Back in 2016 — real name Joseph Junior Adenuga Jr — told ES Magazine, “Adele texts me all the time and keeps me in check. She speaks to me about how things are going.”
That same year Adele posted a picture of him with the caption, “Tottenham Boy” alongside a heart emoji. Skepta retweeted the post with the words “love you” and a red rose emoji.
“She gassed me up,” he admitted three months later. “One day I was just chilling and she [tweeted] a picture that said ‘Tottenham boy’ and she’s from Tottenham as well. I was actually going to quit music that day, that was one of the sickest things ever. She’s like the lady of Tottenham.”

This year, Adele split from charity entrepreneur Simon Konecki, 45, after being together since 2011. And it’s been reported that Skepta ended his brief relationship with supermodel Naomi Campbell early last year after she discovered another woman was expecting his daughter, River.
The source says the two friends, “have been there for each other a lot after both their relationships split up,” and that may be where romance blossomed. Monday evening a spokesman for Adele said the singer had, “No reply at this time.”
