Adele hails ‘beautiful’ concert proposal

Adele's first full concert at the O2 in London last night wasn't just special for the chart-topping singer.

It was also a memorable evening for one pair in the audience, who got engaged while she was performing her version of Make You Feel My Love.

"That was the most beautiful thing I've ever witnessed at one of my shows," said Adele as she gave the happy couple a hug.

Here's how NME reported on the proposal on its Twitter feed.

The pair — later identified as Natalie King and Johnny Biggle from south London — were among several fans the singer invited to join her on stage, with others including a smartly dressed young boy called Seb.

Adele will be back at the O2 later for the second of the eight concerts she is playing at the North Greenwich venue.
