How to explain to child

My husband has just recently adopted my 4 1/2 year old daughter. Her father (my ex-husband) has been in her life since birth. Recently she just started asking when she will see him again and also is talking about him a lot which she never did before.

Does anyone have any advice on how to explain the situation without completing crushing the child? She is a very bright and perceptive child who is able to reason somewhat. I can explain why she needs to do something such as her medicine or swim lessons and she completely understands it.

I'm not sure how to tell her about this.
