How David Harbour is handling the demise of his 'rocky' marriage to Lily Allen
David Harbour, known for his role in "Stranger Things," is currently focusing on each day as he deals with the potential end of his marriage to singer Lily Allen, as well as the wrapping up of the Netflix show that brought him fame, according to sources who spoke to DailyMail.com.
Friends of the 49-year-old actor have confirmed to DailyMail.com that he has officially parted ways with the 39-year-old Allen, bringing clarity to the ongoing rumors surrounding their five-year relationship. According to sources, the couple has officially "split" after months of speculation.
The divide has been solidified even more after Allen unexpectedly popped up on the celebrity dating app Raya. An insider unrelated to the singer provided proof of her active profile to DailyMail.com.
"His life is undergoing significant changes, but he's handling it well," a source shared exclusively. "The filming of 'Stranger Things' has wrapped up, his relationship with Lily is essentially at an end, and while this is affecting him deeply, he has faced significant challenges in the past that have equipped him to cope with these transitions."
The source shared insights on how Harbour's previous struggles with alcoholism and bipolar disorder have prepared him for his current challenges. They noted, "He has faced some difficult times, but he has managed to overcome them and come out stronger on the other side."
Even though he’s facing personal challenges, Harbour has discovered comfort in his job. According to a source, "He’s fully immersing himself in his work to help him cope with his difficulties and heartache. His career is going well, so he’s enthusiastically embracing all the opportunities it offers."
Despite the situation, friends still believe there’s a chance the couple might get back together. They were married in September 2020, during the COVID-19 lockdown in New York.
According to a source, "In an alternate reality, he and Lily reconcile and resolve their issues. However, both of them are considering the advantages and disadvantages of rekindling their romance. He has deep feelings for her, but their relationship has always been quite tumultuous for reasons that aren't clear. They often end up irritating each other, even though they are truly well-suited for one another."
David Harbour, known for his role in Stranger Things, is dealing with the potential end of his marriage to singer Lily Allen by approaching each day as it comes.
Friends of the 49-year-old actor have confirmed to DailyMail.com that he and the 39-year-old Allen have officially ended their relationship. This news comes after months of speculation surrounding their five-year romance.
The divide has been strengthened by Allen's unexpected appearance on the celebrity dating app Raya. A source unrelated to the singer provided proof of the star's active profile to DailyMail.com.
In the meantime, Allen seems to be checking out her possibilities on the private dating app Raya, where she was seen just last week. The mother of two has a profile that can be seen by female users, and it includes a playful bio that mentions she’s "looking for someone to begin couples therapy with." She also notes that she is "in Los Angeles visiting from New York."
"They're caught in a strange back-and-forth that could be understood, but they're facing challenges that have really affected them lately. The chances of them rebuilding a strong and caring relationship are about even," the source shared.
They are both trying to maintain the situation, but neither is willing to put in the necessary work.
The couple has shared their experience of meeting through a dating app. Harbour mentioned to GQ Hype, "I was in London by myself, using the app to go on dates and things like that. That's when I began chatting with her."
"She happened to be in Italy then. We met up and went on a date at the Wolseley, a restaurant in Mayfair, and honestly, she's just incredible."
DailyMail.com has contacted representatives for both Allen and Harbour to request their comments.
This announcement follows closely on the heels of Allen's confession on her podcast, where she shared that she's currently struggling mentally and feeling disillusioned with relationships.
A friend informed DailyMail.com that Allen had signed up for Raya, but she wasn't actively looking for romantic connections. This is partly because she is still in the process of getting a divorce and places significant importance on the institution of marriage.
Nonetheless, friends haven't entirely dismissed the possibility of the couple reconciling. They got married in September 2020 during the COVID-19 lockdown in New York.
A friend shared with DailyMail.com that Allen created a profile on Raya, but she isn't actively looking for dates. This is partly because she hasn't finalized her divorce yet and is someone who values marriage deeply.
Last year, Allen stopped following Harbour on social media, and a source told The Sun that the two were 'leading separate lives.'
In the midst of ongoing rumors about her personal life, the artist known for "Not Fair" posted a video on Instagram on Monday. The footage showed a group of lions feasting on a zebra's body.
"The cycle of life. Harsh," wrote the British artist in the mysterious post.
Allen has been in the news lately for various projects, including offering pictures of her feet on OnlyFans. She says this venture has been more profitable for her than the money she earns from music streaming.
She posted on social media platform X that she earned more from having 1,000 subscribers for pictures of her feet than she does from the royalties generated by her nearly 8 million monthly listeners on Spotify.
