    Lily Allen has reportedly described herself as a "recovering addict" and "raging codependent" on the celebrity dating app Raya

    The singer, 40, is said to have returned to the platform following her split from actor David Harbour, 50, which ended last year after she allegedly discovered he was hunting for women online.


    A source told the Daily Mail: "Lily is advertising herself as a) recovering addict and raging codependent (on Raya."

    An insider also told the outlet about Lily allegedly discovering David searching for women on the celebrity dating app while they were married: "Lily (signed up and) 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."

    Her new Raya profile reportedly includes a photograph of her in black see-through lingerie, alongside the tagline introducing herself with the candid confession.

    Lily and David married in 2020 but separated in 2023, with their divorce finalised in 2024.

    Last month, Lily confirmed she had moved out of the New York townhouse she shared with David and was now redecorating a new home in west London, an ex-council flat where she will live with her two daughters.

    The Smile singer has also been spotted dating since her separation.

    In the summer she was seen at a London music festival with actor James Norton.

    But their meeting did not develop further, as James was later seen at Glastonbury with stylist Flora Huddart.

    Lily has spoken openly in the past about her struggles with addiction and co-dependency.

    The singer - whose dad is actor Keith Allen and brother is Game of Thrones actor Alfie - rose to fame with her 2006 debut album Alright, Still, which featured hits such as Smile and LDN.

    Known for her sharp lyrics and eclectic style, she followed with the chart-topping It's Not Me, It's You in 2009.

    After a brief hiatus, she returned with Sheezus (2014) and No Shame (2018), the latter nominated for the Mercury Prize.

    Beyond music, Lily has acted on stage, most notably in the West End play 2:22 A Ghost Story.

    She is also recognised for her outspoken views and memoir My Thoughts Exactly.
