Kim Kardashian is at the center of a new scandal that involves singer Adele and her boyfriend, sports agent Rich Paul. A new blind item has emerged claiming that Kardashian and Paul are having an affair behind Adele’s back, despite the fact that the singer and the agent recently announced their engagement. The speculation is that Kim and Rich have been working together on a new deal, and have grown close during that time.
According to one TikToker, the blind item claims that the secret affair is all about business. The rumor is that Rich Paul is “hooking up” with Kim Kardashian in hopes of pushing a business deal through that would see his client LeBron James’ media company merging with The Kardashians producers.
It was previously reported by Variety that SpringHill Co., founded by LeBron James and Maverick Carter, are trying to combine forces with the Fulwell 73 production company in hopes of expanding into unscripted and live television.
Is Kim Kardashian Having An Affair With Adele’s Boyfriend Rich Paul?
The potential merger has been in talks for several months. The companies reportedly see the potential to merge in order to strengthen their entertainment sectors. As LeBron’s agent, Rich Paul, would be involved in the talks between the companies. Meanwhile, Fulwell 73 is behind The Kardashians, in which Kim is an executive producer.
The company has also produced the Grammy Awards, the Friends reunion on HBO Max and Apple TV’s Carpool Karaoke. In addition, the company also worked on Adele’s One Night Only concert special.
For their part, James and SpringHill have produced projects such as Space Jam: A New Legacy, Rez Ball, Reservation Dogs, The Wall, and Netflix’s Starting 5 NBA series, which features LeBron, Jimmy Butler, Anthony Edwards, Jayson Tatum, and Domantas Sabonis.
SpringHill was founded in 2020, and one year later sold a minorty stake to investors such as Fenway Sports Groupd, Nike, Epic Games, and RedBird Captial Partners. This gave the company a major boost, as it became valued at $725 million.
Fans Weigh In On Wild Speculation
The blind item suggests that the business merger has led to Rich Paul spending some significant time with Kim Kardashian, and even getting romantic with her. However, fans are torn whether or not to believe the gossip.
“Kimmy better watch her back. Adele is from the hood,” one person commented.
“Adele next album is going to be poppin,” said another.
“We riding with Adele,” a third person wrote.
“If true he absolutely has no taste. Kim over Adele??? This is not cool,” a fourth comment read.
For now, Rich Paul, Adele, and Kim Kardashian are staying quiet about the rumors. However, if evidence comes to light to prove the speculation, it will likely be a huge scandal for all involved. A messy situation could also cause everyone to lose profit, even though Adele may get some new song material out of it.
