There is no doubt that people went nuts when the ‘Hello’ hitmaker shared photos that show her incredible weight loss transformation.
Adele looks healthier and more radiant than ever!
But the singer, who lost 45 kilograms, thanks to her personal trainer, received widespread attention after sharing a birthday photo on Instagram to mark her 32nd birthday.
The birthday celebrant also praised healthcare workers for their efforts during the coronavirus pandemic.
“Thank you for the birthday love. I hope you’re all staying safe and sane during this crazy time,” Adele wrote. “I’d like to thank all of our first responders and essential workers who are keeping us safe while risking their lives! You are truly our angels.”
While many praised Adele and made comments about how her ‘winning’ her divorce, others just criticized her appearance.
Adele’s former trainer, Pete Geracimo, sprang into action to silence her critics and mentioned how proud he is of the singer.
“As Adele’s former London-based trainer, it’s disheartening to read negative commentary and fat-phobic accusations questioning the genuineness of her amazing weight loss,” Geracimo wrote.
“In my personal experience of working with her through many highs and lows, she always marched to the beat of her own drum on her own terms.
“She never undermined her God-given talent in any way. She let her incredible voice do the talking, or should I say singing! She never once pretended to be something that she wasn’t. What you saw was what you got. And we all LOVED it!”
The trainer continued: “When Adele and I started our journey together, it was never about getting super skinny.
It was about getting her healthy. Especially post pregnancy and post surgery. When 25 dropped and the tour announced, we had to get ready for a 13-month gruelling schedule. In that time, she warmed to training and made better food choices.
“As a result, she lost considerable weight and people took notice. Her body transformation was splashed across every media outlet. The attention it generated was mind-blowing.”
Geracimo also said that the singer has been through ‘some tough personal changes’ which came with ‘a new sense of self and wanting to be your best possible version.’
“My hope is that people appreciate the hard work that Adele has done to improve herself for the benefit to her and her family only. She did not lose the weight to make others feel bad about themselves.
“This personal transformation has nothing to do with me or you. It’s about Adele and how she wants to live her life.
“She has not changed from the Adele we grew up with and have loved. There is just a little less of her to go around. Just think, now that she is more fit and more fabulous, she might tour again! WIN-WIN!!!!”
