According to an insider who is close to the family, Evans’ family is particularly heartbroken about his early demise. He and Adele didn’t get the chance to patch things up before the ailment conquered him.
He had reportedly reached out to the award-winning singer, but it was too late for things to be revived. The late Evans abandoned Adele and her mother Penny when she was just three years old.

During her acceptance speech, Adele declared that she didn’t love her father while appreciating her longtime manager, Jonathan Dickins. She praised Dickins for being like a dad to her all these years.
In his 2011 interview, Evans admitted to being responsible for destroying his relationship with Adele because of his alcohol addiction. He recalled drinking about two liters of vodka daily and neglecting Adele.
In a later discussion, he attributed Adele’s failed relationships with men to daddy issues stemming from him. The “Hometown Glory” crooner blasted her Evans, promising to cut him off from her life.
Despite her troubled relationship with her father, Adele embodied parenthood since she welcomed Angelo in 2012. According to a source, the 15-time Grammy Award winner is a “very involved” mother.
She reportedly made significant lifestyle changes to her health because of her son. Adele shares the seven-year-old with her ex-husband Simon Konecki who filed for divorce from her in September 2019.
After two years of the divorce proceedings, Konecki and Adele
in March, settling on how to split their properties and debts. Details of the settlement weren’t disclosed to the public.
