Adele said: “I will not see you for an incredibly long time. I will hold your dear in my heart for the whole length of my break and I will fantasise about these shows and any shows that I’ve done over the last three years. I’ll really hold them in the bottom of my heart forever. It has been amazing, I just need a rest.

“I have spent the last seven years building a new life for myself and I want to live it now. I will miss you terribly and I’m sure some of you will end up being in Vegas. I will remember these shows for eternity, they have been spectacular.”

Adele, who is reportedly engaged to sports agent Rich Paul, 42, is contracted to return to Caesars Palace to perform postponed shows from earlier in the year.
