Lily Allen in 'stronger place' after checking into treatment facility to heal from David Harbour split

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Lily Allen, who took time to focus on her mental health after separating from David Harbour, said she is stronger where she is now. 

The 'Not Fair' singer opened up on seeking treatment to work through emotional struggles after breaking off from four years of marriage with 'Stranger Things' actor.

Lily Allen says she needed to get away 'from everything'

During the Thursday, February 13, episode of her and Miquita Oliver's 'Miss Me?' podcast, Lily Allen shared that she had checked into a treatment facility to prioritize her well-being.

"I went into a treatment center for a few weeks, which was great," Allen, 39, said.

"I did lots of group therapy and some individual therapy. I needed some time and space away from everything. I did a lot of shadow work, lots of work about my inner child stuff," she added.

Allen acknowledged the difficulties of the healing process. "It wasn't easy by any stretch and it's a journey," she said.

"It's a lifelong journey of healing. It's not a quick fix, but I've started meditating. I meditate every day now, at least two or three times a day. That's really helping me," the 'Hard Out Here' singer said, OK! News reported. 

Lily Allen explains why she had to step away for her daughters

Making the decision to enter treatment was challenging for Lily Allen, but she knew it was necessary to be a better mother to her daughters, Ethel, 13, and Marnie, 11, whom she shares with ex-husband Sam Cooper.

"I know people think I hate my children. I really don't," Allen said, adding "I absolutely adore my children. I'm in a situation now where I really have to be my strongest self for them."

"I felt like it was getting harder and harder for me to be able to show up for them in the way that they needed me to," she noted.

"It was a really big decision to have to leave them for a few weeks to go and focus on myself," she continued.

"But ultimately, it was for them. Yes, it's for me, but it's for them so that I can get us through this bit. I needed some help to be able to do that," she said.

Lily Allen says 'none of this' is fault of her children 

Lily Allen stressed that she never wanted her children to feel responsible for her struggles.

"None of this is their fault," she said, adding "It's my job to support them and make them feel safe and secure."

"I just don't think I was able to do that because of the emotional turmoil I was in at the time. But I do feel like I am now," Allen added.

She acknowledged that she is still working through the healing process but has made significant progress.

"I'm not saying I'm 100 percent there. I'm not saying that I'm getting it 100 percent right or ever will. But I'm definitely in a stronger place," Allen said.
