Adele’s ex Simon Konecki cuts scruffy figure as he's seen for first time since split

Singing superstar Adele's ex-husband Simon Konecki has been seen for the first time since their divorce.

Many had believed Adele, 33, and Simon - who share eight-year-old son Angelo - married in 2016, but she recently revealed they didn't wed until 2018, they then split in 2019.

And on Friday, father-of-one Simon was spotted out and about in Los Angeles sporting a shaggy beard and scruffy clothes.

The 47-year-old was seen strolling around in a beige cap and sunglasses before hopping into his car.

He continued his laid-back look in a blue t-shirt and baggy jogging bottoms.

Earlier this week, Adele thanked Simon when accepting the Album of the Year gong for her record 30 at the BRIT Awards.

She teared up as she said: "I'd like to dedicate this album to my son and Simon, his dad. This album was all of our journeys, not just mine. My son has been so kind and gracious and patient with me over the last couple of years."

Last year, Tottenham native Adele spoke candidly to Greg James on Friday's Radio One she told about starting fiery rows with the father of her son when sharing what inspired her hit Easy On Me.

Adele frankly confessed to being confrontational with charity CEO Simon as she spoke to radio DJ Greg.

The award-winning star shared: "It was first song I wrote for the album, going back beginning of 2019 really."

Sharing her inspiration for her songwriting, she added: "I was making decisions in my life, which have been well documented in the last few years.

"It was sort of that thing of initiating a discussion - not in the case of my son's dad - or a massive bloody fight, which I definitely started some fights post my relationship."
