The 36-year-old made an unexpected announcement during her "Weekends With Adele" performance at Caesars Palace on Friday.

"Once I am done with all my obligations and all of my shows, I want to have a baby," the "Hello" songstress shared with the crowd, according to the Daily Mail. "I want a girl because I've already got a boy. I feel like she might be like the person I love the most in the world, but also probably hate the most in the world. That is what I feel will happen. She's going to put me in my place all the time, isn't she?"

Despite a hiatus in March prompted by illness, Adele, 36, discussed the possibility of welcoming a daughter with her partner, Rich Paul, during her residency.

"With me as her mother and Rich as her father, she's going to be a bossy little queen, isn't she?" Adele inquired.

The singer also acknowledged Paul's daughter, Reonna Simone Paul, with a heartfelt shout-out during the show.

"It's my stepdaughter's graduation this weekend," she said. Reonna is set to graduate from Clark Atlanta University. "So, I love you darling," she affectionately expressed.

Adele is the mother of one son, Angelo, who is 11 years old, with her ex-husband Simon Konecki.

Rich and Adele's romance was first publicized in July 2021 when they were seen together at the NBA Finals.

"I didn't mean to go public with it," she told 'Vogue.' I just wanted to go to the game. I just love being around him. I just love it."
