Lily Allen isn’t getting involved in her daughters’ relationship with her ex David Harbour.
Following the former couple’s breakup in February after four years of marriage, the “Smile” singer—who is mom to Ethel, 14, and Marnie, 12, with ex-husband Sam Cooper—shared that the Stranger Things star still keeps in touch with his stepkids.
But as Lily told The Observer in an interview published Dec. 20, “I stay out of it.”
Indeed, the 40-year-old—who alluded to infidelity in their relationship on her recent album West End Girl—pointed out that her kids are able to stay connected with David, 50, without her involvement.
“They’ve both got phones,” she continued. “They all text each other.”
Shortly after David exchanged vows with Lily in September 2020, he described the positive impact that Ethel and Marnie had made on his life after being “thrust into” a paternal role.
“I’m in a relationship with three women who all have very different opinions of me at various times,” he told People that December. “Making that kind of a commitment, which I haven’t for most of my life, was a huge thing for me. And it just makes you feel a little bit more like a man, to be honest. I just feel a little bit more like an adult.”
