Adele was fitted with a stoma (which she nicknamed Audrey) in October - a device which allows waste to be diverted out of the body and into a bag.
When it was fitted, doctors told the former Big Brother contestant she might not be able to go to the toilet normally ever again.
She recently ran the London marathon with her stoma bag.
Adele, who is in a relationship with Kate Holderness, became even more famous when she appeared on I’m A Celeb in 2019.
