Mystery surrounds David Harbour’s absence at Stranger Things premiere in London following Millie Bobby Brown bombshell bullying claims and ex-wife Lily Allen’s ‘revenge’ album

David Harbor was notably absent from the fifth premiere of the Stranger Things series, held in London on Thursday night, while the rest of the cast was out in force.
This comes after the 50-year-old actor and his co-star Millie Bobby Brown, 21, became the talk of the town by performing an ‘OTT comedy double act for the cameras’ after she made an explosive bullying allegation against him at the Los Angeles premiere on November 6.
While many thought David was keeping a low profile after his new album, which deals with Lily Allen’s infidelity, it’s possible he had to miss the premiere because he’s filming his upcoming true crime thriller Evil Genius in New Jersey on Tuesday.
David was first spotted looking unrecognizable on set Tuesday with his new gray hair and beard look as cameras rolled on the Courteney Cox-directed feature film.
Meanwhile, two days later, Stranger Things stars Millie, Sadie Sink, Noah Schnapp, Gaten Matarazzo and Finn Wolfhard posed together on the red carpet, and fans began to question the 50-year-old actor’s whereabouts.
The Daily Mail has contacted representatives for David and Netflix for comment.

Co-stars Millie Bobby Brown, Sadie Sink, Noah Schnapp, Gaten Matarazzo and Finn Wolfhard posed together on the red carpet, leaving fans wondering where the 50-year-old actor was.
A week ago, the Emmy-nominated actor joined Millie at the Los Angeles premiere, which was water under the bridge as they posed together following reports that she filmed an allegation of harassment and bullying.
Most importantly, the complaints did not contain any allegations of sexual impropriety, and so far the outcome of the investigation is unknown.
In the photos in Los Angeles, Millie and David put on an over-the-top show of friendship, joking around while posing for photos.
Body language expert Judi James explained to the Daily Mail that it’s rare for red carpet looks to be completely original, and that Millie and David’s actions appeared to be ‘extreme-looking rituals’.
He explained: ‘The photos here appear to show the pair getting together in a double comedy act for the cameras.
‘ She raises one hand to her face as she speaks in an elegant and dramatic gesture, implying that she is reflecting on what he is saying.
‘But then they perform a comedic, mirrored pose upgrade, both looking up and pointing to suggest a shared humor for this visual “joke” which they both understand and enjoy.’

And on Tuesday, Lily was spotted enjoying a casual dinner date with author Jonah Freud in West London after addressing David’s infidelity in her new album West End Girl.
The pair, who looked relaxed chatting and laughing over dinner, are said to have spent more than two hours together before leaving the venue separately.

The revelation comes amid ongoing drama following David’s split from estranged wife Lily Allen earlier this year, as he addresses his infidelity on his new album West End Girl.
The duo were also photographed together at the Oasis party held at Chiltern Fire Station in September.
The outing was the singer’s first date since her fling with actor James Norton earlier this year.
In June, the singer and actor were photographed getting cozy while watching Charli XCX’s show in London after they reportedly matched on the popular dating app Raya.
A source told The Sun: ‘James and Lily got a good look at each other and were kissing backstage.
We were all quite surprised to see them there together, let alone kissing.
‘I don’t think they’ve even known each other that long, but it was a fun hang out backstage and they just fell into the atmosphere.’
The Daily Mail has contacted Lily and James’ representatives for comment at the time.
Her latest date comes after the singer poked fun at David’s ‘mistress’ by dressing as children’s book character Madeline.
Celebrating Halloween at the Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles, the singer channeled the title character from Ludwig Bemelmans’ classic series following the release of her explosive song of the same name.
Lily, whose new album is about her ex-husband’s relationship and their subsequent breakup, seems to have named the girl to whom she constantly sings the following song in the semi-autobiographical album: ‘Who is this Madeline?’
In the series, David plays Jim Hopper, who adopts Millie’s supernaturally gifted character, Eleven, after she escapes from a secret government facility.
The Madeline book series, about the orphaned schoolgirl, was made into a movie in 1998, starring actress Hatty Jones.
Channeling the character at Vas J Morgan and Michael Braun’s star-studded Halloween bash, the musician wore a blue-collared pea coat with a red scarf.
She completed her school uniform with a straw hat and Mary Jane shoes and added a bright orange wig.
The singer addresses David’s infidelity, saying: ‘I can’t trust anything that comes out of his mouth.’
In the song Tennis, Lily is seen name-checking the woman she is questioning from her partner after seeing a text message from her on his phone.
The record comes after a tumultuous period in Lily’s life following the end of her marriage in December after she accused David of having several affairs, including a three-year affair with young costume designer Natalie Tippett.
Lily’s representatives declined to comment when contacted by the Daily Mail about Madeline’s identity.
