Rich Paul has reignited speculation about his marital status with Adele after referring to the singer as his wife in a new video. The comment has prompted fresh questions about whether the couple have already married privately, although neither has announced a wedding.
The 45-year-old sports agent appeared in a video shared by The Media Haus Co. on October 25, taking part in a challenge to find as many words as possible in a 60-second word search. During the exchange, interviewer Rel Tait asked Paul when he last completed one.
“It’s been a while. But my wife do ’em every day, every morning,” he replied, apparently referring to Adele.
Paul did not elaborate on the remark, leaving the couple’s marriage status unclear.

The pair have been romantically linked since 2021, when they were first spotted together at an NBA Finals game. Their relationship became public shortly afterwards, although both have largely kept details of their private life away from the media.
Adele had previously fuelled marriage rumours during her Las Vegas residency in September 2023, when she referred to Paul as her husband while discussing his interest in American football. She also made headlines after responding to a fan who asked her to marry them by indicating that she was already spoken for.

In August 2024, Adele gave the strongest indication yet that marriage was on the cards when she confirmed their engagement during a performance in Munich, Germany. A fan had held up a sign asking the singer to marry them. Adele responded that she could not because she was already getting married, before showing off her engagement ring.
Despite confirming their engagement, neither Adele nor Paul has publicly announced a wedding or shared details of a marriage ceremony.
Paul’s latest comment has added to the speculation, but it does not confirm that the couple have legally married. Whether they have exchanged vows privately remains unknown.
