New York parents-to-be Chris Dare and his wife, Shantelle Lord, recently went to see Adele’s residency in Las Vegas with a sign reading “Adele will you do our gender reveal?”

It worked, as they were eventually called to the front of the stage as the singer paused her show for the big moment.

Adele took the special envelope from the 18-week pregnant Shantelle, who revealed they’d saved the news for 6 weeks just on the chance this moment would happen.

Adele didn’t make them wait any longer, ripping open the envelope and announcing,

“Shantelle and Chris are having a baby boy! That was amazing. I’m so happy for you! That’s so emotional, oh my god”
