Lily Allen and David Harbour have separated, according to People.
The British singer/songwriter and the Stranger Things star were married for four years, tying the knot during an intimate Las Vegas ceremony in 2020. They were dating for at least a year prior to that, first sparking dating rumors in 2019 after meeting on the dating app Raya.
Billboard has reached out to both parties’ reps for comment.
The news comes shortly after Allen revealed on her Miss Me? podcast that she was “really not in a good place” lately. “I’ve been spiraling and spiraling and spiraling and it’s got out of control,” she said in January. “I just can’t concentrate on anything except the pain that I’m going through.”
At the time, the “Smile” singer also shut down rumors that she had “relapsed” after previously being open about her struggles with substance abuse. “I know there’s been some horrible blind items on the internet about me being found by my husband in a crack den being surrounded by men,” she added. “I don’t know who’s spreading these vicious rumors, but that’s not true.”
When they got married, Harbour became stepdad to Allen’s two daughters, Ethel and Marnie, whom she shares with ex-husband Sam Cooper. The girls were in attendance at the 2020 wedding, after which Harbour posted pictures on Instagram — featuring an Elvis impersonator — and wrote, “In a wedding officiated by the king himself, the people’s princess wed her devoted, low born, but kind credit card holder in a beautiful ceremony lit by the ashen skies courtesy of a burning state miles away in the midst of a global pandemic.”
Two years later, Harbour revealed “the exact moment” he fell in love with Allen. “It was our third date,” he shared in a 2022 interview with British GQ. “I was just in this phase, where I was like, ‘I’m just going to be brutally honest about everything, because why lie?’ And I told her something about my life, about my beliefs. … It would take a really extraordinary person to be accepting of the things that I said. And I remember thinking, ‘Wow, that’s somebody I want to be around.’”
Last year, Allen made headlines for joining OnlyFans to sell photos of her feet — something Harbour fully approved of, she revealed in July. “He thinks it’s great,” the singer said on Miss Me? at the time.
