Adele & Rich WEDDING & A BABY!

The singer is ready to become a mom (and a missus!) again.

The wedding buzz began in February when Adele showed up to the Brit Awards sporting an enormous diamond on that finger. Then in May, the rumors picked up steam as the singer posted a photo of her and her sports agent boyfriend,

Rich Paul, showing off the keys to the $58 million Beverly Hills mansion that she bought from Sylvester Stallone.

Now, after months of speculation, the 34-year-old — who divorced

Simon Konecki in 2021 — confirms in a new interview that she “absolutely” plans to get married again. And soon! Adele and Rich, 40, “are thinking about having the wedding at the end of December,” reveals a source close to the couple. “She wants to end the year with a bang. She loves the idea of having a winter wonderland wedding with a Christmas-y vibe to it.”

While the pair haven’t made a final decision on the location, they began scouting venues in July when they were in the U.K. for Adele’s Hyde Park Festival performances. “They toured Blenheim Palace [in Woodstock, Oxfordshire]; it’s a contender,” says the source. “There’s a chapel on the property where they can exchange their own handwritten vows. But there are several other options.”

After the wedding, Adele and Rich will blend their families and try for kids of their own. “I definitely want more kids,” she says. “I’m a homemaker, and I’m a matriarch, and a stable life helps me with my music.” ★
