Lily Allen ‘very upset’ as ex-husband David Harbour ‘dating model 22 years his junior’ just two months after split from singer
David Harbour has reportedly begun dating 27-year-old model Ellie Fallon, just two months after his split from singer Lily Allen.
The Stranger Things actor, 49, is seeing the aspiring actress and model who is 22 years his junior, sources claimed yesterday.
The pair are believed to have known each other for several months after meeting in Atlanta, where Harbour has been filming the final series of Stranger Things.
Fallon accompanied Harbour on his New Year trip to India, where fans spotted him with what was then described as a “mystery woman”.
The relationship comes after Harbour was caught using celebrity dating app Raya whilst still married to Allen, with whom he split in December.
Friends say Allen, 39, is “very upset” after discovering provocative social media photos of Fallon smoking one of Harbour’s favourite brands of cigar.
The images were posted to Instagram in October, several weeks before Harbour and Allen decided to separate.
“Seeing the picture Ellie posted of herself smoking a cigar, taken weeks before Lily and David called it quits, has convinced her that Ellie and David had been seeing each other before they split,” a source told The Mail on Sunday.
“After all, how many 26-year-olds smoke cigars?” the source added.
Harbour, a known cigar connoisseur, was recently photographed smoking during a walk with actress Scarlett Johansson.
Following the split, Allen spent most of last month at a £10,000-per-week clinic in America.
The singer revealed this week she had been experiencing “emotional turmoil” and is currently “highly medicated” on antidepressants.
Speaking on her podcast Miss Me?, Allen disclosed she underwent group and individual therapy at the treatment centre.
“I needed some time and space away from everything,” she said. “I did lots of shadow work – lots of work about my inner child stuff.”
“I’m not saying I’m 100 per cent there but I’m definitely in a stronger place,” Allen added.
The singer has now returned to New York to see her two children and is planning to return with them to London.
“She feels so much better for having drowned out all the noise,” a source said.
Harbour and Allen first met on celebrity dating app Raya in 2019, marrying in Las Vegas a year later in a ceremony officiated by an Elvis impersonator.

The couple shared a home in Brooklyn before their relationship ended in December, when Allen reportedly discovered Harbour was active on Raya.
That same month, Harbour was spotted at a temple in the Himalayas with Fallon, after pulling out of a planned safari with Allen and her daughters.
The actor made his first public appearance since the split at last Friday’s Critics Choice Awards in Los Angeles.
Arriving alone on the red carpet, Harbour appeared in good spirits and was notably without his wedding ring.
“Whatever David is doing with his life is his business,” a source close to Allen said. “He obviously has his own issues he needs to work through and it’s got nothing to do with her any more.”
