Lily Allen was seen for the first time since dropping new revelations about her divorce from actor David Harbour.
The singer, 40, who is due to release her first album in seven years on Friday, officially split with the Stranger Things star, 50, in December after discovering his three-year affair.
Yesterday Lily made a series of candid confessions about her life, as she opened up about her divorce, a recent boob job – and described dating in her 40s as ‘humiliating’.
On Wednesday, Lily broke her cover for the first time since making the revelations as she jumped into a black cab after a spot of shopping.
She stepped out in London’s Soho make up free and sporting a casual ensemble, consisting of navy jogging bottoms and a red half-zip sweater.
Lily’s daytime look was completed with a navy and black leather and fabric biker jacket and white trainers. She also appeared to puff on a vape.

The Smile hitmaker recently hinted that her ex-husband David, ‘refused to give answers’ when asked about his three-year affair with a younger colleague.
She has now admitted she was left having to ‘join the dots’ when it came to his affair.
Titled West End Girl, the new record tells the story of a broken marriage and a series of betrayals with the hitmaker explaining: ‘There are definitely some things that happened in my real life that are reflected on this record.’
Speaking in an interview with Perfect Magazine, the star confessed her marriage to David didn’t help her self-worth, and added that dating again in her 40s is ‘humiliating’.
She explained: ‘I also think that what was going on in my life was really confusing, because I didn’t actually know what was going on in my life. I wasn’t sure what was real, and what was in my head.
‘So there’s a certain amount of, like, joining dots. When you are not given answers, your brain is full of lots of questions.
‘And if nobody’s willing to answer those questions, then your brain starts to answer them for you. And so I think some of that maybe happened here.’
Lily split from her ‘unfaithful’ ex-husband David last year when she discovered his three-year affair and profile on celebrity dating app, Raya.

The pop star joined the app herself, pretending to be ‘looking for women’ – and allegedly found that David had already set up a dating profile.
Their split led to her to check into a £8,000-a-week trauma treatment centre to focus on her mental health.
Lily, who has signed a deal with record label BMG, has admitted she’s ‘nervous’ as it’s her most ‘vulnerable’ collection of songs to date.
The mother of two has revealed that she penned the album in just 10 days and said: ‘I’m nervous. The record is vulnerable in a way that my music perhaps hasn’t been before – certainly not over the course of a whole album.’
Last week, Lily extended an olive branch to David after revealing she became suicidal following his three-year affair. She reflected on their relationship, admitting there were still ‘lots of good things about it’ despite the heartbreak.
She told British Vogue: ‘My kids had an amazing experience living in America for five years, and I have a lot of compassion for my ex-husband. I think we all suffer.’

The kind words towards her ex came after Lily revealed she ‘came close to relapsing on drink and drugs and developed a really, really bad problem with food’ as a result of her split from David.
She said she knew she needed to check herself into a facility when she realised she ‘wanted to die’.
The singer told the publication: ‘I’ve had real problems with food over the past few years.’ [In the thick of the break up] ‘it got really, really, really bad.’
The star, who has been sober for six years, added: ‘The feelings of despair that I was experiencing were so strong…
‘The last time that I felt anything like that, drugs and alcohol were my way out, so it was excruciating to sit with those [feelings] and not to use them.’
