Caption: Lily Allen 'in a stronger place' following treatment centre stay. The British singer announced in January that she was taking a break from her Miss Me? podcast because she was "not in a good place" and had been "spiralling" for months. The news came days after it was reported that she was separating from her husband of four years, actor David Harbour, a rumour which has yet to be officially confirmed. The 39-year-old returned to the podcast on Thursday and opened up to her close friend and co-host Miquita Oliver about her time in the facility. ”I just feel very grateful to have been given the time and the space that I needed…” Lily said on Thursday's episode, before confirming that she had checked into a "treatment centre for a few weeks” "I did lots of group therapy and some like individual therapy. I needed some time and space away from everything. And I did a lot of shadow work, y'know, lots of work about my inner child stuff. Not easy by any stretch and it's a journey y'know, it's a lifelong journey of healing. It's not a quick fix.” Elsewhere in the episode, the Not Fair singer explained that she wants to be her "strongest self" for her two daughters, Ethel, 13, and Marnie, 11, who she shares with her first husband, Sam Cooper. ”I absolutely adore my children and I'm in a situation now where I really have to be my strongest self for them. felt like it was getting harder and harder for me to be able to show up for them in the way that they need me to.” The Smile hitmaker added it was a "really big decision" to leave her daughters to seek help. ”It was a big decision to have to leave them for a few weeks to go and focus on myself, but ultimately it was for them so that I can get us through this bit. I needed some help to be able to do that. I don't want them to ever feel like they have to prop me up.” Lily concluded by saying that although she still has work to do, she is "definitely in a stronger place”.
