Music sensation Adele was in tears on stage as she wrapped up her Las Vegas residency.
The Rolling In The Deep singer had been performing her Weekends With Adele show at Caesars Palace for two years and was emotional as it came to an end, giving a tearful speech before going to hug her fiancé Rich Paul and her 11-year-old son Angelo, who she shares with her ex Simon Konecki.
The star, 36, also addressed the fact her show had got off to a “rocky start” – she had initially been due to open it in January 2022 but postponed it just 24 hours before the opening night due to Covid and delays, telling fans on Instagram at the time: "I'm so sorry, but my show ain't ready.”

Speaking to the crowd at Caesars, she said: “It got off to such a f***ing rocky rocky way. It was one of the worst years of my life ever…
"I was being punched around by it, it was f***ing horrible. And I was told it was career suicide and that Vegas would never forgive me for doing something so last minute.
“But we were talking as a team earlier, which was when I first started crying… had I done that show that I cancelled, I certainly wouldn’t be standing here tonight doing my 100th show here.”
Emotional, the Make You Feel My Love singer told the audience to follow their "gut instinct" and not to do things that just don't feel right to them.

She said: “If something doesn’t feel right to you, in anything, if something doesn’t feel right to you don’t f***ing do it, don’t do it, don’t do it, it doesn’t matter what, and I am talking about gut instinct, when something doesn’t feel right don’t do it."
The star went on: “I am bursting, bursting, bursting with pride, I am so proud of myself, I am so proud of my team, all of my crew, all of my band, all of my fans... I'm so thankful to Vegas for giving me that second chance.”
