i had in mind that this relationship would have come after the highly public one, and looking at adella's information, she does feel like someone that alfie would have tried to over correct his past mistakes for. alfie's a little different than her in the fact that he's never quiet and thrives in a crowd, but he does tend to be someone who falls head over heels quickly so i could see him just being enamored with the fact that she was more reserved and found her fascinating and would have gone over the top a bit when they first started dating, renting out movie theatres for them to have picnics in the aisles and stupid things like that (he's unabashedly cheesy). the other half of that coin though is that he tends to fall out of that excitement quickly and has never done well with enjoying the more mundane parts of life so he was also probably to blame for the end of their relationship
