According to Yahoo! Sports, the actor said in the interview she felt "let down by her father", an alcoholic who would leave his family. Adele stated "she definitely had a yearning for him, because he didn't really deliver for me."
Continuing, the Hello singer revealed, "I didn't really have his attention, he'd say he would come and then he didn't, and if he did come, we'd only go out for like half an hour and then he'd drop me home."
Commenting on her father's absence from her life, Adele said, "He had a disease, he was a really big alcoholic and he had loads of demons, but I didn't really understand that when I was younger."

According to the Mirror, she was able to make peace with her father, stating, "I made the peace with him when I found out he was sick. And we really got on, which was amazing, but also sad because he was really funny."
She added, "He is really funny and I don't remember that when I was little. We laughed and we gossiped and we cried. It was great for both of us."
According to smoothradio.com, Adele revealed that she finally felt closure after visiting her dad. Adele's father Mark Evans, passed away from bowel cancer in May 2021.
"My dad's absolute lack of presence and effort...But I finally understood that it was the alcohol... It took my dad from me."

Adele added, "It was hard but it was definitely one of the biggest moments of my life in a good way, when I went to go and see him."
During a Zoom call the two had in 2021, Adele played her dad songs from her 30 album. She commented, "His favorites were all of my favorites, which was amazing. So it was very, very healing [and] when he died, it was literally like the wound closed up." I felt that huge gaping hole filled"
There was one song, To Be Loved, that she seemed to really want her father to hear from the album. "The song explores how her dad's absence affected her ability to trust."
Adele added, "It was amazing for me and him. I think he could listen to me sing it, but not saying it - we are very similar like that."
