Did Adele tease her new hot single on British television? Fans think so! The British singer/songwriter and Grammy-winner Adele may have given fans a sneak-peek into her new song with a 30 second clip that flashed across the screen while the X Factor was airing in the UK. Her first release since 2012’s Skyfall album, the song was a briefly teased on the television during a commercial break. The lyrics?  “Hello/ It’s me/ I was wondering if after all these years you’d like to meet/ To go over/ Everything,” the voice believed to be Adele sang: “They say that time’s supposed to heal ya/ but I ain’t done much healing.” Then, the screen fades to black with three white dots stretched across the screen as ellipses.

Dragon’s Den star Hilary Devey admits she shared a bed with her son until he was 10 and that at the age of 29 he is still welcome to come and sit on her bed with her.  The 58 year old’s comments sparked debate which she is strongly defending – saying her decision to sleep beside her only son Mevlit for so long is due to her ‘mother’s instinct’, in which she claims she knew what was best for him at the time. She told DailyMail “I slept with my son because the advice then was to sleep with them” she continues to say “he’s 29 now and the advice then was to sleep with them because I think a mother’s instinct means you know when your child is ill, you know it inside, you know when something is wrong. He slept in my bed, in fact I couldn’t get him out. He was sleeping in my bed until he was probably ten, nine or ten”. According to some experts , “co-sleeping” with children is not that strange or unusual, as it was actually quite common for poorer families to share beds “out of necessity”  because there was only so much space in their homes.

He is not being filmed for KUTWK, as was previously suggested by some outlets. (via ReelWorld).
