She’s rumoured to be heading back to the UK, but it seems Adele still has time for some American pastimes in her busy schedule.
The singer was spotted courtside on Saturday during a Team USA basketball game at London’s O2 Arena.
The singer, 36, sat alongside her partner, basketball agent Rich Paul, 42, to watch the team’s thrilling win over South Sudan, who held a shock 14-point lead at halftime.
Adele, a regular at Los Angeles Lakers games in her adopted hometown, looked chic in an oversized orange shirt, black pants and open-toed heels.
The Someone Like You singer recently announced that she will be taking a break from music and that her residency at Caesar’s Palace will end in November.
She’s rumoured to be heading back to the UK, but it seems Adele still has some time for American pastimes in her busy schedule.
The singer was spotted on Saturday on the Team USA basketball court at London’s O2 Arena.
Actor Idris Elba was also present at the game, accompanied by his wife, Canadian model Sabrina Dhowre.
Adele’s departure to the UK comes amid talk of her returning to Britain after her “big break” in music.
The Grammy winner, who secretly married Rich late last year, will return to Las Vegas in October until her residency ends in November and confirmed she has “no plans” to make new music afterward.
Despite shelling out big bucks for a luxurious new mansion in the US, the singer is reportedly planning to return to the UK once her residency ends.
The star and her partner Rich bought Sylvester Stallone Two years ago they owned a $58 million Beverly Hills mansion, but most of it was thrown away in a massive renovation.
Adele moved to Los Angeles in 2016 and has previously said she did so to get more for her money, but after eight years there appears to have been little progress on the renovations to her lavish Beverly Hills mansion.
Adele’s assistant Rose Moon returned to the UK a few weeks ago and is currently organising the singer’s return as well. Sun was reported earlier this month.
Speaking about the megastar’s return to London, a source said: “It’s all part of a wider return home and once her Vegas shows finish in November, she has said she will be back.”

The Someone Like You singer recently announced that she will be taking a break from music and that her residency at Caesar’s Palace will conclude in November.
Also present at the game was actor Idris Elba, accompanied by his wife, Canadian model Sabrina Dhowre.
The actor looked dapper in an oversized shirt and a beanie.
“Rose has already moved back to the UK and Adele will follow. Just like football, it looks like Adele is coming home.”
The source also claimed that Adele is “British through and through,” which has inspired her desire to return to her roots.
Adele previously told British Vogue magazine that she invested in three mansions in Beverly Hills to get more value for her money.
“The type of house I have in LA I could never afford to buy in London. Never,” the Tottenham native told the outlet.
Adele said she had “looked at houses” in London before making the decision to move to the United States in 2016.
“It’s hundreds of millions of pounds,” he said. “I don’t have that much money. I’d throw up.”
Adele bought the eight-bedroom, 12-bathroom home from Sylvester Stallone in January last year, which saddled her with a colossal $37.7 million mortgage.
Sylvester previously revealed how a statue of his character Rocky from the 1976 American sports drama film, which overlooks the huge outdoor pool, helped secure the deal.
The actor had been planning to take the crockery with him, when Adele insisted that she wanted him to keep the property.
Speaking to the Wall Street Journal, he said: “She said, ‘There will be no deal. That will ruin the whole deal.’ She wanted the statue.”
It has been reported that despite having spent a lot of money on a luxurious new mansion in the US, the singer plans to return to the UK once her residency ends.
Adele is now demolishing the sprawling mansion and making it her own in a major renovation project.
Construction images show the 18,587-square-foot home has been completely remodeled, two years after the star purchased the property with husband Rich Paul.
Adele, who has yet to move into the property two years after purchasing it, is reportedly paying “millions” for the extensive list of renovations, which include adding a five-car garage and a fire-resistant roof.
Adele already has an 11-year-old son, Angelo, with ex-husband Simon Konecki, but told fans while on stage at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas in May that she was hoping to have a daughter.
The singer said: ‘Once I’m done with all my obligations and all my shows, I want to have a baby.
“I want a girl because I already have a boy. I feel like she could be the person I love most in the world, but also probably the person I hate most in the world; that’s what I feel like will happen. She’ll put me in my place all the time, won’t she?”
The Rolling In The Deep singer joked that the little girl will end up being a “bossy queen” because of the parents she will have.
She said, ‘With me as her mother and Rich as her father, she’s going to be a bossy little queen, isn’t she?’
Adele bought Sylvester Stallone’s eight-bedroom, 12-bathroom home with a colossal $37.7 million mortgage, but it’s being completely rebuilt.
When Simon and Adele split in 2019, the couple remained neighbors so they could keep things as normal as possible for their son.
At the time, when they first started talking about splitting up, she said: “In the end, I thought, ‘We’re not going to do it. You’ve bought the house across the street from me. Nothing changes for Angelo.'”
Adele last performed in the UK in 2022, when she headlined two nights at BST in London’s Hyde Park to an audience of 65,000.
Last year, Adele also revealed a reason why she might not want to return to the UK.
She told The Hollywood Reporter: “I suffer from very bad seasonal depression, so the weather (in Los Angeles) is good for me. It’s weird sometimes, because I’m very British.
“Since it’s a little harder for me to go out now, what I like most about Los Angeles is that everyone goes to each other’s houses. I like that.”
