Adele is reportedly dating Grime artist Skepta following the breakdown of her marriage with Simon Konecki. Adele, 31, has apparently developed a romance with Skepta, 37, after enjoying a string of dates. But how did this unlikely pairing happen?
Relationship history
Skepta and Adele have been friends for years now. In 2016, Skepta said of Adele to ES Magazine: “Adele texts me all the time and keeps me in check. She speaks to me about how things are going.” Meanwhile, in the same year, Adele posted a picture of Skepta, writing: “Tottenham Boy” alongside a heart emoji.

Skepta revealed that Adele has been very supportive of him and encouraged him at a time when he felt like giving up on his music. He, in turn, has been a good friend and a confidant to Adele for over two years.

Joseph Junior Adenuga, popularly known as Skepta, has reportedly been single since ending his rumoured romance with model Naomi Campbell. Skepta also welcomed the arrival of his daughter, River, last November.
Adele has also gone through a big relationship change this year as she split from her husband of eight years, Simon Konecki, back in April. Last month, the “Hello” singer filed for divorce. The pair have agreed to joint custody and the gist making the rounds is that Adele and Simon did not sign a prenup.
Speaking to a tabloid about the pair’s rumoured romance, a source claimed, “Adele and Skepta have been there for each other a lot after both their relationships split up. They have a close bond and there’s definitely a special connection.”
The source went on to add, “Adele and Skepta are spending more and more time together. Some of their friends are hoping and predicting they could end up being a great couple one day.”
Adele reportedly celebrated Skepta’s 37th birthday with him two weeks ago.
However they choose to define their relationship, Adele and Skepta seem like a nice match. If and when they make their relationship official, Plat4om will be here to give you the full gist.
