Adele has released her comeback single Easy On Me, her first new track in six years.

It saw her split from charity boss husband Simon Konecki in 2019 and spark a new romance with US sports agent Rich Paul.

Adele said 30, the album she will release in November, was her attempt at explaining her divorce to eight-year-old son Angelo.

Easy On Me sees the singer apparently directly addressing her ex-husband and son while explaining why she left her marriage.

The video, shot in black-and-white, features Adele taking a last look around an empty house before picking up her suitcase, putting on sunglasses and leaving.

She climbs into her car and drives off, passing a “sold” sign outside what was her family home.

“Go easy on me, baby,” Adele sings over a piano as she drives past a newly married couple.

Adele’s 30 is one of the most eagerly awaited releases in recent years and saw a global marketing campaign, including “30” being projected onto Edinburgh Castle.

Her previous albums – 19, 21 and 25 – have all been global hits. 21 and 25 both won album of the year at the Grammys.
