Adele spotted for first time with boyfriend Rich Paul in the UK since going public

Adele and boyfriend Rich Paul have made their debut UK public appearance.

The couple, who confirmed their romance earlier this year, have been spotted in the UK ahead of the singer's London Palladium gig next month.

Adele, 33, and her sports agent beau, 39, have been residing in Los Angeles but enjoyed the delights of the London restaurant scene on Wednesday night.

Accompanied by several members of the Easy On Me singer's entourage, the happy couple were pictured leaving Chinese restaurant Kai in Mayfair after touching down on British soil.

The mum-of-one looked her usual stylish self, sporting an all black ensemble for her evening out in the nation's capital city.

The star teamed a chic black blazer with a pair of wide-legged trousers and a pair of chunky black and white platform trainers.

Adele also ensured she followed safety guidance and concealed part of her face with a black facemask.

Her NBA agent boyfriend Rich also looked dapper for their evening out together.

The Klutch Sports Group founder wore a pair of red New Balance trainers and a matching jacket for his meal out.

Adele officially confirmer their relationship in her interview with Vogue last months after months of speculation.

"I just love being around him," she gushed.

"I just love it."

The happy couple were also recently snapped sitting courtside at a Los Angeles Lakers game at the Staples Centre in California.

Rich's work sees him represent the likes of basketball legend Lebron James and a number of other NBA stars.

Adele made things Instagram official for the pair back in September, when she shared a sweet black-and-white photo booth image on them both snuggled up a Anthony Davis' wedding.

The Tottenham-born star captioned the snaps with a love-heart emoji.

Prior to finding love with Rich, Adele was previously married to Simon Konecki, founder of an eco-friendly brand of bottled water.

The couple co-parent son Angelo, 9, together following their split in 2019.

Ahead of the release on her fourth studio, 30, Adele said she wrote the record to explain her divorce to her young son.

The Grammy award-winning artist also confessed her expectations for a partner are now "sky-high" following the split.

"I wanted to put it on the album to show Angelo what I expect [Angelo] to treat his partner like, whether it be a woman or a man or whatever," she told Vogue last month.

"After going through a divorce, my requirements are sky-high. There's a very big pair of shoes to fill."

The star added that "nothing bad happened" in her marriage, but "it just wasn't right."

"I didn't want to end up like a lot of other people I knew. I wasn't miserable miserable, but I would have been miserable had I not put myself first," she added.
