki was finalised in March 2021.

The 33-year-old devastated fans by cancelling Las Vegas residency 24 hours before the gig.

The Sun revealed she launched into a furious rant over a swimming pool stunt planned for the big-money shows before calling it off.

The Brit was supposed to stand in the middle of one while belting out her hits — but likened the final design to an “old pond” and refused.

The Londoner, 33, tearfully cancelled her three-month run of concerts at Caesars Palace last week just 24 hours before they were due to begin.

And she has now pulled out of her planned performance at the Brits live at London’s O2 Arena.

Brits bosses are scrambling to make alternative arrangements for the ceremony on February 8.

A source said yesterday: “Adele was confirmed to perform on the night, but has now pulled out — which has been a massive blow for the organisers.

“They are talking to her team to see if she can appear by videolink.

“It’s a massive headache but they want her involved in any way she will agree.

“They also now have to find someone to accept her awards — should she win.

“And several big names have already said no.

“Names already mentioned include Sam Smith, and even Ed Sheeran and Dua Lipa — who are both up against Adele for awards — but they are all looking unlikely. They have also made an approach to Stormzy, in the hope that they can persuade him.”
