Lily Allen and David Harbour have reportedly separated after four years of marriage.
The report comes from PEOPLE, who write that multiple sources have confirmed their split. An anonymous source added, telling the publication: “Her marriage has been crumbling and they have split”. It is currently unclear when the separation began and if there is hope for reconciliation.
Allen and Stranger Things actor David Harbour began dating in 2019 after meeting on the dating app Raya and tied the knot in an intimate Las Vegas ceremony in September 2020.
Reps for both Allen and Harbour have yet to confirm the reports.
The reports of their split comes a few weeks after Allen announced that she would be taking a temporary break from Miss Me? and other work commitments to focus on her mental health. “I’m really not in a good place,” Allen told co-host Miquita Oliver on an episode of the podcast earlier this month. “I know I’ve been talking about it for months, but I’ve been spiralling and spiralling and spiralling, and it’s got out of control.”
The star said the only thing she could concentrate on was “the pain that I’m going through” amid then-unconfirmed reports that she had split from Harbour. Allen went on to tell listeners that she would be “going away” soon, and said fans wouldn’t hear from her for “a few weeks”.
However, she denied any speculation that she was going to rehab. “I’ve not relapsed,” she assured Oliver. The ‘LDN’ artist also said she was “not allowed” to use her phone where she was going. Allen has since been replaced on the podcast by temporary co-host Mabel.
In another episode of Miss Me? in December, Allen revealed that she had “stopped eating” and was “not in a good place mentally”. She suggested that her ADHD could be playing a part, as it means her body and mind don’t link together properly at times.
The vocalist, who has previously opened up about her sobriety, said last April that she could “lose everything” if she drank alcohol again. She struggled with both binge drinking and drug abuse in her younger years.
Allen and Oliver are set to bring their Miss Me? podcast to a live audience for the first time in March. In other news, Allen has revealed that she is “trying to manifest” getting a new album “out by the end of the year”.
