Lily Allen is stepping into the new year with confidence, sunshine, and zero regrets. The 40-year-old singer looked radiant as she flaunted her toned figure in a series of Instagram photos from her Caribbean getaway—her first public vacation since finalizing her divorce from Stranger Things actor David Harbour. For Allen, the message couldn’t have been clearer: heartbreak is out, self-love is in.
“Lovely holiday to bring in the new year with my beautiful babies. Right now, back to business. LFG ’26,” she captioned the post, which featured a carousel of sun-soaked images taken on January 5. The singer posed effortlessly in a purple bandeau top and pink bikini bottoms, lounging on a striped beach blanket with the ocean as her backdrop. In another snap, she sported a navy floral strapless top and ruffled blue shorts, exuding effortless tropical glamour.
Fans immediately flooded her comments with encouragement and praise. “You’re glowing, mother,” one follower gushed, while another wrote, “You look incredible, Lily. He’s so last year!” The tone was unanimous—everyone could see Allen’s post-divorce glow-up in full effect.
But behind that confidence was a long journey of healing. Allen and Harbour’s split was confirmed in February 2025 after four years of marriage, following months of reported tension and emotional distance. “Her marriage has been crumbling,” a source revealed at the time. “And they have split.”
The separation took its toll. Weeks later, Allen made the brave decision to check herself into a treatment center, attending both group and individual therapy sessions. She later opened up about the experience on her Miss Me podcast, explaining, “I absolutely adore my children, and I’m in a situation now where I really have to be my strongest self for them. It was getting harder and harder to show up for them in the way they need me to.”
Her daughters—Ethel, 13, and Marnie, 12, from her previous marriage to Sam Cooper—remain her biggest motivation. Friends say Allen’s focus on recovery and motherhood helped her rebuild her emotional strength throughout 2025.
By summer, her outlook had transformed. “Lily is a fighter,” one insider told People. “She spent time in Europe, started dating again, and really began to feel like herself.” Her latest photos seem to capture exactly that: a woman who’s come through the pain, embraced her healing, and is ready to take on the world again—bikini, babies, and all.
