ADELE certainly has her pick of superstar friends - from Elton John to Jennifer Lawrence.  But Adele still keeps to her London roots with some of her more down-to-earth friendships. We told how ex-Enders Sid Owen, 49, has invited pal Adele, 33, to his upcoming wedding to girlfriend Victoria Shores.  Sid - who played Ricky Butcher on the BBC soap - is friends with the singer through her charity CEO ex husband Simon Konecki.  The actor said: “She’s not with my best friend Simon any more but, of course, out of respect she will be invited.

EASTENDERS legend Sid Owen is planning a very star-studded wedding - with Al Pacino and Adele both on the guestlist. The 49-year-old - famous for playing Ricky Butcher on the soap - is getting married to sweetheart Victoria Shores, who he's having a baby with.

After exclusively announcing his engagement to new fiancée Victoria Shores, the former EastEnders star sat down with OK! VIP's to reveal his plans for the future.The actor explained that EastEnders have "left the door open" as his character has not been killed off.

Speaking to The New Yorker, Rich said in reference to a “major pop star”: “She was over yesterday.’”Writer Isaac Chotiner then asked what they were doing when Rich replied: “Hanging out.”However, at the time, he added: “I’m not dating, I’m single.

Adele has kept her private life out of the spotlight since she shot to fame as a teenager. However, that doesn’t stop people from speculating.

Sid Owen has revealed he and girlfriend Victoria Shores are engaged and expecting their first child together in a new shoot exclusively for OK!. And as he discussed wedding plans with us, the former EastEnders star spilled the beans on another big day that he was a huge part of – Adele and Simon Konecki's nuptials back in 2016.

As Ricky Butcher in EastEnders, Sid Owen became a massive star. He came in to the soap in 1988, and his storylines always drew in massive numbers.

Before we caught up with Sid Owen and his new fiancée, Victoria Shores, we weren’t sure what to expect. After all, the former party boy isn’t one to talk about his love life and has spent much of the last decade a single man.
