LILY Allen has suffered a fresh woe after the sale of her former New York marital home fell through.
It went on the market just days after the Lily’s latest album, which details the alleged infidelity in her marriage, was released last year.
The lavish pad was on sale for £6m ($8m), and it was reported in January that a price of £5m ($7m) had been agreed.
However, the home in Brooklyn is back on the books of estate agents Gambino for £5.3m ($7.3m).
The 19th-century brownstone was reimagined by designer Billy Cotton and architect Ben Bischoff specifically for Lily and her former husband, the Stranger Things actor David Harbour.
The pair, who split in 2024 and are now divorced, recently made headlines following the release of Lily’s album, West End Girl, which alleges that David was unfaithful during their marriage and in one of their homes, possibly 381, Union Street.
The couple purchased the house in 2021 and gave Architectural Digest a tour of the premises two years later.
The video, which went viral and now has 8.2 million views on YouTube, features some of the couple’s more curious design ideas.
These include a pink fridge in their carpeted bathroom, their windowless pink bedroom and a pair of back-to-back green sofas that, according to the couple, were perfect for arguments.
The couple paid £2.4m ($3.3 million) for the five-bedroom, four-bathroom property in 2020 and its new owners will inherit their busy botanical wallpaper , a kitsch tiger-print television room, and other flamboyant features — which Gambino describes as ‘whimsical’.
Outside, in the garden, there is a cold plunge pool and a sauna.
Gambino tells would-be buyers: “Nestled on one of the most sought-after blocks in Carroll Gardens, 381 Union Street is an enchanting, 22-foot-wide brownstone reimagined by AD100 designer Billy Cotton and architect Ben Bischoff of MADE.
“This late-19th-century townhouse unfolds across four levels. From its stately facade to its refined interior palette, the home is a layered narrative of traditional English charm, modern Brooklyn sensibilities, and rich Italian influence.”
Earlier this year, Lily opened up about her state of mind and the “huge change” in her family life situation following her split.
The popstar candidly told how she had now come out from the other side of a “nervous breakdown” which saw her hospitalised.
Lily, 40, who shares two daughters with first husband Sam Cooper, and endured a bitter split with Stranger Things actor David, 50, last year.
Cheating allegations and a marriage lacking intimacy were allegations levelled at the Netflix actor by Lily.
The marriage breakdown sparked Smile songstress Lily’s first album in seven years.
At the heart of the record is a character called Madeline, who Lily confirmed to the Times is a construct of other people, and the secret relationship she has with a man many are interpreting to be Harbour.
Lily previously told how she was suicidal after her marriage split and voluntarily opted to go to rehab.
She has previously been open about her recreational use of drugs and alcohol but she opted to quit the substances six years ago.
It led the star to find her marriage split even more challenging as she wasn’t able to use the substances as a way out.
Lily said: “The feelings of despair that I was experiencing were so strong.
“The last time that I felt anything like that, drugs and alcohol were my way out, so it was excruciating to sit with those [feelings] and not to use them.”
Lily said: “I’ve been into those places before against my will and I feel like that’s progress in itself.
“That’s strength. I knew that the things I was feeling were too extreme to be able to manage, and I was like, ‘I need some time away’.”
