Adele has reportedly enjoyed a string of dates with grime star Skepta.

The Hello singer split from her husband Simon Konecki back in April.

Fresh from her heartbreak, Adele, 31, is said to have found romance with fellow Tottenham native Skepta, 37.

Sources claim the pair enjoyed a night at the Crystal Maze experience in London two weeks ago for the Shutdown singer's birthday.

The insider told The Sun: "Adele and Skepta have been there for each other a lot after both their relationships split up.

"They have a close bond and there’s definitely a special connection.

“They’re spending more and more time together. Some of their friends are hoping and predicting they could end up being a great couple one day.”

It comes after the pair have spoken fondly of each other in the press and made clear their mutual appreciation on social media.

Speaking to ES Magazine in 2016, Skepta said: "Adele texts me all the time and keeps me in check. She speaks to me about how things are going."

The same year Adele shared a picture of Skepta - real name Joseph Junior Adenuga Jr - to her official Instagram account.

"Tottenham Boy," she wrote, followed by a heart emoji.

Skepta reshared the message and wrote "love you" with a red rose emoji.

Recalling the incident to IBTimes UK, Skepta later said: “She gassed me up. One day I was just chilling and she [tweeted] a picture that said ‘Tottenham boy’ and she’s from Tottenham as well.

“I was actually going to quit music that day, that was one of the sickest things ever. She’s like the lady of Tottenham.”

In April this year it was reported Adele had split from Simon Konecki, with whom she shares a son.

She has since filed for divorce.
