Adele and Skepta Spark Dating Rumors
Adele has a new man in her life.
After separating from husband Simon Konecki in April, the Grammy-winning singer, 31, is reportedly dating British rapper Skepta. Page Six reports that the two have been on several dates and celebrated Skepta’s 37th birthday in London last month.
“They’re spending more and more time together,” a source told The Sun. “Some of their friends are hoping and predicting they could end up being a great couple one day.”
In September, Adele filed for divorce from Konecki, the father of her 6-year-old son Angelo. Skepta, who previously dated Naomi Campbell, recently welcomed his daughter, River.
“They are both private about their love lives and they are both committed to their children first and foremost as well,” adds the source.
Prior to their rumored romance, Adele and the grime star were close friends. “Adele texts me all the time and keeps me in check. She speaks to me about how things are going,” Skepta told ES Magazine in 2016.
That same year, Adele expressed her love for Skepta on social media. “Tottenham Boy,” she tweeted with the heart emoji. Skepta responded with “Love you.”
