Lily Allen was whisked off on a romantic celebratory dinner date by husband David Harbour after another successful night starring on the West End.
The Smile singer delivered a Saturday night performance of her play, 2:22 A Ghost Story, at the Noel Coward theatre in London and had her biggest cheerleader in the audience for the first time.
Stranger Things actor David was on-hand to support his wife during her latest performance and quite literally took her hand as he escorted her from the theatre after the show.
However, the married couple weren’t quite ready to end the night and head home as they continued their evening at the nearby J Sheekey restaurant for a wind-down.
Lily, 36, looked chic and summery in a silky white polka dot dress and black sandals, while David, 46, was a little more wrapped up in a jacket, shirt, trousers, wooly hat and face mask.
It appears to be the first time the American actor has attended one of Lily’s performances in the play, but he did publicly support her in a sweet Instagram post on launch night.
He wrote: ‘Very proud of my slightly nervous, immensely brave, annoyingly talented wife @lilyallen who has her first preview of her play @222aghoststory tonight. Like, that she’s acting in!

‘If you’re in London check it out at the Noel Coward til October something. Also, very excited to announce I’ve been working on a pop album. Get ready, cause it’s gonna suck!’
It’s a contrast to David’s message earlier this week, when he jokingly sent her ‘bad luck flowers’.
Alongside a photo of the bouquet, he wrote on social media: ‘My ambitious wife, these are bad luck flowers ’cause if you get reviewed well in this play, you get all kinds of awards and I will be miserable.’
He signed off the note: ‘Your loving husband.’

Lily has received rave reviews for her performance in 2:22 A Ghost Story, in which she plays Jenny, a woman who believes her new home is haunted, but her husband Sam (Hadley Fraser) remains unsure.
The stage show, created by Danny Robins, sees Lily star opposite former EastEnders actor Jake Wood and Silent House’s Julia Chan.
Following the triumphant opening night, Lily wrote in Twitter posts: ‘Ok i’m going to bed now. so so tired, but that was so thrilling.
