Adele has opened up about why a permanent return to the UK is not currently on the cards.
The London-born superstar, 35, relocated to Los Angeles in 2016, having previously explained that the move offered her far more space and value for money.
Despite now being reported to have a net worth of around £146million, Adele says the pull of England still is not strong enough to tempt her back full-time.
Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, the Grammy-winning singer said the Californian climate plays a major role in her decision, explaining: ‘I get really bad seasonal depression, so the weather is good for me. It is strange sometimes, because I’m very British.
‘Because it’s a bit harder for me to go out nowadays, what I love the most about L.A. is everyone goes to each other’s houses. I like that.’

During the same interview, Adele also offered a rare glimpse into her romance with sports agent Rich Paul, 41.
She said: ‘Rich and I have always known everything about each other since the day we got together.
‘Richard does[listen to my music], it drives me insane. And it’s funny because in my car with my driver, he knows if my song comes on, he has to turn the radio, just turn it off. I don’t like it at all.’
Elsewhere, Adele said she would try her hand at acting and is keen for a famous Hollywood star to write the script for ‘the only role she would ever want’.
She said: ‘There is one movie I want to do, but the guy whose movie it would be, he’s not mentally ready to write the script for it. I bug him every now and then about it, but he’s just not there yet. But that’s the only role I ever want, because I think I’d nail it.’
Adele previously told British Vogue that she invested in three Beverly Hills mansions in order to get better value for her dollar.
‘The kind of house I have in LA I could never afford in London. Ever,’ the Tottenham native told the outlet.
Adele said that she had ‘looked at houses’ in London before coming to the conclusion and moving Stateside in 2016.
‘It’s like hundreds of millions of pounds,’ she said. ‘I don’t have that much money at all. I’d throw up.’

Adele bought Sylvester Stallone’s eight-bedroom, 12-bathroom home in January last year, saddling her with a colossal $37.7million mortgage.
Sylvester previously revealed how a statue of his character Rocky from the 1976 American sports drama film, which overlooks the huge outdoor pool, helped secure the deal.
The actor had been planning on taking the stoneware with him, when Adele insisted she wanted it to stay with the property.
He told the Wall Street Journal: ‘She said: “That’s a no deal. That’s gonna blow the whole deal”. She wanted the statue.’
Adele is now ripping up the massive mansion and making it her own in a huge renovation project.
