Is Lily Allen about to pull a Taylor Swift, y’all??
From what we’ve heard, the Smile singer is going through one of the most devastating breakups ever. Sources close to Lily say she thought she and David Harbour were endgame, the real deal. She just ADORED him — as did her girls.
But near as we can tell, he got bored and started looking around at what else was out there, reactivating his Raya dating app profile and perusing ladies on Instagram. Lily suspected he had started cheating on her when they broke up just before the holidays and even started to obsessively investigate.
That’s what we’ve heard anyway. All Lily has confirmed is that she was “not in a good place,” admitting on her Miss Me? podcast that she was “spiraling and spiraling.” She didn’t say why, but we think we have a pretty good idea. What this man took from her, UGH. Not just the romance but we’re talking the father figure to her kids, her dreams of family and growing old together. Damn. It was reportedly enough to drive her to check herself into a trauma treatment center.
But maybe it’ll also be enough to get her back into the studio??
Also on her podcast recently she revealed she was looking to get back to making music. She told co-host Miquita Oliver — before taking a break from the pod this year — that she was looking to drop an album THIS YEAR!
“I’m doing a little bit of work on myself in this beginning period of the year, then I’m going to do some more writing… hopefully get an album out by the end of the year.”
Hell yes, girl!
That would be her first album in seven years, since 2018’s No Shame. And that album was also a breakup album, immediately following her divorce from Sam Cooper. And you know what? Lost My Mind was a banger!
Lily apparently had been working on new music for months before the breakup, but we imagine this is going to really change the direction of the whole thing. And thank goodness!
We can only imagine what depths she’ll reach into to exorcise thoughts of David and other women from her mind — and how many other women will benefit from having something to listen to when they get driven mad by cheating jerks!
