Lily Allen opens up about the reason for getting a boob job after David Harbour split
Lily Allen and David Harbour split up in late 2024 — a breakup, the emotional exhaustion of which led to her boob job. In an interview with The Observer, she said that life became “overwhelming” to her soon after, as she struggled to eat and sleep, with her daughters pointing out how thin she looked. This pushed Allen to seek help, and she checked into a trauma center for intensive therapy. After leaving treatment, she went straight to Manhattan for breast augmentation, which she openly discussed in the interview.
Allen said she made the decision based on changes in her body during the breakup. She explained, “Because I’ve always been really small up top, I was worried about becoming really bottom-heavy.” The English singer and actor added, “I felt like if I got boobs, it would make me feel better about gaining weight. So that was my reasoning.”
The choice was not about glamour for Allen. She talked about going straight from therapy to a high-end operating room, saying with a laugh, “What was quite funny is that I’d spent three weeks in this place trying to find my authentic self and then, within 24 hours, I was on an operating table, also finding my own authentic self.”
The split with David Harbour forced Lily Allen to understand herself in new ways, and the boob job was simply one part of finding her footing again.
