While Adele has always been incredibly secretive about her private life (fans have never seen a picture of her son Angelo, for example), the singer just broke her silence on her recent divorce from Simon Konecki.
Announcing the split in a statement last week, Adele’s rep confirmed: “Adele and her partner have separated. They are committed to raising their son together lovingly. As always, they ask for privacy. There will be no further comment.”
It seems the singer is now ready to share further comment, taking to Instagram to speak out about the break up for the first time – through the medium of meme.

The meme shows two photos of Adele – one crying during her 2016 Brit Award acceptance speech, and one while she was acting like a bad ass during Carpool Karaoke. The caption of the whole thing is completely savage / hilarious.
“When you catch yourself in your feelings then you remember who you are,” the meme read, with no further comment added by Adele. OMG.
While there’s no 100 per cent confirmation that she’s referencing her recent divorce, it seems like a fairly explicit reaction. Right?

Adele’s Instagram comes as E! report the 15-time Grammy winner’s work schedule ended up putting strain on their relationship. A source said, “They had a lot in common early on, but eventually they just grew apart. She became a bigger and bigger star, and he was okay [with] being in the background, but as she got bigger and had massive tours and intense schedules, they just grew apart.
“Their marriage was clearly working for a very long time,” the insider continued. “Whenever she was out at big openings and special events, he was usually with her, and they looked really just happy together and in love. They were into the marriage pretty much until they decided this just isn’t working anymore.”
