Adele has a big future planned with boyfriend Rich Paul.

The “Easy on Me” singer taped her appearance on the UK’s “Graham Norton Show” Thursday and opened up about her relationship with the famed sports agent but would neither confirm nor deny if they’re engaged after wearing a massive diamond ring to the 2022 Brit Awards.

“If I was, would I ever tell anyone if I was or wasn’t?” the Brit, who was still wearing the ring, teased (via the Daily Mail).

But the real shock came when host Graham Norton asked Adele about her postponed Las Vegas residency, and the “Hello” singer, 33, assured viewers that it would be rescheduled for this year because she plans on having a baby.

“It is absolutely 100 percent happening this year. It has to happen this year because I’ve got plans for next year,” she said. “Imagine if I have to cancel because I am having a baby?”

As for why she decided to delay the show, Adele finally admitted it had nothing to do with COVID-19.

“I tried my hardest and really thought I would be able to pull something together in time,” Adele explained. “I regret that I kept going until that late in the day. It would have been a really half-arsed show, and I can’t do that.

“People will see straight through me up on the stage and know I didn’t want to be doing it. I’ve never done anything like that in my life and I’m not going to start now.”

Adele, who celebrated her appearance by pole dancing afterward, said she’s holding out on announcing new dates until she knows “everything will definitely be ready.”

“The sooner I can announce the better,” she said, “but I just can’t in case we are not ready in time.”

Sources previously told Page Six that Adele couldn’t get through rehearsals in the month leading up to her debut.

“Adele’s been crying and couldn’t get through a single full rehearsal for the past month,” said a source linked to the management team at Caesars Palace, where the shows were set to take place. “Just constantly on the phone with Rich … loudly shouting and sobbing.

“She has barely rehearsed because she is constantly in the middle of an emotional shootout.”

The Grammy winner confirmed her relationship with Paul, 40, last summer after finalizing her divorce from Simon Konecki, with whom she shares 9-year-old son Angelo.
