Adele, the world’s leading singer who has won 15 Grammy awards, revealed that she suffered from a serious infection, so painful that she wanted to cut off her ear many times

During her performance at the Colosseum theater in Las Vegas, Adele caused a big surprise when revealing her current health condition. The British nightingale shared that she had just gone through a serious illness, suffering from extreme pain.

Adele revealed that she lost her hearing due to a severe ear infection.

“I had a very serious ear infection. I had such a bad infection. It was the most painful thing I’ve ever had in my life, it was worse than giving birth,” she said.

Adele shared that while on tour in Munich, she accidentally contracted a rare and difficult-to-treat waterborne bacteria, which led to an ear infection. Using the wrong antibiotics made the condition worse, causing such severe pain that Adele once wanted to have her ear amputated to end the pain.

Fortunately, the disease was eventually treated successfully, but Adele still lost some hearing in her left ear.

In addition to sharing about her health, Adele said she was surprised to find Celine Dion sitting in the audience with the singer’s two sons – Nelson and Eddy Angélil. Adele got off the stage, emotionally hugged her idol, and expressed her gratitude for Celine Dion attending her concert.

She also asked the audience to give a round of applause for the legendary singer. Celine Dion shed tears, stood up and waved to the audience at the Colosseum theater – where she performed more than 20 years ago. The moment the two divas hugged each other caused a stir on social networks, attracting millions of views.

Adele was moved and cried when she reunited with her idol Celine Dion in concert.

On her personal page, Adele said that Celine Dion’s visit to the show meant a lot to her: “I have been singing in Celine Dion’s auditorium at the Colosseum for almost two years now, and I’m about to close the show in four weeks. This is the only place I want to perform in Las Vegas because it was built for her. I have a picture of her next to the stage. Every night before the show, I touch the picture and then this weekend, she came. It was a big surprise for me,” the Hello singer wrote.

Adele is a leading British singer. She has won 15 Grammy awards and sold more than 120 million records. Adele was married to businessman Simon Konecki from 2018 to 2021. The couple have a 12-year-old son, Angelo. After the breakup, she spent time taking care of her son and focusing on music.

In 2021, she dated Rich Paul – an agent for many basketball stars. In 2024, the couple secretly got engaged and planned a wedding.
