Rich Paul is known for being the CEO of Klutch Sports Group as well as one of the most powerful sports agents.
However, things didn’t always go smoothly for the star, who spoke about his traumatic start in life in his upcoming memoir, Lucky Me: A Memoir of Changing the Odds.
In his memoir, Paul describes the deep trauma of having a mother who struggled with drug addiction and sometimes wouldn’t return home for days on end.
It was these deep dives into his childhood which mostly resonated with his partner of more than two years, Adele.
In an interview with People, Rich said of Adele’s response to his book: “It was very emotional.

“I think a lot of it probably hit home, so yeah, it was a difficult read [for her].”
Adele herself has been open in the past about her own childhood struggles, having lost her beloved grandfather at the age of 10.
She also had an absentee father who only resurfaced when her career took off in her 20s.
The Easy on Me hitmaker told Oprah Winfrey in 2021: “I went to go and see him in Wales and I wanted to play him To Be Loved. My main goal in life is to be loved and loved.

“I wanted to go back to my dad and tell him, ‘You’re the reason I haven’t done that yet.’
“He was the reason I didn’t fully understand what it means to be in a loving, loving relationship with somebody.”
Adele has driven speculation also in recent months that she and Rich may have secretly tied the knot.
While doing her Weekends With Adele gigs in Las Vegas, a fan screamed out, as seen in a TikTok: “Will you marry me.”
Adele quipped back: “You can’t marry me. I’m straight, my love, and my husband’s here tonight.”
The fan replied: “Can you try?”
However, Adele was having none of it and clapped back: “No, I don’t want to try. I’m with Rich. You’re crazy, leave me alone.”
