During the December cover story for Rolling Stone, Adele opened up about everything from her love life to her plans connected to her upcoming album "30." In the piece, Adele also discusses the real meaning behind the viral song title "I Drink Wine." A heavy theme on the album is Adele grappling with her divorce from Simon Konecki, with whom she shares a son from 2012, Angelo.

"I took everything so personally at that period of time in my life, so the lyric 'I hope I learn to get over myself' is like 'Once I've done that, then maybe I can let you love me'," Adele said. "It made it less intimidating, because some of the things I'm talking about really hit home for a lot of people."

In addition to Adele's live performance of "I Drink Wine" during her concert airing, Adele also sat down with Oprah for an interview. "From a very young age I promised myself that when I had kids that we'd stay together and we would be that united family and I tried for a really, really long time. I was so disappointed for my son. I was so disappointed for myself," she said.
