Adele is officially divorced. On Thursday, a judge finally signed off on the agreement that Adele reached with her ex, Simon Konecki.
The settlement will be kept confidential, which Adele demanded in the divorce negotiations. An insider revealed, (quote) “Hollywood divorces can become extremely ugly. Adele and Simon clearly did not want that.”
Adele married Simon without a prenup. Her $170 million estate was at risk when she filed for divorce. We may never learn how much she gave Simon to go away.
They share custody of their 8-year-old son, Angelo. Simon reportedly lives in a Beverly Hills mansion she bought him for nearly $9 million. (Us Weekly)
