Adele gushes over her romance with boyfriend Rich Paul

Singer Adele opened up about her bond with boyfriend Paul Walker at the Oprah show.

Adele started dating Paul over the summer after her divorce with husband Simon Konecki.

In an interview with Oprah Winfrey, the Rolling In the Deep singer said, "He’s just hilarious. Oh, he’s so funny, he’s hilarious, yeah. And very smart. You know, he’s very, very smart. It’s quite incredible watching him do what he does."

She added, "It is the first time I've loved myself and been open to loving and being loved by someone else."

“It’s just timing. But it’d be interesting to see what my reaction is like in general to anything that hurts me now that I feel so secure in myself, and I’m talking outside of romance as well."
