Adele blasts her estranged dad during Grammy Awards acceptance speech

Adele reigned supreme at the Grammy awards show on Sunday night – and used the opportunity to attack her estranged father who was never there when she needed him.


Instead, the British singer took the opportunity to praise her long-time manager Jonathan Dickins for his help in creating the multi-award winning album 25 – and compared him to the father she wished she had.

She told the audience: “Thank you to my manager because the comeback, as it were, was completely masterminded by him. And you executed it incredibly, and I owe you everything. We’ve been together for 10 years, and I love you like you’re my dad.”
