NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Months of speculation surrounding Lily Allen and David Harbour's relationship has now taken a dramatic turn, with sources reporting the couple has called it quits.

For context, Allen and Harbour first crossed paths on the dating app Raya and tied the knot in Las Vegas in 2020. 

Their wedding, officiated by an Elvis Presley impersonator, was an intimate affair attended by Allen’s daughters, Marnie Rose, 12, and Ethel Mary, 13, whom she shares with her ex-husband, Sam Cooper.

According to official sources shared with PEOPLE, 39-year-old singer Lily Allen and 49-year-old ‘Stranger Things’ actor David Harbour have separated after four years of marriage.

An insider revealed on Monday, January 03, "Her marriage has been crumbling, and they have split." Once inseparable, the couple had increasingly been spending more time apart.

The breakup rumors surfaced when Allen was reportedly seen on the exclusive dating app Raya toward the end of 2024. Daily Mail reported that her profile featured a playful bio that read, "Looking for someone to start couples therapy with."

This bio fueled online speculation, with many interpreting it as a sign that her marriage was in trouble. However, a friend of Allen later clarified that she wasn’t actively seeking dates and emphasized that she was still legally married and took her marriage very seriously.

Just weeks after marriage rumors began swirling, Lily Allen subtly addressed personal struggles during an episode of her 'Miss Me?' podcast in January.

She confided, "I’m finding it hard to be interested in anything. I’m really not in a good place. I know I’ve been talking about it for months, but I’ve been spiraling and spiraling. It’s got out of control. I’ve tried."

Her candid remarks only fueled speculation about the state of her marriage. Fans quickly noticed that Allen and Harbour had not been seen together for some time.

Additionally, reports suggest that the couple, once frequent red-carpet fixtures who often shared affectionate posts on social media, have increasingly led separate lives over the past year.

MEAWW previously reported that Lily Allen was reportedly devastated after discovering her now-separated husband, David Harbour's secret profile on the dating app Raya. 

Although the couple initially met on the app and deleted their accounts afterward, Harbour has since rejoined. His new profile on Raya read, "Visiting New York from Atlanta" and "Closet nerd that plays tough guys on your TV," with the song 'Houses of the Holy' by Led Zeppelin set as his profile song.

Suspicious of her husband's intentions, Allen suspected he might be cheating. She reportedly rejoined the app under the guise of looking for women to play detective. 

A source told Daily Mail, "Lily was looking for women that were on Raya and cross-referencing them with women David follows on Instagram to try to figure out who he was seeing." 

Another insider shared, "Lily only rejoined Raya to try to figure out whether he was seeing someone. Lily has never even looked at anyone since she met David. She is devastated. He broke up with Lily a month ago. He was meant to be on holiday with her in Kenya over Christmas."

A friend of Allen added, "The last few months have been truly agony for Lily. He finally called it off a month ago and she is devastated."
