Allen formally filed for divorce from Harbour in September 2025, ending their marriage and drawing attention to the reasons for their breakup. Discussions about the divorce have continued, and Allen has been candid about using her music as a vehicle for her emotional journey. Themes of loss, betrayal, and introspection are among the references in her 2025 album 'West End Girl' that many feel touch on the breakdown of her marriage.
Allen herself hinted that part of the reason for the breakup dated back even further, suggesting that the relationship may have effectively ended before Christmas 2024. Meanwhile, Harbour has been seen on dating apps and photographed with other women, though he has kept much of his personal life private.

They had previously been spotted together on a dinner date in West London in November, which sparked early speculation that a love relationship might be developing.
