We all know about Adele’s upcoming album release, everyone and their mother knows all about it. After leaving us album-less for far too long, Adele surprised us with the news of her next album, 30, due to land next month. And of course, the release of ‘Easy On Me’ which left us all crying into our wine glasses.

There was a whole campaign in the lead-up, and now Adele is doing everything from Instagram Lives to interviews to chat all about it.

As it turns out, Ed Sheeran’s new album is also released around the same time and Adele basically threw shade at Ed and the album itself. Jokingly, I may add – but still.

In a recent interview, Adele chatted with Jamie Theakston and Amanda Holden on Heart Breakfast all about her album, and the fact that Ed’s is landing around the same time.

“I mentioned the album is coming out 19th of November, Ed Sheeran’s got an album coming out the same time. Do you look at him as competition?” Jamie asked Adele.

“On the 19th?” to which Jamie said, “Well not the 19th, no. Don’t panic!”

Adele then joked back, “Oh, haha I ain’t panic! I ain’t panicking. He should panic!”

She then added, “I love Ed, I love Ed and I really love his wife Cherry.”

There’s three whole weeks in between the two albums, with Ed Sheeran’s fourth album, =, set to be released on October 29th.

In a recent interview with Vogue, Adele revealed that Easy On You is all about her divorce: “It’s not like anyone’s having a go at me,” she said.

“But it’s like, I left the marriage. Be kind to me as well. It was the first song I wrote for the album and then I didn’t write anything else for six months after because I was like, ‘OK, well, I’ve said it all.'”
