Adele is officially the richest, young British star after boosting her wealth by £15 million. The singer has topped Heat magazine’s annual guide to the UK’s wealthiest names aged 30 and under, with an estimated £147.5 million, up from £132 million the year before, reports DailyMail.co.uk.
Although she’s been keeping a low profile since finishing her world tour last summer, Adele still manages to be a cash-magnet — in 2017 alone she pocketed £9million from record sales, while that tour earned her a massive £42million. Ed Sheeran is second with around £94mn. The 27-year old singer songwriter knocks Harry Potter actor Daniel Radcliffe in to third place for the first time.

The top 10 also sees Little Mix move from tenth to sixth place this year with £48 million, partly thanks to concerts and endorsements, from dry shampoo to fashion dolls. Harry Styles is in fourth place at £58 million, the highest earning ex-One Direction star, followed by The Beauty and the Beast actress Emma Watson at £55 million.
