In what Vogue magazine said was her first
interview in five years, the singer-songwriter described the
record, which follows her 2015 Grammy Award-winning "25", as
"sensitive".
The 33-year-old, who has split from charity executive Simon
Konecki, appears on the November covers of Vogue and British
Vogue, a first for the fashion magazine, with both editions
running separate interviews.
"I just felt like I wanted to explain to him, through this
record, when he's in his twenties or thirties, who I am and why
I voluntarily chose to dismantle his entire life in the pursuit
of my own happiness," Adele told British Vogue, referring to her
nine-year-old son, Angelo.
"It made him really unhappy sometimes. And that's a real wound
for me that I don't know if I'll ever be able to heal."
Adele, who has named her three albums after milestone ages -
"19", "21" and "25", has enjoyed stratospheric success with
ballads like "Someone Like You" and "Hello", in which she sings
about break-ups and regrets.
"It's sensitive for me, this record, just in how much I love
it," Adele told Vogue.
On Tuesday, Adele posted a short video clip for her upcoming
single "Easy On Me", released on Oct. 15.
Fans had speculated new Adele music was imminent after
mysterious "30" signs were beamed on buildings around the world.
"When I was 30, my entire life fell apart and I had no warning
of it," Adele told British Vogue.
Adele, who lives across the street from Konecki and shares
custody with him, also addressed her weight loss, which had made
headlines.
"My body's been objectified my entire career. It's not just now.
I understand why it's a shock," she said. "I understand why some
women especially were hurt. Visually I represented a lot of
women. But I'm still the same person."
