Adele Discuss Exercise, Romance and Friendships With Fans In LA Residency Show
Adele has shared that hiking helps her maintain her 100lbs weight loss. The 34-year-old singer shared a part of her health and fitness journey during her residency show in Las Vegas, revealing that she has enjoyed going on long walks since her health kick last year. And with her headphones in, she is simply unstoppable.
“Guess what I’ve started doing?” she asked the crowd while she was on stage. “I’ve started hiking. I really like it,” she shared.
The Rumor Has It star then went on to advise her live audience to cherish their friends more than their romantic partnerships. “I see so many groups of friends that come in here… loving an artist or a song. That’s how I became so close to some of my friends,” she said, taking a leaf from personal experience.
She explained that while falling out in relationships can be traumatic and can happen at any time, friends are for life. Hence, she believes that friends are “better than any man” or woman.
Adele made news regarding her size when she lost 100 pounds. This would be the second time she would speak on a combination of fitness and romance since then. In a 2021 tell-all about her divorce from Simon Konecki and new romance with Rich Paul, she revealed to Vogue that she was addicted to exercise. For her, exercise was not about losing weight but about building strength and paying attention to herself every day like she does her phone.
The Someone Like You hitmaker added that she worked out two to three times daily and that she had been doing vigorous weight-lifting and circuit-training sessions for up to three years. She doubled down on the sessions whenever her anxiety ran high.
Adele further discussed her separation from Simon, sharing that she “put herself first” and left him. The ex-couple announced their separation in April 2019. Five months later, Adele filed divorce papers.
On the aftermath of her divorce from Simon, she stated that she was embarrassed. “I was really embarrassed. That thing of not being able to make something work. We’ve been trained as women to keep trying, even by the movies we watched when we were little,” she shared.
Despite it breaking her heart at the time, she told Vogue that she finds how women are told to suck up to unhealthy relationships “interesting” now.
