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.

You Wouldn’t Cut Your Own Hair. Why Run Your Own Retirement Sale?

After being in business for over a quarter of a century, Wayne Reid, owner of Wayne Jewelers in Wayne, Pennsylvania, decided it was time for a little “me time.” He says, “I’ve reached a point in my life where it’s time to slow down, enjoy a lot of things outside of the jewelry industry. It just seemed to be the right time.” He chose Wilkerson to handle his retirement sale because of their reputation and results. With financial goals exceeded, Reid says he made the right choice selecting Wilkerson to handle the sale. “They made every effort to push our jewelry to the forefront of the showcases,” he says, lauding Wilkerson for their finesse and expertise. Would he recommend them to other jewelers who want to make room for new merchandise, expand their business or like him, decide to call it a day? Absolutely he says, equating trying to do this kind of sale with cutting your own hair. “The results are going to happen but not as well as if you have a professional like Wilkerson do the job for you.”
