Stranger Things star David Harbor is ‘taking life one day at a time’ as he navigates the possible end of his marriage to singer Lily Allen and the conclusion of the Netflix series that made him a household name, sources have told DailyMail.com revealed.
The 49-year-old actor’s split from Allen, 39, has been confirmed by friends of the Smile hitmaker, who told DailyMail.com that the couple have officially split after months of speculation about their five-year relationship.
The rift has been further cemented by Allen’s surprise appearance on celebrity dating app Raya, with a source unconnected to the singer sharing evidence of the star’s active profile with DailyMail.com.
“Life as he knows it is changing, but he’s rolling with it,” an insider exclusively revealed. “Filming of Stranger Things is now over, his relationship with Lily is effectively over, and as much as that hits him hard, he has had to overcome major obstacles in his life that have prepared him for such changes.”
The source opened up about how Harbour’s previous battles with alcoholism and bipolar disorder have equipped him to face this latest challenge, explaining: “He’s been to some dark places in his life but has come out of it and been able to get on the right track. other side of everything.’
Despite the personal turmoil, Harbor has found solace in his career. “He dives headlong into his work to pull him out of all his struggles and heartbreak. His career is going well, so he’s happy to ride that train as things stand,” the source added.
However, friends have not completely ruled out a reconciliation between the couple, who tied the knot in September 2020 during New York’s COVID-19 lockdown.
“There’s a world where he and Lily get back together and figure everything out, but they’re both weighing the pros and cons of it all,” the insider revealed. ‘He loves her very much, but they have a relationship that is very rocky for no apparent reason. They just get on each other’s nerves more easily, even though they fit together perfectly.’

Meanwhile, Allen appears to be exploring her options on exclusive dating app Raya, where she was spotted last week. The mother-of-two’s profile, visible to female users, includes a tongue-in-cheek bio that says she’s “looking for someone to start relationship therapy with” and indicates she’s “visiting Los Angeles from New York.”
“It’s a weird dance they’re playing and maybe it can be figured out, but there are current conflicts that have taken their toll lately. For them, returning to a solid and loving relationship is 50/50 at best,” the source explains.
“They have to try to keep things going, but they also don’t want to put in the effort that is necessary.”
The couple has previously discussed meeting via a dating app itself, with Harbor narrating GQ hype: ‘I was alone in London and went on dates and stuff through this app. And yes, I started texting her.
‘She was in Italy at the time – we got together and had a date at the Wolseley [a restaurant in Mayfair]and it was, you know, she’s fucking incredible.”
DailyMail.com has contacted representatives for Allen and Harbor for comment.
The news comes just days after Allen admitted on her podcast that she’s “not in a great place mentally” and is “boring men.”
However, a friend told DailyMail.com that Allen had created a profile on Raya but was not actively looking for dates, partly because she is not yet divorced and “she takes marriage very seriously.”

Allen unfollowed Harbor on social media last year and a source claimed to The Sun at the time that the couple were “living separate lives.”
Amid ongoing speculation about her relationship, the Not Fair hitmaker took to her Instagram on Monday, where she uploaded a video of a pride of lions devouring a zebra carcass.
‘That circle of life. Brutal,” the British singer wrote in the cryptic post.
Allen has also made headlines for other ventures lately, including selling photos of her feet on OnlyFans — a move she says has proven more lucrative than her music streaming revenue.
