Adele has submitted to a strict regime: she trains two to three times a day, as the British woman has now told Vogue.
Lifting weights in the morning, boxing in the afternoon and endurance training in the evening.
"I got addicted to it."
Adel's transformation has been a topic since May 2020.
At that time, she published a snapshot that spread rapidly on the Internet.
She had not shown herself in public for a long time, the corona pandemic was in full swing - and suddenly this picture of her appeared, in which she was hardly recognized because she had lost so much weight.
The reactions were correspondingly excited.
Adele says: "People are shocked because I didn't share my› trip ‹with them." Today we are used to everything being documented on Instagram.
You, on the other hand, lost a good 45 kilos behind closed doors.
"Most people in my position would probably get a fat deal with a diet brand," says the 33-year-old.
“I didn't care.
I did it for myself and nobody else. So why should I share it? "
"If anything, I eat more than I used to"
A number of false stories had been spread about her, and a Pilates trainer she had never seen claimed to have trained Adele.
“Disgusting” is that. “And: I haven't been on a diet!” She says.
"If anything, I eat more than before because I train so hard."
Adele explains her high sports workload as follows: »It was due to my fears.
When I worked out, I just felt better.
It was never about losing weight, it was always about getting strong «.
Adele leaves open which fears she means.
She spoke of a "year of fear".
And said: "At 30 my life fell apart without warning."
That year, her marriage to Simon Konecki, the father of her son Angelo, who was almost nine years old, also broke up.
"Neither of us did anything wrong," she said.
"Neither of us hurt the other".
The interpretation that she had lost weight in order to take revenge on her ex, she commented in the "Vogue" with an expression that should not be quoted here.
Only this much: That is ridiculous.
People loved to portray a divorced woman like she was out of control, like she'd gone crazy.
"That's nonsense."
In any case, today she is obviously doing better: she is on the way to her "true happiness".
She withdrew very much in the "year of fear".
“It paid off.
People are used to my being a hermit. "
Adele, 33, is one of the most successful singers of the 21st century.
It has won a number of awards, including an Oscar and 15 Grammys, and has sold millions of records.
