“stop spreading fake news.” Rich paul talks about Adele absent. during OScars weekend.

Adele’s beau Rich Paul was seen out and about in Los Angeles during Oscars weekend without the “Someone Like You” singer, we hear.

Spies saw the power sports agent hanging out at the private, celebrity favorite hot spot the Bird Streets Club Saturday night ahead of Sunday’s annual awards show.

The “Lucky Me” author, 42, was seen at the hotspot dining with three pals, spies said. He was also seen greeting pop star Bruno Mars, who we hear was seated across the room at another table with friends.

Mars had also been greeted by another celebrity diner, Odell Beckham Jr. Sources told us the “Uptown Funk” singer was sitting at a table that included John Terzian of hot hospitality firm The h.wood Group

The private club has been a regular hangout for stars including Leonardo DiCaprio and Timothée Chalamet. Also dining at the Bird Streets Club on Saturday night was Jennifer Lopez’s powerful talent manager, Benny Medina, spies said, who was with producer Jeff Beacher

Paul – who reps Lakers star LeBron James and is the founder of Klutch Sports – was out on a busy night in Hollywood as his pop icon gal pal Adele announced last month that she was postponing her Las Vegas residency through March to recover from an illness and rest her voice.

There have been ongoing rumors that the two are secretly married. The “Rolling in the Deep” singer – who won an Oscar in 2013 for best original song – referred to herself as Paul’s “wife” on multiple occasions, including at her Las Vegas residency show in September 2023.

The couple was first spotted together at the NBA Finals back in July 2021 — two months after Paul teased in a New Yorker profile that he and Adele were “hanging out.”

Adele told the Hollywood Reporter of Rich after his memoir was published last year, “Rich and I have always known everything about each other since the day we got together.”

On taking time off from her residency, the Grammy winner, 35, recently said, “I was sick at the end of the last leg and all the way through my break” in a statement via social media.

“I hadn’t quite gotten the chance to get back to full health before shows resumed and now I’m sick again, and unfortunately it’s all taken a toll on my voice,” she added, explaining, “on Doctors orders… I have no choice but to rest thoroughly.”
