Adele left partially deaf from rare infection ‘worse than childbirth’

Adele has revealed she’s a ‘bit deaf’ in one ear after an agonising infection.

The singer, 36, told fans that she was suffering from pain ‘worse than childbirth’ after contracting a rare water bacteria while she was in Munich in August for a ten-day residency.

Talking about her health battle on stage in Las Vegas on Friday, the Hello hitmaker explained: ‘I have an ear infection, which is pretty grim.

‘I’ve never had one before. It’s the most painful thing that’s ever, ever happened to me.

‘It was worse than childbirth. It’s a rare water bacteria. It’s very hard to treat.’

According to The Sun, Adele was left wanting to ‘chop [her] ear off’ after being prescribed the wrong antibiotics.

 

She went on: ‘I was on the wrong antibiotics for a few days and they managed to give me one that started to work.

‘I wanted to chop my ear off a few times.

‘I’m no longer in pain, which is great but I’m a bit deaf in my left ear!’

This isn’t the first time Adele has been open about some health battles she’s faced, after revealing a particularly uncomfortable infection in 2013.

‘And I sweat a lot and it doesn’t go anywhere. So basically I just sit in my own sweat.’
