Lily Allen and David Harbour, who married in 2020 after meeting on the dating app Raya, separated shortly before Christmas.
Reports suggest that Allen discovered Harbour's active profile on the exclusive dating app Raya, where they initially met in 2019. This revelation has raised concerns about potential infidelity. In a candid discussion on her podcast, Miss Me?, Allen shared that she never shamed her former husband if he was feeling explorative.
Allen said:”I wonder if I kink-shame my husband. Because he quite often asks for things, and I'm like: 'No, babe, it's not happening.' I'm not like: ‘You piece of s***, how dare you ask me to do that!’ I'm just like: ‘Hmm, headache. Little headache, got a bit of a headache - maybe not tonight'."

Recounting how she used the AI tool, Allen said: “If me and David have had an argument and I need to articulate it, I'll be like, ‘Write me a long text message about an argument that started with the dishwasher and ended in an argument about our finances’.”
After receiving a response from ChatGPT, she provided feedback with personal prompts to obtain a more accurate representation of her feelings. Describing how she interacts with ChatGPT, she said: “‘That's great but can you add in a bit about how I think this is all actually to do with his mum?' You just copy and paste every single one until you've got enough.”
The couple's journey began when they connected on Raya, with Allen initially mistaking Harbour for a reality TV star due to his profile picture. "It was the first time I'd been on this dating app. I was scrolling through and landed on David's profile and pressed accept," Lily confessed on The Jonathan Ross Show. She added, "I didn't know who he was. I thought he was just like a sexy policeman from a reality TV show."
Lily explained how David was wearing a policeman's uniform in his profile picture, which turned out to be a still from Stranger Things. The Hard Out There hitmaker admitted to never having seen the hit Netflix show. She continued: "I don't even know what I was looking for. It was just something to do on holiday, swiping, it's a bit of fun."

Lily and David swiftly entered into a relationship, leading to both deactivating their Raya profiles. However, things seem to have fallen apart as insiders claimed David secretly reactivated his account. Sources suggest Lily found evidence he'd been using the dating app to meet other women. One source alleged Lily had doubts about David's online activity, prompting her to use Raya to investigate, targeting women to see if he was active on the app.
"Lily was looking for women that were on Raya and cross-referencing them with women David follows on Instagram to try to figure out who he was seeing," they claimed. The source added to The Mail on Sunday, "Lily only rejoined Raya to try to figure out whether he was seeing someone."
