On January 28, singer Lily Allen was spotted enjoying an evening out in Paris with her new boyfriend, author Jonah Freud, marking a step forward after the David Harbour breakup drama. The couple attended an afterparty for Paris Fashion Week in the city’s West End, dressed in coordinated outfits.
Relationship Details and Public Appearances
Lily wore a black coat layered over a green scarf, a green skirt, and a black polka-dotted orange top, while Jonah complemented her look in a suit with a green trench coat. Actor Austin Butler accompanied them during the outing. Though Lily has yet to publicly acknowledge her new romance, their affectionate behavior was clear as Jonah held Lily close, and they leaned their heads together. The couple previously appeared at a holiday party in London last month, where Lily was photographed kissing Jonah while wearing a red and white dress.
Background on Lily Allen’s Past Marriages and Recent Breakup
Lily Allen has previously been married twice. Her first marriage was to Sam Cooper in 2011, ending in 2018, and they share two daughters, Ethel, 13, and Marnie, 12. In 2020, she married Stranger Things star David Harbour, but their relationship ended last year amid rumors of strain as early as December 2024.
Controversy Surrounding Breakup with David Harbour
The David Harbour breakup drama escalated with the release of Lily’s new album in October 2025, which featured a song about a partner engaging in an open marriage. This was believed to reference David Harbour, who was reported to be active on the celebrity dating app Raya in January 2025 and was later seen with young model Ellie Fallon the following month. In December 2025, costume designer Natalie Tippett, accused of being Harbour’s mistress, denied the allegations publicly.
I did not have a three-year affair with anyone,
she wrote.
I’m unsure why this person wants so badly to pit people against me or create this narrative that we both know is false based on the actual messages that I have saved between us.
