We Need to Talk About Adele’s Incredible Diamond Ring

Now that should put a stop to break-up speculation, just as Adele wanted.
No, we don’t have an official Instagram engagement announcement from the singer, but do we really need one? In my eyes, Adele is firmly off the market and her next album will be all about new love. I can see it as plainly as that blinding diamond, which looks to be set on a simple platinum or white gold band with diamond pavé, by the way.
She even wore it at her appearance on talk show “The Graham Norton Show,” in the days after she debuted the diamond on the red carpet and took home three Brits, though that part seems inconsequential in comparison.
