Adele has announced she will perform at the Brit Awards next Tuesday.

The 33-year-old popstar confirmed the news on Instagram following media reports which suggested she had been due to appear at the event but had pulled out.

She posted: “Hiya, so I’m really happy to say that I am performing at the Brits next week!!”

Adele also appeared to address rumours she had split from her boyfriend, US sports agent Rich Paul, adding: “Oh, and Rich sends his love.”

It comes after the star postponed her Las Vegas residency at short notice. Grammy-winning country musician Keith Urban will step in to replace her.
