In 2006, English singer-songwriter and actor Lily Allen hit it big in the world of pop music with the release of her single "Smile." She seemed poised for pop superstardom and for a few years she was most definitely in the limelight—and then not so much. So, what happened? Well, on an episode she recorded for Radio Times Podcast, she said that she had kids and they kind of ruined her career. She shares two daughters, Ethel and Marnie, whit her ex-hubby Sam Cooper. They were married from 2011 to 2018. Lily went on to marry Stranger Things actor David Harbour in 2020.
