Adele, the renowned British singer, shed light on her ongoing struggle with seasonal affective disorder (SAD), a form of depression that typically arises during winter months. Her move to Los Angeles in 2016, where she resides in a mansion worth $58 million, has been primarily attributed to her battle with SAD.
She expressed a fondness for the LA weather, which significantly alleviates her condition, stating, «I get really bad seasonal depression, so the weather is good for me here.» Despite her love for LA, Adele admitted to missing her British roots, confessing that her song "Hometown Glory" evokes strong emotions tied to her London upbringing. The track was inspired by her experience participating in a protest against Tony Blair's decision to engage in the Iraq war when she was 16 years old.
Adele also revealed her recent marriage to sports agent Rich Paul, highlighting the deep connection they share. However, even in their close bond, she humorously confessed one pet peeve — Paul listening to her music, something she finds irksome, stating, «I don't like it at all.»
