Adele buys new mansion

Adele has splashed out on another new mansion for her family.

The 'Someone Like You' singer - who gave birth to her first baby boy last month with charity worker boyfriend Simon Konecki - is said to have purchased a new ￡5.6 million ($9 million) home in the plush Notting Hill area of London just eight months after buying a property for ￡2.5 million ($4 million)in Brighton.

The 24-year-old Grammy award winner, who is Britain's wealthiest young musician, is moving into a five-bedroom house beside Kylie Minogue and Pippa Middleton, according to The Sun newspaper.

Sources close to the singer recently said she is eager to expand her family in the near future and loves being a mother so much that she wants to have another child soon and doesn't want to hire extra help.

She is said to have told friends: "I'm so in love, I've never felt this much emotion. I plan to spend the next six weeks in my pyjamas - everything I want is right here at home.

"Adele has told us, 'No nannies - I'm going to be a hands-on mummy.' She's also said that she's making it through the sleepless nights by watching films while breastfeeding.

"Adele says that she's proud of every inch of herself, but she's happy she can finally see her toes again.

"She's talking about getting pregnant again, but Simon reckons she'll change her mind after a few weeks of no sleep!"
