Adele’s interview with Oprah

Adele is set to have a sit-down interview with Oprah Winfrey in the lead-up to her album release for 30 on the 20 November.

The interview, Adele One Night Only, will air on the CBS network.

Oprah’s best friend, Gayle King, said on CBS Mornings that she was told by “reliable sources” that the interview would take place this week, “if I had to guess, I would say Wednesday”.

“I also heard from ‘reliable sources’ that it will take place in Oprah’s green rose garden. It’s a very pretty setting as you can imagine, Oprah’s got a really nice yard… she’s very excited about it,” Gayle said.
