Adele Reaches Settlement In Divorce From Simon Konecki, Two Years After Split

Adele has reached a divorce settlement with her estranged husband Simon Konecki, almost two years after they separated.

The singer announced she had split from the charity boss in April 2019. They married in 2016.

Adele, who has a reported net worth of £138m, filed for divorce in September 2019 in Los Angeles, and court records show she filed a judgment packet earlier this month.
