Adele had already touched hysterical heights of fame a decade back. With her string of chart-topping hits like "Skyfall" and "Rolling in the Deep," her mezzo-soprano pitch had won over critics at the Grammys, Oscars, and Golden Globes, as well as amassed a global army of devotees, all by 2013. She even managed to squeeze in a break between her consistently thriving career, only to return with new musical records and newer sensations like "Hello." Her fresh music seemed to be a revelation, as much to herself as to her audience. "I was very sad and very lonely. Regardless of being a mom or a girlfriend, I didn't want to feel like that again," she told i-D Vice, talking about her older work.
Besides her flourishing career, Adele's personal life also buzzed with activity. She got into a short-lived marriage with her long-time partner Simon Konecki, with whom she has a son. "After going through a divorce, my requirements are sky-high. There's a very big pair of shoes to fill," she told Vogue, detectably surer about her independence and happiness. Not just emotionally, Adele also transformed physically during this period, surprising fans with a slim silhouette as seen in her birthday picture from 2020 that went viral. The process of losing about 100 pounds was driven by her anxiety. "Working out, I would just feel better. It was never about losing weight," she said, confessing to becoming somewhat of a fitness nut capable of working out thrice a day.
