Does Adele's note to fans mean she's never touring again?

There's no question that Adele's '25' tour was a long, gruelling trip that traversed the globe and sold out arenas on several continents and it seems like it might have been the straw that broke the camel's back for the singer, in terms of touring.

Last night, Adele played the first of four huge gigs at Wembley Stadium that will mark the official end of the '25' tour, and she also shared a note with fans in the concert programme explaining exactly why she feels reluctant to tour again, and how she wanted to end in London because "I don't know if I'll ever tour again and so I want my last time to be at home".

It read:

"So this is it. After 15 months on the road and 18 months of 25, we are at the end. We have taken this tour across uk+ Ireland, throughout Europe, all over America and I finally got to go to Australia and New Zealand too. Touring is a peculiar thing, it doesn't suit me particularly well. I'm a real homebody and I get so much joy in the small things. Plus I'm dramatic and have a terrible history of touring. Until now that is!

I've done 119 shows and these last 4 will take me up to 123, it has been hard but an absolute thrill and pleasure to have done. I only ever did this tour for you and to hopefully have an impact on you the way that some of my favourite artists have had on me live. And I wanted my final shows to be in London because I don't know if I'll ever tour again and so I want my last time to be at home. Thank you for coming, for all of your ridiculous love and kindness. I will remember all of this for the rest of my life. Love you. Goodnight for now. Adele"
