It appears 2025 may turn into a controversial year for David Harbour. A surprising report has surfaced claiming that the actor is facing serious bullying and harassment accusations from his Stranger Things co-star, Millie Bobby Brown. The alleged complaint was filed just before filming began for the show’s final season—placing Netflix in the middle of a media storm right before the grand farewell of one of its biggest global hits. These claims also follow headlines about his personal life after Lily Allen, Harbour’s wife, sparked rumors of infidelity through lyrics on her latest album West End Girl.
Complaint Filed Before Stranger Things Season 5 Begins
According to RadarOnline, Millie Bobby Brown reportedly submitted a formal complaint against David Harbour, accusing him of harassment and on-set bullying. Harbour, who plays Jim Hopper—Eleven’s adoptive father—has always shared a heartfelt dynamic with her character, making these real-life accusations shocking for fans.
Sources claim the 20-year-old actress filed the complaint before production began for the fifth and final season. Netflix allegedly opened an internal investigation that lasted for months. While the results remain undisclosed, insiders confirmed that no sexual misconduct was involved. Reports also suggest Millie had a personal representative with her during filming as a precaution.
Netflix has chosen not to comment publicly, with insiders stating the company wants the spotlight to remain on the show’s much-anticipated finale. “Nothing is overshadowing this ending—not even the lead actor’s personal controversies,” one source claimed.
Lily Allen Adds Fuel to the Fire
The timing of these allegations aligns with growing speculation around David Harbour’s marriage. In her October 2025 album, West End Girl, Lily Allen hints at betrayal, heartbreak, and emotional distance within her relationship. While she insists not every lyric is literal, many listeners believe the songs reference real issues in her marriage, including possible infidelity.
Fans Demand Answers from Netflix
As the reports spread online, fans have taken to social media demanding transparency and accountability from Netflix. Questions are being raised about on-set behavior, internal policies, and why such tensions were allowed to escalate during production.
