BRITISH SINGING SENSATION Adele had her 54.7 million Instagram fans in a tizzy earlier this week after posting a not-so-subtle hint that she is, indeed, engaged to American sports agent Rich Paul.

In the second pic in an eight-photo carousel, the 16-time Grammy winner is seen holding up a copy of Paul’s new memoir, Lucky Me, while showing off a massive rectangular radiant-cut or emerald-cut diamond on the ring finger of her left hand.

The diamond seems to be framed by a yellow gold bezel and set on a delicate diamond-pavé band. We’re guessing the diamond weighs at least 10 carats.

Still, the 35-year-old singer-songwriter did not formally announce an engagement. She simply titled the slideshow, “Weekend 31,” which is a reference to her residency at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace.

Some fans are convinced the couple is engaged, while others believe they are already married. With her residency coming to an end on November 4, might that be the day she finally confirms her relationship status and settles into the next chapter of her life?

During a mid-September concert, Adele almost let the cat out of the bag when a fan shouted a marriage proposal from the audience. Adele responded by saying, “You can’t marry me… my husband’s here tonight. He’s here.”

Adele and the 41-year-old Paul were first seen together two years ago. Adele told Rolling Stone that they met at a mutual friend’s birthday party. The successful agent claims nearly 200 clients, including NBA stars LeBron James, Anthony Davis and Draymond Green.

Family Legacy, New Chapter: How Wilkerson Turns 89 Years of History Into Future Success

After 89 years of serving the Albany community, Harold Finkle Your Jeweler faced a pivotal decision. For third-generation owner Justin Finkle, the demanding hours of running a small business were taking precious time away from his young family. "After 23 years, I decided this was the time for me," Finkle explains. But closing a business with nearly nine decades of inventory and customer relationships isn't something easily managed alone. Wilkerson's comprehensive approach transformed this challenging transition into a remarkable success story. Their strategic planning handled everything from advertising and social media to inventory management and staffing — elements that would overwhelm most jewelers attempting to navigate a closing sale independently. The results speak volumes. "Wilkerson gave us three different tiers of potential goals," Finkle notes. "We've reached that third tier, that highest goal already, and we still have two weeks left of the sale." The partnership didn't just meet financial objectives—it exceeded them ahead of schedule.
