Ekohotbloguunderstands that Adele, 31, split from charity boss Simon Konecki, 45, after eight years together but they had not struck a pre-nup deal to protect her fortune.
Adele’s request for the settlement to be private was approved by a court in LA.
The couple have agreed to share custody of son Angelo, seven.
Details including “financial, sales or other confidential business information” will not be available to the public, while those who require access will be forced to sign an NDA.
Adele has reportedly already given Simon, who lives in the UK, a house close to her $14 million mansion in Beverly Hills.
The Hello hit maker first publicly addressed charity boss Simon as her husband during her acceptance speech at the 2017 Grammys, a year before they actually tied the knot.
But the pair’s relationship was dogged by rumours they were living separate lives, with Adele preferring life in glitzy Los Angeles, while Simon often stayed in the UK.
According to sources, Adele, who has since been linked to British grime artist Skepta, has been hard at work on her next album and is set to release new music this year.
Twitter users were not so happy about the divorce settlement and had some scathing, yet hilarious comments to share about this whole ordeal.

I’m not against feminism or anything but this Adele issue shows how this people don’t really want equal right but to bully the other guys.
If Tiger woods,usher,Jeff Bezos and Emmanuel Eboue all split their properties into two then why’s Adele case different?
