Millie Bobby Brown and David Harbour didn’t attend the Stranger Things final season celebration in New York City on Thursday.
The 21-year-old actress and Lily Allen’s former partner, 50, didn’t attend the event. This came after they publicly showed a united front at the show’s Los Angeles premiere, following accusations that he had bullied her.
The rest of the cast came together at the Paley Museum to mark the final season of the popular Netflix series, but Millie Brown and David Harbour didn’t attend.
Harbour didn’t appear as planned due to a reported incident he was supposedly involved in over the weekend.
The star is said to have snatched a man’s hat at a gastropub in Encinitas, California on Saturday.
Millie recently shared that she hurt her arm in a fall, which may be why she hasn’t been around lately.


Lots of the show’s stars attended, such as Gaten Matarazzo, Finn Wolfhard, Charlie Heaton, Jamie Campbell Bower, Joe Keery, Natalia Dyer, Maya Hawke, and Caleb McLaughlin.
They were seen happily posing with the show creators Ross Duffer and Matt Duffer on the red carpet.
It came to light earlier today that Harbour wasn’t listed on the event’s website, even though he was originally scheduled to be there.
A Paley Center representative confirmed to People that David Harbour couldn’t attend due to a prior commitment.
It’s unclear when Harbour stopped participating in the event, which brought together the cast and creators of Stranger Things for a discussion and screening of scenes from the show’s final season.
The Daily Mail reached out to Harbour and the Paley Center for a response, but they haven’t replied yet.
Brown couldn’t make it to the Good Morning America studio on Monday, so she appeared on the show remotely via video call.
She explained to the audience and her co-star Noah Schnapp that she wasn’t there due to an injury.




She apologized to the Good Morning America team for missing the show, explaining that she had fallen and was wearing a sling.
Just last month, Brown publicly shared that she is dating Harbour, following a surprising accusation that he had bullied her.
Everyone was talking about the actress and her co-star at the Los Angeles premiere on November 6th. They playfully acted silly for the photographers, just days after reports surfaced that she had accused him of harassment and bullying. A week later, he didn’t attend the London premiere.
Brown recently shared that she and her co-stars are doing well and focused on their show, which began its final season last month.
Millie told the Hollywood Reporter that she and her friends absolutely love the show, and their friendship means more to them than anything else.
The actress explained that she and David have consistently presented a united front for the past decade, and that her public display of support following the news was simply a continuation of that long-standing practice.
Last month, the Daily Mail revealed that the British actress made extensive accusations against David Harbour before the final season of the sci-fi show started filming.
The complaints didn’t involve any claims of sexual misconduct, and we haven’t yet learned the results of the investigation.


Harbour has been a core member of the Stranger Things cast since it first aired in 2016.
David Harbour plays Jim Hopper, the sheriff, and is a fan favorite thanks to his complicated and interesting story.
Throughout the show, Hopper becomes the adoptive father of Eleven, a young girl with special abilities. She previously escaped from a hidden government lab where she was subjected to experiments during her childhood.
The show’s fifth and last season brings the two characters back together after a significant time spent separated in the previous season.
Okay, so I was so excited to see David Harbour at the event, but apparently he didn’t show! I immediately started digging and found out why – TMZ is reporting some crazy thing happened in California! They said they have video of him… taking someone’s hat at a pub! Seriously, a hat! I can’t believe it. It’s just… so David, you know? A little chaotic, a little unexpected. I’m still reeling!
There’s video of the incident, but TMZ was only given a private viewing and hasn’t released it publicly.
According to reports, the video shows Harbour going into the Encinitas Ale House and quickly coming back out, running outside while holding a white hat.
The actor, who recently separated from his wife, Lily Allen, allegedly yelled while looking back, ‘Hey, help me out here!’
A man was then seen leaving the bar, appearing upset, and reportedly asked, “What did I do to you?”
After that, many people came outside from the bar to see what was happening, and someone – a woman – shouted, ‘Please, don’t fight!’

As she finished speaking, the man walked back to the bar, still wearing his hat. There were no reports of a fight between him and Harbour, and they simply went their separate ways.
According to a source, David has always been open about his bipolar disorder. They suggest his recent struggles might be related to the stress of working constantly and being in the public eye, which could be particularly difficult for someone with his condition.
Harbour received a bipolar disorder diagnosis in his twenties, but he kept it private for years. He was concerned it might harm his career, fearing people would see him as unstable. It wasn’t until he became well-known for his role as Jim Hopper in Stranger Things that he felt comfortable sharing his experiences publicly.
During a 2019 interview on Marc Maron’s WTF podcast, he explained that as an actor, his main concern used to be finding work, but now he’s reached a point where he feels comfortable discussing these issues.
‘Also, I’m in my forties, I may as well be myself, whether I get work or not.’
