Singer Lily Allen turned 40 years old last week and celebrated her special day with her closest friends and family
Lily Allen made sure to thank her friends for helping her celebrate her birthday under ‘tricky circumstances’ following her split from David Harbour. The Smile singer, who turned 40 last week, split from the Stranger Things actor last year and entered a treatment centre earlier this year in order to process the breakdown of her marriage.
In March, Lily opened up about the split for the first time during a live recording of her podcast at the Hackney Empire in London, telling the crowd: “I am not over it. I am sort of running away. Maybe I will have a nervous breakdown.” Following their split, it was also claimed their relationship broke down due to him ” cheating” on the songstress with a costume designer he met on a film set.

It was claimed that the relationship between David and the costume designer lasted three years, with him allegedly paying for her to fly out to Australia when he was filming Stranger Things. He was also reportedly spotted on a celebrity dating app during his marriage to Lily.
While working through a tough few months, Alfie singer Lily celebrated her milestone 40th birthday with her closest friends and family by her side.
The star enjoyed an intimate party in her backyard with her loved ones as they feasted on delicious food, a gorgeous birthday cake, endless drinks and more. In pictures shared online, the guests were seen sitting at dinner tables set up in a backyard.
Among the guests at her intimate party were fashion designers Kim Jones OBE and Katie Hillier, close pal and podcast co-host Miquita Oliver, Phoebe Oliver, Gracie Allen and chef Andi Oliver.
Following her party, Lily thanked her friends in a post shared on Instagram. Along with a picture of a cake, she said: “Thank you to all my beauty friends and family who showed up for me and made my birthday a special one under some tricky circumstances. Love you all.”
David recently talked about his personal life in a new chat. . The New York native revealed that recently, he had let himself go “physically and emotionally.”
It came just hours after he confirmed their split after ditching his wedding ring on the red carpet at the premiere for the Marvel movie, Thunderbolts.
David said: “I can go to these dark places.” He also found solace in Buddhist monks he first met when he went through a rough period in his thirties, and still goes to see them every couple of years. “You just talk about life,” he said of his time at the monastery in Escondido, California.
However, he hasn’t been to the monastery in the past few years as “things have been busy” for him. When prompted directly about his split from Lily, David gave a two-word response. “Oh boy,” he commented. But he later opened up about his reasoning for remaining silent.
“I’m protective of the people and the reality of my life,” he said. He added to GQ Magazine that he didn’t see the point in engaging with the interest surrounding the split as it had been based on “hysterical hyperbole.”
