Adele has opened up about the reality of explaining her divorce to her young son.
In a new interview for Vogue and British Vogue's November 2021 covers, the 33-year-old has shared how she discussed her split from husband Simon Konecki with their son Angelo, now 9.
The divorce wasfinalised earlier this year, almost two years after the couple split.
"[Angelo] has so many simple questions for me that I can't answer because I don't know the answer," Adele said.
Adele told Vogue she had inadvertently got into better shape after turning to exercise to deal with her anxiety.
"Like, 'Why can't we still live together?' That's just not what people do when they get divorced. 'But why not?' I'm like, 'I don't f***ing know. That's not what society does.' And: 'Why don't you love my dad anymore?' And I'd be like, 'I do love your dad. I'm just not in love.' "
She added, "I can't make that make sense to a 9-year-old."
Adele went on to tell British Vogue that she and her ex-husband "never fought" over their son "or anything like that".
"Angelo's just like, 'I don't get it.' I don't really get it either," the Someone Like You singer says. "There are rules that are made up in society of what happens and doesn't happen in marriage and after marriage, but I'm a very complex person. I've always let him know how I'm feeling from a very young age because I felt quite frazzled as an adult."
