Adele dumped by indie star Slinky

Soul singer Adele has split up with her indie star boyfriend Slinky Sunbeam.

According to The Sun, Sunbeam ditched the 'Cold Shoulder' star while she was promoting her music in America.

Sunbeam, who plays in the band The More Assured, is now reportedly dating Burberry model Morwenna Lytton-Cobbold.

A source said: "Adele and Slinky met in February and really hit it off. They are both huge characters and had each other in stitches. It was really sweet.

"She was really into Slinky and it was great to see her so happy. She’d had a bit of a drought when it came to men, despite all her success.

“But then after about a month she headed off to America to do some gigs and promotions. She hoped Slinky would be waiting when she got back. But he didn’t hang around. He traded her in for a skinny model."
