An Ongoing Storm for Harbour
The already stormy divorce proceedings of David Harbour and Lily Allen have taken another dramatic turn. His former co-star from Netflix’s hit series Stranger Things, Millie Bobby Brown, has reportedly filed a harassment and bullying complaint against him.
The New Allegations
According to sources familiar with the matter, the complaint was submitted before filming began on the show’s fifth and final season. The details, obtained by DailyMail, allegedly spanned numerous pages, detailing serious workplace misconduct.
Brown’s Experience on Set
While the specific nature of the accusations remains undisclosed, Brown’s filing reportedly focused solely on workplace harassment and bullying, without including claims of sexual impropriety. Brown has portrayed the young psychic Eleven since 2016, opposite Harbour’s portrayal of the character’s protective father figure, Chief Jim Hopper. Brown was just 12 years old when filming began, while Harbour was 41.
Harbour’s Protective Stance
Harbour has previously expressed deep concern for Brown’s well-being, citing their long-standing relationship. “Millie and I have always had sort of a special relationship because I knew her when she was so young,” Harbour shared in 2021. He has stated he feels protective of her, worried about the pressures of fame, and enjoys a somewhat contentious, yet close, father-daughter dynamic with the young actress.
A Pattern of Concerns?
This latest complaint isn’t the first alleged issue on the Stranger Things set. In 2018, an unnamed woman came forward alleging verbal abuse of women by powerful men on the set. While the creators, the Duffer brothers, apologized for any high-strung interactions and denied any pattern of abuse, Netflix also investigated and reportedly found no wrongdoing.
Conclusion
The reported harassment claim from Millie Bobby Brown adds another layer to the challenging circumstances surrounding David Harbour, potentially complicating his ongoing personal situation
