Lily Allen and David Harbour, former partners, anxious about dividing up shared assets

Pop artist Lily Allen and actor David Harbour are navigating the complex end of their five-year marriage, with substantial assets and family arrangements on the line. Reports indicate that both are uneasy about attending face-to-face mediation sessions to finalize the split.

Sources reveal that the couple must divide extensive shared property, handle the sale of their New York City townhouse, and determine the schedule for David's time with Lily's children. Despite the separation, David is determined to remain actively involved in the kids' lives, which Lily reportedly supports due to the strong bond her daughters have with him.

The Smile singer, 40, and the Stranger Things star, 50, married in September 2020 and parted ways in early 2025. This marked David's first marriage, while Lilys previous marriage to builder Sam Cooper ended after seven years; they share daughters Ethel, 14, and Marnie, 12.

Following the split, Lily released a new album, which critics suggest contains pointed lyrics directed at David, accusing him of infidelity that contributed to the breakdown of their marriage.

Insiders note that while Lily is agreeable to her daughters spending time with David, she is hesitant about increasing personal interactions with him. The situation is described as incredibly awkward, particularly with David reportedly struggling with public scrutiny from both Lilys music and recent allegations of on-set disputes involving his Stranger Things co-star Millie Bobby Brown.

The divorce discussions are expected to be contentious, fueled by accusations of infidelity and the highly publicized nature of Lilys musical response to their split.
