Hello from the other aisle! Adele, worth £102 million, mingles with oblivious shoppers

With an estimated £102 million in the bank she can afford the best of everything, but Adele proved she’s still partial to some budget shopping as she ventured into a London branch of Marks and Spencer on Tuesday morning.

The singer, 30, called into the retail giant’s High Street Kensington store before making a hasty beeline for the upper floors, which are dominated by large children's-wear and shoe departments.

Adele, a parent to son Angelo with partner Simon Konecki, looked relaxed in a black top and floral skirt as she threaded her way past bold signs advertising affordable £22.50 shirts and made her way onto the escalator. 

Despite her global fame, shoppers appeared to be completely oblivious to the star, who visited the store during one of its busiest hours.


Fellow customers didn't look twice as they made their up and down a set of stairs running alongside the escalator, unaware of the multi-millionaire superstar in their presence.  

Splashing out should be no problem for Adele, whose last world tour raked in more than £142 million in combined ticket and merchandise sales.  

In figures made public by her company Remedy Touring LLP Adele pocketed £42 million of the total amount, with Remedy making an impressive £70 million profit from her 16-month tour, which culminated at Wembley Stadium last June. 

The star earned more than £9 million from record sales in 2017 alone, despite her last album - the critically acclaimed 25 - being released three years ago. 

She is also rumoured to be considering a lucrative 12-month residency at Las Vegas hotel The Wynn, worth £22 million - or £380,000 per show.
