Engagement to Rich Paul
Since last year, Adele has been engaged to Rich Paul. Can someone please add that under Partner in the info box ? 76.64.181.63 (talk) 05:33, 13 January 2024 (UTC)
- Partner parameter is for longterm unmarried life partners. Plus there are conflicting sources on their relationship, so until they confirm it themselves with a reliable source theres no rush to add it LADY LOTUS • TALK 16:42, 13 January 2024 (UTC)
- Looks like they both are going strong according to this article: https://www.harpersbazaar.com/celebrity/latest/a40898342/adele-rich-paul-full-relationship-timeline/ Jurisdicta (talk) 04:11, 5 May 2024 (UTC)

I think pop and soul are the infobox's most relevant and prevailing genres. Contemporary R&B [33] should be removed. Oroborvs (talk) 17:27, 10 March 2024 (UTC)
American accent?
Would it be possible to explain why she seems to have an American accent when she sings, but not when she talks? I can find no mention of this in the Voice section Paul Magnussen (talk) 06:44, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
