British singer-songwriter, Adele wrapped up her Las Vegas residency in an emotional final performance, sharing heartfelt words about her son Angelo and fiancé Rich Paul.
Speaking to fans during the concluding night of ‘Weekends With Adele’ at Caesars Palace, the Grammy-winning singer reflected on the decision to stay in one place for her son’s sake.
“I chose to do a residency because I hate touring. But more importantly, I wanted to keep Angelo’s life as normal as possible. This setup let me be with him on weekends, even though he couldn’t always join me. I wouldn’t change it for the world.”

Angelo is Adele’s son with ex-husband Simon Konecki.
Turning her gratitude to her fiancé, Adele praised Rich Paul for his unwavering support. “To my partner, Rich, thank you for always lifting me up and making me believe I can do anything,” she said. “There were times when I felt too tired or emotionally drained, but you’ve been my rock.”
Videos posted online from her concert show the singer getting tearful as she bid farewell to Vegas.
“It’s been wonderful, and I will miss it terribly, and I will miss you terribly. I don’t know when I next want to perform again.”

She also said she got “closure” when Canadian singer Celine Dion came to watch her perform, admitting that she cried for a “whole week” afterward. “It was just such a full circle moment for me because that’s the only reason I ever even wanted to be in here,” she added.
In September, Adele suggested that she was exhausted from the staggering run of shows and plans to take an extended break from music after the residency ends.
Adele’s residency, which began in November 2022 after initial delays, was marked by standout moments, including a personal highlight in October when her idol, Celine Dion, attended a show.
Her run of sell-out shows at the venue, which seats around 4,000 people, has been a success but has also taken its toll.
The ‘Hello’ singer’s residency was more than just a musical spectacle, it was a deeply personal journey.

Adele turned every head in the room during her final performance of her Las Vegas residency and it wasn’t just her voice that made people stare and her incredible Chloe dress looked sensational.
The 36-year-old, who announced on Instagram it was ‘The End’ of her Weekends With Adele Las Vegas residency at Caesars Palace, looked super chic in the high-end label.
The dress the mother-of-one chose had a low-cut neckline, and a body-skimming cut and featured the most incredible, bombastic bell sleeve detail.
The dramatic number was the ideal dress for her standout show.
Also seen was the show-stopping singer’s eye-watering engagement ring. Adele’s fiancé Rich Paul gave the ‘When We Were Young’ singer the dazzling piece of jewelry for their engagement and her fans haven’t stopped thinking about it ever since.
The couple have been dating for over three years. Adele’s 8ct pear-shaped diamond is nestled on a yellow gold band ring.
The pear-cut shape is firmly back in fashion, and Adele joins many celebrities with the same style. Victoria Beckham, one of fifteen engagement rings given to her by her husband, David is pear-shaped.
Emily Ratajkowski who turned her nuptial ring from ex-husband Sebastian Bear-McClard into a divorce ring and Margot Robbie said “I do” to her husband Tom Ackerley with a pretty pear style.
The London-born singer tends to opt for dramatic black gowns but sometimes she does add a splash of colour to her performance outfits and one of the most standout dresses she ever wore was back in 2023.
