It was a big night for the couple, who made their Grammys debut as a couple and grinned widely throughout the evening.

Adele confirmed her relationship with Rich in September, 2021, following her divorce from ex-husband Simon in 2019.

Although the musician and sports agent have been spotted together on nights out and taking in the odd basketball game, the couple have managed to keep their romance firmly behind closed doors.

Adele and Rich started dating in 2021


She shed a tiny speck of light on their time together during a chat with Elle Magazine last year, discussing their future.

‘I’ve never been in love like this,’ she told the publication. ‘I’m obsessed with him.’

When asked if she wants to get married again, Adele didn’t hesitate to say yes: ‘Yes, absolutely.’

’Well! Well. Well, I’m not married,’ she said of recent engagement rumors. ‘I’m not married.

‘I’m just in loooove! I’m happy as I’ll ever be. I might as well be married.’

Clarifying their status, she added: ‘I’m not engaged. I just love high-end jewelry, boy!’
