Adele fans around the world waited with bated breath for Adele's "30" to release in late November 2021. In the six long years that had passed since the release of Adele's "25," Adele and her husband had separated and divorced. It came as no surprise to music fans that when the soulful crooner, who writes music from her life's experiences, was asked what "30" was about, she responded frankly, "Divorce, babe, divorce." 

As a divorce attorney, I eagerly anticipated the release of "30." For many clients, divorce can feel "taboo"—a conversation that should only be held in private corners of a room. But divorce happens, and we should lean in when Adele—a 15-time Grammy Award winner—is telling her listeners it's okay to talk about the good, the bad, and the ugly of divorce.
