Adele loves being a classroom mom.

In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, the singer, 35, chatted about her 11-year-old son Angelo, telling the outlet that she's been getting more involved at her son's school.

"I'm thriving a bit," said Adele. "Now there are so many things that his school does the most, with community vibes, which is fantastic. The kids don't care. The kids don't give a flying f--- who I am."

"And I get, not insecure, but I get nervous around loads of adults and strangers that I don't know. And so making food for school events, it's my dream."

Adele shares her son with ex-husband Simon Konecki.

When the Grammy winner was performing "When We Were Young" during her Weekends with Adele residency at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace in October, she stopped mid-song to greet the doctor who delivered her son back in 2012.

"Oh my God, Colin," the singer said while getting emotional, before walking over toward the audience member, per a video of the encounter. "Oh my God. This is my doctor that gave birth to my baby. I haven't seen you in years."

Elsewhere during the show, Adele opened up about her hopes to add another little one to her life. "I'm desperate for another baby, Colin," Adele told the crowd in Vegas, per another video. "Bloody hell."

The musician has previously spoken about her desire to have another child, as back in August she said the same at another one of her residency gigs. "I really want to be a mom again soon," Adele told the crowd after an audience member asked her for help choosing a baby name.

"I've actually been writing lists," she added. "So every time I see a name that I like, I write it down in my phone."

Adele has opened up about motherhood beyond just her interactions with fans, too. Back in 2022, the singer told Elle that she wanted to give Angelo a sibling. "I definitely want more kids. I’m a homemaker and I’m a matriarch, and a stable life helps me with my music," she said.

"Right now, all I got in my brain is Vegas. I want to f---ing nail it," she added.
