Adele and her fiancé Rich Paul were seen in a rare outing sitting court side at an NBA game recently.

The singer, 36, and her sports agent partner posed for a photo during the game between the Dallas Mavericks and the LA Clippers on April 5 at Intuit Dome in Los Angeles, California.

The Grammy-winner looked effortlessly chic in a denim-sleeved coat and soft glame.

Rich wore all black, including a cap, cutting a casual figure.

Late last year Adele completed her residency in Las Vegas after two years and has largely stayed out of the public eye since.

The Hello hitmaker became tearful as she bowed out of Caesars Palace for the final time, marking 100 Weekends With Adele shows in the 4,000-capacity venue.

Addressing the crowd, Adele admitted that she ‘doesn’t know’ when they can expect to see her back on stage.

It comes after she shared plans earlier in 2024 to take a ‘big break’ from music.

‘I’m so sad this residency is over, but I am so glad that it happened; I really, really am,’ she said.

‘I will miss it terribly. I will miss you terribly. I don’t know when I next want to perform again,’ Adele confessed.

The singer also confirmed her engagement to Paul during one of her residency shows.

Rumours have been flying about the couple’s relationship status since they got together in 2021, especially as Adele had previously flippantly referred to Rich  as her ‘husband’ and has also been seen flaunting jewellery that resembled an engagement ring.

But during one of her shows the Someone Like You hitmaker – who has dropped major hints about wanting another child – told the crowd they are ‘getting married.’

While on stage in Munich, Germany, Adele responded to an audience member who desperately wanted her hand in marriage.

‘Will you marry me?’ their sign read.

Adele replied: ‘I can’t marry you because I’m already getting married.’

The packed crowd quickly erupted into cheers as Adele lifted up her hand to showcase her dazzling ring.

Swiftly moving on, the star kindly added that she ‘appreciated’ the offer.

Now, it seems Adele and Paul are still going strong, even as Adele steps back from music for awhile.
