Adele's relationship backed by loved ones

Adele has denied reports her boyfriend Simon Konecki is still married and explained he has been divorced from stylist Clary Fisher, the mother of his five-year-old daughter, ''for four years''.

Adele's new relationship has the support of "everyone" in her life.

The 'Someone Like You' hitmaker - who has been getting close to Simon Konecki, the boss of water charity Drop4Drop in recent weeks - has hit out at speculation her new lover is still married, explaining he has been divorced from stylist Clary Fisher, the mother of his five-year-old daughter, "for four years".

Writing on her blog, she said: "This is the first and last time I will comment on the details of my relationship with Simon. Contrary to reports and headlines in the press today, Simon is divorced and has been for 4 years.

Everyone in our lives separately and together wish us nothing but the best, and vice versa. These are the facts.

Meanwhile, the 23-year-old singer - who was forced to cancel a string of concerts in the US and England last year after undergoing surgery on her vocal cords for a benign polyp - has been banned from eating her beloved curry by doctors as she battles to get her voice back for a performance at February's BRIT Awards.

An insider told the Daily Star newspaper: "Adele loves curries. She keeps getting curry cravings, especially when she walks within sniffing distance of an Indian restaurant, but she's staying strong."
