Adele To Pay Ex-husband, Simon Konecki Half Of Her Over £140 Million Fortune To Finalize Divorce
Popular British singer and songwriter, Adele could part with half of her over £180 million fortune after she reportedly won her request to have her divorce proceedings with ex-husband, Simon Konecki kept private.
The multiple award-winning singer split from her philanthropist and charity entrepreneur husband April 2019 after eight years of marriage that produced their seven-year-old son, Angelo.
It was gathered that a judge in Los Angeles reportedly granted the 31-year-old singer her request to ensure their divorce settlement is not made public, Metro UK reports.
This means ‘financial, sales or other confidential business information’ will be kept under wraps and those who require access to those details will likely have to sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA)
According to a report by The Sun, a source said the decision was made because the couple are committed to keeping the details as private as possible for the sake of their son, adding that;
They are trying to work out their issues. Hollywood divorces can drag on for years and become extremely ugly. Adele and Simon clearly don’t want that.
Adele filed for divorce in September citing irreconcilable differences and requested joint custody of Angelo, stating they (the former couple) are on the same page about co-parenting.
Reports say she has been romantically linked to Grime music artist Skepta.
46-year-old Simon also agreed that all financial issues surrounding the end of the couple’s marriage should be handled ‘in private mediation’, according to legal documents obtained by The Blast.
It has been widely reported that the pair did not have a prenup (an agreement made between two people before marrying that establishes rights to property and support in the event of divorce or death) and could split the $180 million (£144 million) fortune in half for divorce settlement.
This spilt of fortune has sparked varying conversations on micro-blogging platform, Twitter as users evaluate the couples’ decision to keep court proceeding secret.
I’m concerned for Adele’s ex husband.
She filed for divorce, the emotional trauma is too much for the poor man, $140M is not enough.
All poor Simon wanted to do was love & adore his superstar queen but now see him going through emotional torture😭
Women will break your heart💔

Jeff Bezos paid his wife $35 Billion after their divorce.
Roman Abramovich’s divorce cost him about $370 Million
Alec Wildenstein paid his ex wife Jocelyn Wildenstein, $3.8 billion as at 1999 when they divorced.
Let Adele pay up abeg, she can set fire to the rain after.

Some women are saying if Adele’s husband has any shame he’ll ask them to cut the settlement in half.
If it were to be the other way round, these same set of jezebels will be shouting “yass Queen. Secure the bag”
Pls let my KING secure his bag.
Aunty Adele savings or current?

Roman lost over a billion pounds cos divorce.
Jezz Bezos lost $38billion cos divorce.
Mel Gibson lost $425M…half of his net worth cos divorce.

Woke up to news of Adele’s divorce, her ex husband getting $140M out of her total $182m net worth, and women calling the man irresponsible. Lmaoo!
-• Adele has been married for over 5years to Simon Konecki without a signed prenup.
-• Adele filed for this divorce.— Cross˚ (@Elcrucifixio) April 6, 2020
So it’s cool for Jeff bezos to give his ex 30 billion and all other men, but for Adele to give 140m it’s an atrocity and not cool?
So now that the tables have turned y’all mad. I see. Get that bag king….

Really happy for Adele’s husband. At least he gets some reward for supporting her career and being a stay-at-home husband all these years. He deserves every dime of that money and even more.

Jeff Bezos paid his ex $38B after their divorce, Eboue lost everything to divorce
When all these things happened there was no faux outrage, Adele is to pay £140m to her ex and people no longer believe in equality
Adele should arrange herself and do the transfer, she’ll be fine

Adele networth is 190M, her husband is collecting 140M to settle divorce 😂😂
She would be fine, a lot of men have gone through this and they didn’t die, she should go and ask Tiger Woods

Adele husband deserve that good life, he gave 8 years of his life to her, supported her career, talent and helped her climbed all the way to the top..
As a king he deserve to cruise on an island in fiji, Croatia or Maldives with elite models babes and the $130M he worked for.
