Adele's pregnancy: Star looking forward to baby's arrival 'so soon' says boyfriend
Filed under: Celebrity
It was a surprise pregnancy announcement to begin with, and singing superstar Adele has kept resolutely 'mum' about when her baby is due, but comments from her boyfriend Simon Konecki this weekend suggest that it could be any day now...
Speaking to the Mail on Sunday Simon, 36, said: "The baby is coming so soon," adding that he was 'very excited'.
He also gushed: "Adele is doing well and we can't wait."
Adele, 24, made her shock revelation at the end of June, and reports subsequently suggested she was due to give birth in September.
She wrote on her website that she and Simon - whom she has been dating since last summer - were 'delighted to announce' they were expecting their first child together.
''I wanted you to hear the news direct from me, obviously we're over the moon. Yours always, Adele," she added.

The mum-to-be was recently reported to be glued to re-runs of the Jo Frost SuperNanny TV programmes to prep her for motherhood, and, according to the The Sun, was trying to cut back on her swearing so the baby didn't end up with a 'potty mouth'!
So it looks like we could have another showbiz baby on the block VERY soon! See who else is expecting this year with our gallery of famous mums and dads-to-be below.
