Adele earns £160K weekly in 2024

Adele's Financial Success and Personal Life

Adele, the British singer known for her powerful voice and emotional lyrics, has continued to enjoy significant financial success even without releasing a new album in several years. According to reports, she earned an impressive £158,000 every week in 2024. This figure does not include the substantial earnings from her final 32 Las Vegas residency shows or the 10 dates at a purpose-built venue in Munich.

Despite not releasing an album since 2021, Adele managed to add £8.2 million to her reported £200 million fortune last year. Her performances in Sin City reportedly brought in £740,000 per show, while her concerts in Germany also generated a similar amount. These figures highlight the continued demand for her music and performances.

Adele's business ventures are managed through her companies: Adkins Touring, Melted Stone, and Melted Stone Publishing. These entities have recently filed new accounts with Companies House, as reported by The Sun. Her wealth is further bolstered by her extensive music catalog, which continues to generate significant royalties.

Her album 21 sold a total of 31 million copies worldwide, making it the best-selling album of the 21st century so far and one of the best-selling albums of all time. Adele's third album, 25, sold 22 million copies, while her latest LP, 30 in 2021, sold 5.54 million copies worldwide. In 2019, she earned nearly £23,000 a day despite not releasing a record or going on a tour, resulting in a staggering £8.6 million profit after taxes, which equates to £23,719 a day.

Adele has always emphasized that she is not motivated by money. She has stated that she will never lend her name to a product, expressing her belief that selling out is shameful. She said, "I think it's shameful when you sell out. It depends on what kind of artist you wanna be but I don't want my name anywhere near another brand. I don't wanna be tainted or haunted - I don't wanna sell out in any way."

Adele recently enjoyed a rare outing with her fiancé, Rich Paul, and his children during a Christmas party. Her last public appearance was posing with Mercedes F1 stars at the United States Grand Prix in Austin, Texas in October. She was last seen with Paul when they attended multiple NBA games in Los Angeles back in April.

They have been romantically linked since they went public with their relationship in July 2021 at an NBA game. In August 2024, Adele confirmed her engagement with Paul during her concert in Munich, Germany. During the event, a fan held up a sign asking, "Will you marry me?" Adele politely declined, saying, "I can't marry you because I'm already getting married so I can't, but I appreciate it. Thank you!"

Their recent outing comes after both Adele and Paul expressed their desire to expand their blended family and have more children. Adele is the mother of a 13-year-old son named Angelo, whom she shares with her ex-husband Simon Konecki.

As for Rich Paul, not much is known about his children or their mother. However, he previously spoke about becoming a father at a young age when his daughter was born. He told E! News, "As a young dad, growing a business, it was pretty tough. But now looking as an older dad and my kids being much older, and obviously, if I was to have more kids ... I'm looking forward to being a different dad, a more patient dad."

Adele has also shared her desire to have more children with Paul. During one of her shows, she candidly told her fans, "I really want to be a mom again soon, so every time I see a name I like, I write it down in my phone." She mentioned two names she liked, Parker and Spencer, before adding, "I can't say Parker because Rich likes that name." She later added, "You know what else, I like Ray for [a girl] spelt like a boy's name."
