David Harbour used to speak about Millie Bobby Brown like she was family. Back in 2021, during a podcast appearance, he shared how much he cared about his Stranger Things co-star. Harbour described their friendship as truly special and mentioned that he felt like a protective dad figure to her.
According to Page Six, Harbour recalled when Brown was just 12 years old and they first started working together on the show in 2016. “I’ve just always felt this kind of deep fatherly affection for her,” he told the podcast host. He got to know her before she became a huge star and was always concerned about how fame might affect her.
However, things appear to have taken a difficult turn between them. A source revealed that Brown filed a complaint against Harbour before filming the final season of Stranger Things. “Millie Bobby Brown filed a harassment and bullying claim before they started shooting the last season,” the source told the press. “There were pages and pages of accusations. The investigation went on for months.”
Netflix launched an investigation into Brown’s allegations. Reports indicate that the complaint was detailed and extensive. Brown reportedly had someone accompanying her throughout the filming of the last season, highlighting the severity of the situation. Although the investigation spanned several months, sources clarify that the claims involved bullying and mistreatment—not any sexual misconduct.
When approached by reporters, Brown, Harbour, and Netflix all declined to comment on the matter. A Netflix insider hinted that the company’s silence might be telling. “The fact they’ve not denied it speaks volumes,” the person said.
Stranger Things remains a major hit for Netflix, with millions of fans worldwide eagerly awaiting the show’s conclusion. Meanwhile, someone close to Harbour mentioned that his wife at the time, singer Lily Allen, stood by him during this challenging period. “Lily supported him throughout it all. It was a brutal time,” the source added.
Harbour and Allen ended their marriage in February after four years together. Following their split, Allen released an album titled *West End Girl*, with some songs suggesting Harbour may have been unfaithful during their relationship.
