Lily Allen hints David Harbour cheated on her in scathing ‘West End Girl’ lyrics
Lily Allen implies David Harbour is a “sex addict” who cheated on her in her bombshell new “West End Girl” album.
The Grammy nominee’s 14-track record, out Friday, features scathing lyrics, seemingly describing the breakdown of her and the actor’s marriage.
While she doesn’t directly name-drop the “Stranger Things” star, Allen sings about a relationship being “open” when her partner “went astray” on the track “Dallas Major.”
She accuses her partner of having a “double life” in “P–sy Palace,” reflecting on the time she discovered a stash of adult toys, lube and “hundreds” of condoms.
In “4chan Stan,” Allen seemingly exposes Harbour for a receipt she found for a designer purse from Bergdorf Goodman.
“You took someone shopping there in May 24,” she sings. “You bought her a handbag, it wasn’t cheap
/ I was in London, probably asleep.”
She continues in the song, “Why won’t you tell me what her name is? This is outrageous / What, is she famous?”
In “Tennis,” the songwriter describes confronting her husband over texts with a woman named Madeline, wanting to know whether “it was just sex, or is there emotion?”
Allen, who married Harbour in 2020, went on to specify the “arrangement” in her union, which was, “Be discreet and don’t be blatant / There had to be payment / It had to be with strangers.”
Lyrics from “Ruminating” include a desire to still be her partner’s “No. 1” after he hooks up with someone while she’s away.
Similarly, Allen sings in “Sleepwalking” about “girls in [his] bed” and not having any “romance since [they] wed.”
Reps for Harbour and Allen did not immediately respond to Page Six’s requests for comment.
Allen spoke about the “betrayal” her album is centered around in a Perfect Magazine interview, published Tuesday.
“There are definitely some things that happened in my real life that are reflected on this record,” she confessed.
“Two people who were once together are not together. And that’s really sad. It’s hard. It’s hard for me to not have my person, you know?”
News broke of Allen and Harbour’s separation in February after rampant divorce rumors, with the former revealing that same month that she had gone to a treatment center for “emotional turmoil.”
The “Smile” singer filed for divorce last month.
Harbour has yet to address the breakup, but made headlines in April for awkwardly dodging questions about Allen.
While the union marked Harbour’s first time tying the knot, Allen was previously married to Sam Cooper, with whom she shares two kids.
