Lily Allen and David Harbour have officially listed their Brooklyn townhouse for $8 million, just days after the release of her explosive new album West End Girl, which lays bare the breakdown of their four-year marriage.
The couple, who tied the knot in 2020, bought the late 19th-century brownstone for $3.3 million that same year and spent thousands renovating it. The five-bedroom, four-bath home, located on one of Carroll Gardens' most coveted blocks, was redesigned by AD100 designer Billy Cotton and architect Ben Bischoff of MADE. It features a tiger-print media room, a chef's kitchen inspired by The Godfather, floral Parisian-inspired bedrooms, and a private garden with a sauna and cold plunge.
Allen's latest record has reignited public interest in their relationship. The singer uses her lyrics to reveal painful details of alleged infidelity, including a "three-year affair" she says shattered their marriage. On Relapse, she sings, "The ground is gone beneath me / You pulled the safety net / I moved across an ocean from my family, from my friends / The foundation is shattered / You've made such a f***ing mess."
In another track, Pussy Palace, Allen recounts discovering signs of Harbour's cheating after dropping off his things at what she thought was his work apartment. "I didn't know it was your pussy palace," she sings, describing the shock of finding "sex toys, lube and condoms" inside. Fans have compared the track to Beyoncé's Sorry, calling it a modern-day "cheating anthem."
Speaking to The Times, Allen said, "There are usually agreed-upon boundaries in relationships. But whether those boundaries are adhered to or not is becoming a grey area all of a sudden. Dating apps make people disposable." She previously revealed she uncovered Harbour's profile on the celebrity dating app Raya, which led her to "join the dots."
Following their split last December, Allen relocated to London but has said she hopes to return to New York, citing that "my recovery is in New York and my health is a huge priority." The sale of the Brooklyn townhouse marks another major step in closing that chapter.
