Adele’s new album ‘WON’T focus on her divorce from husband Simon Konecki out of respect for their 8-year-old son Angelo’… as new music is expected to have ‘a different sound’
- Adele and Simon announced their separation in April 2019 and Adele filed for divorce five months later
- The pair will share custody of their son Angelo, eight
- It was recently reported that Adele was forced to use mediators to split up her £140 million fortune during her divorce from Simon
Adele’s highly-anticipated fourth studio album reportedly won’t be about heartbreak – or her divorce from Simon Konecki.
The yet-to-be-titled album – her first in six years and expected to be released in 2021 – is said to have ‘a different sound’ to her previous endevours, which have typically been about romance and break-ups.
A source told The Sun this weekend: ‘Heartbreak has helped Adele shift records over the years but this split is quite different.

‘They’re both aware their son Angelo should be protected and that’s why Adele has agreed not to sing about their relationship.
‘Her new album will have a different sound anyway, so it hasn’t bothered her too much that Simon quietly expected her to keep their relationship out of her music.’
MailOnline has approached Adele’s rep for comment.
This comes after she was reportedly forced to use mediators to split up her £140 million fortune during her divorce from Simon.

The singer, 32, reportedly enlisted help to manage the terms of her settlement, which was finally filed earlier this month, two years after she split from the charity CEO.
It comes following reports that Adele and Simon had reached an agreement on dividing up her fortune two years after announcing they’d split following three years of marriage.
Sources told The Sun that despite Adele and Simon’s breakup originally staying amicable, they had to use mediators to agree certain terms to their settlement.

It’s thought a majority of the disputes stemmed from dividing up the Hello hitmaker’s vast fortune, after the couple agreed on joint custody of their son Angelo, eight.
A source said: ‘They made it very clear they didn’t want to set lawyers on each other but the process hasn’t been exactly straightforward all the same. The priority was making sure they did right by their son, Angelo.
‘The first thing they agreed on was sharing custody, and since then it has been about dividing up the rest of their marital finances fairly.

‘Fortunately they have managed to get there without an explosive public court case, slanging matches or scandalous claims about each other, and that gives them the best possible chance of staying on good terms in the future.’
MailOnline has contacted representatives for Adele for comment.
It was reported by Us Weekly on Thursday, that Adele and Simon the CEO of charity of Drop4Drop, filed the terms of their divorce settlement with the court on Friday, January 15.
Although Adele and Simon have finished their work to finalise the divorce, the marriage won’t officially be ended until the judge signs off on the paperwork.

But despite Adele’s mammoth fortune, earning £73k ($82k)-A-DAY in royalties alone, insiders claim there was never going to be a nasty fall-out with them over finances.
While not quite in the same league, former Etonian Simon has his own money and is reportedly worth around £2m ($2.7m) in his own right. It has been reported they did not even sign a pre-nuptial agreement before they wed.
After becoming a foreign exchange broker, Simon invested in his self built Broker association and then built Drop4Drop, a charity which funds sustainable clean water solutions to countries that need it most.
Adele and Simon announced they were going their separate ways in April 2019, with Adele filing court documents five months later.

Adele’s representative said in a statement in April 2019: ‘Adele and her partner have separated. They are committed to raising their son together lovingly. As always they ask for privacy. There will be no further comment.’
At the time they announced their separation, a source close to the couple claimed that their relationship had changed rapidly into a platonic arrangement.
They told US Weekly at the time: ‘Their relationship evolved and they became more like friends than lovers. They realized the romantic love was no longer there. They’re disappointed, but it just didn’t work out.’
The pair will share custody of their son Angelo, but ‘financial, sales or other confidential business information’ regarding the proceedings will not be publicly available.’
