Millie accused David Harbour of harassment before 'Stranger Things-5': Report
What's the story
Millie Bobby Brown, who rose to global fame with Netflix's Stranger Things, has reportedly accused her co-star and on-screen father, David Harbour, of "bullying and harassment." The allegations were made before the filming of the show's fifth and final season. A source told Mail on Sunday that Brown's complaint included "pages and pages of accusations," leading to an internal investigation that lasted several months.
Investigation details
'Investigation went on for months'
The allegations against Harbour (50) did not involve any sexual misconduct. "Millie Bobby Brown (21) filed a harassment and bullying claim before they started shooting the last season." "The investigation went on for months," the insider stated. Despite these serious allegations, Netflix has chosen to remain silent on the matter, with no official comment regarding any ongoing investigation. The source said, "Netflix will never comment on an internal investigation, but the fact they've not denied it speaks volumes."
Personal turmoil
Lily Allen stood by Harbour during this period
Alongside the bullying and harassment allegations, Harbour is also currently facing accusations of infidelity from his estranged wife, singer-songwriter Lily Allen. Despite these challenges, sources say that Allen stood by her husband when he faced these allegations by Brown. "Lily supported him throughout it all. It was a brutal time," a source revealed to Mail on Sunday. Brown had a personal representative with her while filming the final season of Stranger Things.
Show's finale
Meanwhile, Netflix is moving ahead with 'Stranger Things' S05
The final season is set to premiere later this month. In India, the first four episodes will premiere on November 27, followed by the next three on December 26, and the finale on January 1. The episodes will begin streaming at 6:30am. Netflix has planned a theatrical release for its final episode (Chapter Eight: The Rightside Up) in the US and Canada. A Netflix source told Mail on Sunday, "Nothing will overshadow this...not even the leading man's private life."
Album release
Meanwhile, Harbour is facing infidelity accusations
Allen is currently receiving rave reviews for her new album, West End Girl. The album explores the pain and betrayal she experienced during her four-year marriage to Harbour, which ended last December. One of the songs from the album, Madeline, was reportedly about a woman Harbour had an affair with. Per Allen, the album is "a mixture of fact and fiction which I hope serves as a reminder of how stoic yet also how frail we humans can be".
