Inside Adele and Meghan Markle’s unlikely friendship: how the Royal may have encouraged the singer to do Oprah interview

ADELE has opened up to Oprah about her personal life and the pressures of fame in a tell-all interview - just months after longtime friend Meghan Markle also at down with the chat show queen.

The Something Like You singer and the Duchess of Sussex have been growing increasingly close since Meghan and husband Harry moved to California last year.

And while it's not clear whether Meghan persuaded Adele to chat to Oprah, the timing certainly seems convenient.

Here's a look at Meghan and Adele's unlikely friendship:

NEIGHBORS

After Meghan and Prince Harry's shocking departure from the Royal Family, it was not immediately clear where the two would settle with their children.

For some time, they lived in Canada before escaping to a mansion lent to them by actor and director Tyler Perry.

Perry's next door neighbor was Adele, and the singer and the Sussexes hit it off immediately.

Meghan and Prince Harry then moved on and purchased their own Los Angeles - but still got plenty of visits from new pal Adele.
