Lily Allen and James Norton were spotted enjoying an apparent first date at a London festival on Saturday.
The Smile singer, 40, and Happy Valley actor, 39, were seen watching Charli XCX perform at Lido festival in Victoria Park, smiling and chatting as they drank non-alcoholic beers during the Brat hitmaker’s show.
The duo, who reportedly met on the celebrity dating app Raya, seemed “really relaxed” together, in photos obtained by The Sun.
“Lily and James appeared to be on a date. They were together for the day and were chatting and laughing together as they watched Charli XCX. Lily was leaning into him at one point,” an insider said.
“She and James seemed really relaxed together and she was really making him giggle. They were drinking non-alcoholic beer and queued at the bar like all the other punters.
“People were doing double-takes when they saw them together.”
Allen - who split from her husband, Stranger Things actor David Harbour, in December - shared a video of Charli performing on her Instagram Story, writing: “Queen Brat.”
She also posted a clip of herself riding a Lime bike through what appeared to be the festival grounds, commenting: “Lime virginty taken and forever immortalized.”
Towards the end of the video, a figure that appeared to be Norton was seen in a cream jacket also on a Lime bike.
The Standard has contacted representatives for Allen and Norton for comment.
Norton is believed to have split from model Charlotte Rose Smith, 26, last month. He was linked to her late last year and they were spotted together on several occasions.
He is thought to be back on Raya, an app that Allen is also a member of.
Meanwhile, Allen and Harbour split in December - five years after tying the knot in Las Vegas - amid claims they had been living separate lives for months.
In January, it was reported that Allen was "in agony" after discovering Harbour had an active profile on Raya.
Two months later, Harbour faced claims that he "had a three-year affair" with a costume designer during their marriage. He has not commented on the claims.
Following the breakdown of her marriage, Allen checked into a £10,000-a-week American clinic, reportedly in "emotional turmoil" and "highly medicated" on antidepressants.
She is reportedly planning to return her two daughters - who she shares with ex-husband Sam Cooper - to a new school in London after previously enrolling them in New York.
