HER CHEEKY PICK-UP LINE

ADELE’S new boyfriend is sports agent Rich Paul, 39, whose friendship with NBA legend LeBron James has helped him to an £80 million fortune. She said they met at a party a few years ago. It is thought Jay-Z and Beyonce introduced them. Adele added: ‘I was a bit drunk. I said, “Do you want to sign me? I’m an athlete now.” ’ The romance took off before her father Mark died in May this year. She said: ‘I’m a 33-year-old divorced mother of a son, who’s actually in charge. The last thing I need is someone who doesn’t know where they’re at, or what they want.’
