    Uncharacteristically, Adele addressed the issue on her website: 'This is the first and last time I will comment on the details of my relationship with Simon,' the singer, 23, wrote.

    'Contrary to reports and headlines in the press today, Simon is divorced and has been for four years.

    Adele is said to be smitten with Simon, who is 14 years her senior, after they were introduced to each other by singer Ed Sheeran a couple of months ago.

    Previously it had been reported that the Old Etonian entrepreneur was still in the process of divorcing his fashion stylist wife Clary Fisher, who he wed in 2004. The couple have a five year old daughter.
