It appears that Adele may be ready to add to her family and make her son a big brother. And with reports of her relationship with boyfriend Rich Paul going well and moving forward, having more kids isn't out of reach for the singer.

Wanting More Kids, and Grateful for Her Son

Adele shared that she "definitely" wants more kids during a recent appearance on BBC Sounds' "Desert Island Discs" podcast. "I definitely would like a couple more kids. It would be wonderful. If not, I've got Angelo," she said. Adele is mom to Angelo, 9, with ex-husband Simon Konecki, and said while she wants to add to her family, she's incredibly grateful to be his mom.

Divorcing and Moving Forward

Adele and Konecki wed in 2018 after dating for six years, but then split the following year, divorcing officially in March 2021. The two were able to keep the split amicable for their son's sake. "It was never really tricky because we're such good friends and over my dead body is my kid having a messy divorce in his life," she said on the podcast. "There are no issues and there were no issues, so I guess it was easier to make sure that didn't happen, but I was blessed with them, and him, (Simon) he's just the best, you know. And I definitely approached it all with grace and that really paid off." The singer has since moved on, after writing an entire album about it, and began dating sports agent Rich Paul. The two made their public debut in July 2021 courtside at an NBA game, and the singer took her relationship to Instagram in September.

Paul Feels the Same About Having More Kids

Paul, 40, father to three children, appears to be on the same page as the 34-year-old singer. He told E! News, "As a young dad, growing a business, it was pretty tough. But now looking as an older dad, if I was to have more kids, I'm looking forward to being a different dad." He went on to say, "You know, I have a daughter that's a junior in college so I was a very young dad, but now, different age, different time in my life, different position in my life. I'm really looking forward to being an older dad."

Moving Forward in the Relationship

Earlier this year in January, it was reported that the "Rolling in the Deep" singer purchased Sylvester Stallone's Beverly Hills mansion. Adele captioned an Instagram photo of her and Paul standing in front of the home with, "Time flies." The house, located in Beverly Park, an ultra-exclusive, gated community in the mountains of Beverly Hills with plenty of celebrity residents, cost Adele $58 million and that's being called "a steal." Stallone purchased the home back in the 90's and has referred to it as "the house that Rocky built." The home boasts 15,401 square feet with eight bedrooms, 10.5 bathrooms, and sits on 3.47 acres. With all that room, why not grow the family with a few more children?
