This is 31…thank fucking god ???? 30 tried me so hard but I’m owning it and trying my hardest to lean in to it all. No matter how long we’re here for life is constant and complicated at times. I’ve changed drastically in the last couple years and I’m still changing and that’s okay. 31 is going to be a big ol’ year and I’m going to spend it all on myself. For the first time in a decade I’m ready to feel the world around me and look up for once. Be kind to yourself people we’re only human, go slow, put your phone down and laugh out loud at every opportunity. Learning to REALLY truly love yourself is it, and I’ve only just realized that that is more than enough. I’ll learn to love you lot eventually ???? Bunch of fucking savages, 30 will be a drum n bass record to spite you. Chin up eh ❤️

Adele and Konecki began dating in 2011. The “Someone Like You” singer gave birth to their son in 2012. They tied the knot in secret and didn’t confirm their marriage until 2017.

“They are committed to raising their son together lovingly,” a representative for Adele told the Associated Press back when the split was announced in April. (RELATED: Adele Just Had Her Private Photos Leaked In A Big Hack)

“She just seems happy being a mom and working,” a source told People magazine after the news broke about the split.

Well, maybe we’ll get new music from Adele. We all know life circumstances lead to great music, for example Taylor Swift.

“She is definitely getting ready both mentally and physically to promote new music. It seems it will happen later this year,” the source added. “She talks about last year as a very difficult year, and she’s said in the past that creating new music is almost like therapy. You can tell that she is ready to share with her fans.”

I’ll be waiting.
