As always they ask for privacy. There will be no further comment.” Despite Adele’s superstardom – her second studio album, _21_, was the best-selling album in the world for two years in a row – she and her husband have kept their relationship quiet. It only became public that the couple had gotten married after Adele referred to her “husband” during the 2017 Grammys. The couple have a son, Angelo, who was born in 2012. The singer [told TIME in 2015](http://time.com/4155795/adele-time-cover-story-interview-motherhood-25/) that it was important to her to preserve her family’s privacy and not let her life be ruled by her fame. “It’s as normal a life as I can have,” said Adele. “I think people would be pretty surprised. When I’m not doing a photo shoot, it’s just me, my boyfriend and the baby.” In December 2016, she opened up about their relationship to [Vanity Fair](https://www.vanityfair.com/culture/2016/10/adele-cover-story), saying that the couple’s age gap actually strengthened their relationship. Konecki is 14 years her senior. “When I try to describe this to my friends they don’t always get it, because they go out with people that are our age, but Simon is already who he is, and I’m still becoming who I’m going to be. He’s confident. He’s perfect,” Adele said. Konecki is the cofounder of Life Water, a premium bottle water company, and is the CEO of the charity drop4drop.
