What happened between Lily Allen and David Harbour?

There have been no explicit public statements from Lily or David about the state of their relationship, but the rumors that they had broken up really started after Lily appeared on the BBC Sounds podcast Miss Me? During that podcast appearance, Lily was asked whether she would be spending Christmas alone, and she answered the question in a way that suggested she would be.

Lily said that she would be making Christmas dinner alone, and also discussed the traditions she would missing out on in New York City with David and her children, Ethel and Marnie. Lily also said that she would be flying from the U.S. to London and then to Nairobi, Kenya during the holiday season, and added that she had briefly forgotten that she had tickets to see The Nutcracker at Lincoln Center with her family.

That answer left many wondering about her relationship status, and The Daily Mail has additionally reported that Lily appears to have reactivated her account on Raya, the celebrity dating app that she and David first met on. The two got married in 2019 after first meeting on the app, and have not officially confirmed their separation.

According to The Daily Mail, Lily's account on Raya includes the profile blurb: "Looking for someone to start couples therapy with."

Lily and David's breakup is very much still an internet rumor.

Although Lily's answer on the podcast suggests that she might be single, it was far from definitive information, and she has not gone so far as to suggest that she and David are separated or are getting a divorce. It's possible that, for reasons that have more to do with her schedule than anything else, she has decided to be away from him for the holiday season.

Of course, that in combination with the reactivation of an online dating profile does suggest that she's looking to be in a new relationship.

We still don't know exactly what happened, though, and it's unclear whether we ever will. David and Lily were not living a public enough relationship for us to be privy to the end of their relationship.

If we do eventually learn more about the end of their relationship, it will likely come from either David or Lily explaining what happened to us directly. Barring that, though, all we can do is speculate about what might have happened, and about whether their relationship is really over.
