Lily Allen and David Harbour seen for the first time amid split speculation enjoying basketball game in NYC

Lily Allen and David Harbour have been pictured together for the first time amid speculation their marriage is in crisis after the singer, 38, unfollowed the Stranger Things, 48, actor on social media.

The couple brushed off the speculation as they watched the Cleveland Cavaliers triumph against the New York Knicks, 95-89, at Madison Square Garden in New York City on Wednesday night.

The Smile hitmaker appeared in good spirits while sitting courtside as she sported a beige jumper, black trousers and trainers, while Harbour donned black trousers and a grey T-shirt.

Last week, Allen fuelled fears the pair had split after she unfollowed her husband on Instagram. Harbour still follows his other half on the platform, however.

Recently, insiders claimed the couple had been “living separate lives” while Allen, has daughters Marnie, 10, and Ethel, 11, from a previous relationship, appeared on the West End.

A source told The Sun: “Lily and David have barely been together for the past three months and have been living separate lives.

“When she was in London for the Pillowman, David was spotted at one performance in July before Lily was left by herself.

“In her downtime, Lily would be with mates in London or her kids. When she went back to the US with them, there was no sign of David.”

Then earlier this week, Harbour was pictured at the Thom Browne 20th anniversary dinner without his wife which further fuelled the reports.

However, their latest united appearance at the basketball would suggest otherwise. Recently, the pair celebrated their third wedding anniversary.

Acknowledging the milestone, Allen took to Instagram and shared a photo from their special day, writing alongside it: “Three years with this guy, second best decision I ever made. First was that dress.”

The couple were first linked in January 2019 when they attended the BAFTA Tea Party together. In November of the same year, the British singer was photographed wearing an engagement ring.
