Sports agent, Rich Paul finally responds to rumours he and Adele are married after she referred to him as her ‘husband’ on stage

American sports agent, Rich Paul has responded to rumours he and Adele are married after she recently referred to him as her ‘husband’ during her show in Las Vegas.

The sports agent, 41, told how he and Adele, 35, have ‘helped each other’ during their two-year relationship. 

Appearing on CBS Mornings on Monday, Rich said of his partner: ‘She’s been great, I think she would agree that we definitely helped each other.

‘I’m in a good space, we’re in a good space. Happy. She’s superb. She’s been great for me. We’ve been great for each other.’

Rich was then asked by CBS host Gayle King about the rumours he and Adele have tied the knot.

The journalist asked whether she should refer to Adele as ‘Mrs. Paul’ the next time she speaks to her.

Richard played coy, saying: ‘You can say whatever you want,’ before adding he is not the ‘type of person to put [his] personal life. It’s not for the media.’

It comes after Adele called Rich her husband during her Las Vegas concert in September, sparking speculation that the two have tied the knot.

A woman in the audience screamed out ‘Will you marry me,’ to the Rumor Has It singer during the show, as seen in a TikTok clip. 

‘You can’t marry me. I’m straight, my love, and my husband’s here tonight,’ Adele replied.

The fan responded, ‘Can you try?’ and Adele clapped back, ‘No, I don’t want to try. I’m with Rich. You’re crazy, leave me alone.

The couple first went public with their relationship in July 2021 when they were seated courtside together at an NBA game.

The Grammy winner has been wearing a pear-shaped diamond ring on her left ring finger for about a year.

In the past when asked about it, she commented that it wasn’t an engagement ring, she simply likes high-end jewelry.

She met LeBron James’ agent on the dance floor at a mutual friend’s birthday party.

She has frequently praised her boyfriend and called their relationship the easiest one she’d ever been in during an interview with Rolling Stone.

 ‘He’s just hilarious. Oh, he’s so funny, he’s hilarious, yeah. And very smart. You know, he’s very, very smart. It’s quite incredible watching him do what he does,’ she said about Paul on CBS in 2021. 

‘It’s just timing. But it’d be interesting to see what my reaction is like in general to anything that hurts me now that I feel so secure in myself, and I’m talking outside of romance as well.’

Adele has a 10-year-old son, Angelo, from her three year marriage to Simon Konecki.

She told the audience that she was ‘ready to be a mom again soon.’

‘I really want to be a mom again soon,’ Adele said during a sweet exchange with someone in the audience.

The I Drink Wine singer then admitted she’s been ‘writing lists’ of names. 

‘So every time I see a name that I like, I write it down in my phone.’
