Adele shelled out £2m on friend's hen party

Adele spent £2 million on a hen party. The 'Hello' hitmaker - who is reportedly set to sign a staggering £90 million record contract with Sony Music - spares no expense when it comes to treating her friends and has even paid off a mortgage for one of her pals. A source said: "Adele will pay for holidays. She treated [childhood friend] Laura Dockrill and her boyfriend to a private yacht charter when they were in Santorini recently. "She also paid for 20 friends on a week-long hen do in Ibiza last year - renting out a £2 million villa. "She's even paid off one mate's mortgage and bought another of her oldest friends a £60,000 car when hers got written off." As well as treating her friends, the 28-year-old singer - who has three-year-old son Angelo with boyfriend Simon Konecki - loves to splash the cash for her family. The source added to heat magazine: "Adele isn't one of those celebrities who loves to splash out on designer clothes. But she definitely enjoys having money and spending it on making her and her loved ones' lives comfortable. She is incredibly generous. "Her mum Penny wants for nothing and Adele pays for as many holidays as possible and buys a new car for her every year. "She's put some cash aside for Angelo when he's older and uses her money to make sure he has the best childhood and that they get to spend as much time together as possible as a family. She can afford several nannies, so Angelo can join her on tour. She always makes time for him, so they can visit fun places like Disneyland with no expense spared."
