Move over Coleen Rooney, there’s a new celebrity super sleuth. Lily Allen turned to Wagatha Christie to find out if her husband David Harbor was looking for a new romance
The singer unleashed an impressive set of skills after suspecting her husband was cheating, and was left in ‘agony’ when she discovered he had a secret profile on celeb dating app Raya.
Former England football star Wayne Rooney’s wife Coleen has been dubbed ‘Wagatha Christie’ after she turned online detective and identified fellow WAG Rebekah Vardy as the apparent leaker of stories about her.
“Lily only got back together with Raya to find out if he was seeing anyone,” the insider continued.
‘Lily hasn’t even looked at anyone since she met David. She’s devastated. He broke up with Lily a month ago. He was supposed to be on holiday with her in Kenya for Christmas.’
Harbour’s dating profile, exclusively revealed by the MoS, reads: ‘Visiting New York from Atlanta’ and ‘closet nerd playing tough guys on your TV’.
He calls his profile song Houses Of The Holy by Led Zeppelin.
Harbor describes herself as living in Atlanta, Georgia, 800 miles from the family home in Brooklyn, New York, where the couple moved in 2020 while Allen enrolled her children in local schools.
He bought a house in Atlanta last year so he could be closer to the Stranger Things set.
The show ended filming the fifth and final series just before Christmas. Allen’s circle of friends in London say she has believed since the fall that her husband is interested in other women.
Raya is so exclusive that it only accepts about 8 percent of applications, but it has more than 10,000 members, 100,000 of whom are on the waiting list. In the photo: Harbour’s dating profile

By the time the couple broke up about a month ago, she had become convinced he had a secret girlfriend.
The singer has not made any public statements about her relationship with Harbor since it emerged they parted ways in December, but a friend of the Top 10 singer confirmed they had officially “parted ways.”
David has previously spoken about his penchant for a whirlwind romance. “I get carried away easily, but I try not to be,” the Stranger Things actor told Women’s Health in October 2017.
“I’m better at the fantasy of relationships than in everyday real life, but I’m trying to steer myself towards being a realist,” he added.
He continued, “What I find most exciting right now are sharp, intelligent and insightful women. People who think deeply, who have a strange way of looking at the universe, are extremely attractive to me. So if I can find one of those girls who can stand me, then I might have something.”
The actor has a history of dating fellow stage actors and enjoyed a three-year relationship with Broadway veteran Maria Thayler from 2008 to 2011, with the pair even getting engaged.
Shortly after their split, David went public with actress Julia Stiles after the two starred together in the 2012 film Between Us.
They dated for four years, walking several red carpets together and moving in together in New York, before eventually splitting up.

‘What a generous, big-hearted, roaring wonder of someone I get to walk around with and do things with. Like eating food and reading books out loud and watching our dog sleep. And isn’t that great? What an inflamed soul, what a spirit of fire.”
‘What a brilliant artist. What a caring, profound, intuitive person, who completely changed my life. What a lucky woman I am.’
Just over a year later, the pair had ended their relationship, shortly before David met Lily on Raya.
