The performer has become a worldwide phenomenon with her debut album 19 and the follow-up 21 selling millions of copies both at home and abroad.
Her chart-topping releases made the 25-year-old singer the natural choice to sing the theme to the James Bond movie Skyfall - the song that landed her an Oscar earlier this year.
Adele's achievements were recognised with an MBE presented by the Prince of Wales during a Buckingham Palace investiture ceremony.
The performer, who wore a dark turquoise patterned dress, did not stop to speak to the waiting press inside the royal residence.
In the past, the Tottenham-born singer has told how her second album 21 was inspired by a "rubbish relationship", but she has gone on to find love with partner Simon Konecki, the father of her son Angelo.
Adele has enjoyed the longest run ever by a woman at the top of the UK album charts , surpassing Madonna, and she became the first woman to have two singles and two albums in the UK top five at the same time.
Adele - who won a record six Grammy Awards in the US last year - has said she will never write another break-up record as she is "done being a bitter witch".
