Inside David Harbour’s New York City sex pad that inspired Lily Allen’s explicit take down of her ex husband

Pictures of David Harbour’s New York City apartment are circulating online again, following the release of a revealing song by Lily Allen that details events which took place there.

As a huge Lily fan, I was completely floored by her new album, West End Girl. It’s a raw and honest reckoning with her divorce, and she doesn’t hold back at all when detailing her ex-husband David’s infidelity. Honestly, the 14 tracks are incredibly revealing – she even describes finding… well, let’s just say evidence of his affair, including some pretty shocking things at what she calls his ‘Pussy Palace’. It’s intense, but so powerful.

The standout track on Lily’s album details a painful breakup, recounting how she kicked her partner out of their New York home and made him move to his own apartment in the West Village – a situation she describes with a surprising label.

She arrived at the apartment, which she thought was a martial arts studio, but I quickly sensed something was off. I started to wonder if I was dealing with someone with a sex addiction.

In the second verse, she discovers a box filled with letters from women who were hurt by the same man, along with some intimate items. She then questions how she became involved in his secret, double life.

Okay, so Lily says she changed a few things in the song, but we, the real fans, we’ve cracked the code! We’ve actually found the place everyone’s been calling David’s ‘pussy palace’! I can’t even believe it, it’s real! I’m seriously freaking out right now. It’s like all the clues were there, and we finally put it together. This is HUGE!

In 2019, the actor from Stranger Things showed Architectural Digest around his New York City loft, which he’d recently finished renovating after a ten-month project.

David showed a magazine reporter around his home, explaining how he was immediately charmed by the 1,400-square-foot space, even though it needed a lot of work.

The floors weren’t level, and the drywall was in rough shape. The whole place felt stuck in the 1970s and hadn’t been updated in decades.

The video features the actor displaying his impressive floor-to-ceiling bookshelves, which open into a spacious living area. A large, tan couch dominates the bright, white room.

He describes the bedroom as very basic – simply a place for sleeping, reading, or perhaps doing some pilates.

During a recent 10-month renovation that restored the house to its original condition, a surprising architectural detail was discovered. This is a noteworthy aspect of the featured home.

David discovered old metal bolts – once used to build wagon wheels – in his bedroom, and he thought it was amazing to see them displayed on the walls.

He also expressed his fondness for the apartment, describing a spot on the kitchen counter where he likes to sit, saying it makes him feel powerful, like a lion overlooking its territory. He also noted that the apartment has a romantic atmosphere.

Although it hasn’t been officially proven, the apartment is believed to be the one Lily references in her song. What is known is that David continued to own the apartment throughout his marriage to the singer.

During their marriage, Lily and David mainly lived together with Lily’s two daughters in an $8 million Brooklyn townhouse. However, in February 2024, Lily posted a photo on Instagram showing her in David’s apartment.

After finalizing their divorce in December, the ex-couple are now selling their New York townhouse for a staggering $8 million.

The former couple is expected to earn a significant profit from the sale of their Brooklyn property, which they bought for $3.3 million (£2.5 million) in 2020.

The US Sun reports that Lily and David just listed their home for sale on Sunday, only two days after Lily released her new, highly anticipated album.

Records show Lily and David bought the property together, using separate trusts, and have invested significantly in renovations.

As a lifestyle expert, I’d describe it as a beautiful blend of styles. Think classic English coziness, mixed with the cool, creative vibe of Brooklyn, and then infused with the warmth and richness of Italian design. It’s a really interesting and inviting combination!

Lily and David recently revealed their newly renovated New York home, which features unique spaces like a media room with tiger print, a luxurious kitchen designed with inspiration from the movie The Godfather, floral-themed rooms reminiscent of Paris, and a spacious walk-in closet.

After discovering her husband, David, had been having an affair with a younger woman for three years, Lily moved to London. They had separated last year.

The Mail on Sunday was the first to identify ‘Madeline’ and has interviewed her at her home in the United States.
