Lily Allen was 'delighted' to win a lucrative contract to advertise Vype e-cigarettes in 2019.

Now, however, the 41-year-old Smile singer says vaping simply makes her sad.

She said: 'I'm actually trying to give up vaping now, annoyingly. It's just not serving me any more.'

Lily, who had a bitter split from her second husband, Stranger Things star David Harbour, 51, added: 'It's been a coping mechanism and a crutch for me, but I'm feeling in a pretty good place and I think I can get rid of it.'

Lily previously revealed how she turned to vaping while writing her heartbreak revenge album West End Girl following the end of her marriage.

The singer and David met on Raya and married in Vegas in 2020, but legally separated in early 2025 after four years of marriage and their divorce proceedings followed shortly after.

West End Girl details ex David's alleged affair whilst they were together and the heartache of having an open marriage. 

She told Interview magazine of writing West End Girl in ten days: 'I was vaping and smoking cigarettes at the time, so it was a Parliament Light in one hand, a vape in the other, and lots of crying, lots of storytelling. I was processing a long relationship, and so things I hadn’t really considered before were coming up and I was like, "Do you think that when this was happening?"'

She added: 'If I didn’t vape, I’d be smoking cigarettes, and that would be disgusting.'

It comes after Lily responded to her ex-husband David's remarks about her 'weird' break-up album West End Girl, which details their marriage breakdown.

The Stranger Things actor said that while he 'respects' Lily's right to talk about their relationship in her music, he did not feel like he 'had the same experience'.

Lily now has had her say on the comments in an interview with The Cut, where she branded his opinion 'generous' and complimented his acting ability.

When asked about her former partner's comments, she said: 'I think that was a generous thing for him to say. He's having a real moment of success as well, right?

'He's been nominated for an Emmy, and it's great. We're all doing our own thing, and we're all doing what we're supposed to do. If there's one thing I know about David Harbour, it's that he's an excellent actor.'

The day after Lily's interview was published online, David received the Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie for playing Floyd Smernitch in HBO's DTF St. Louis.

David offered his verdict on his ex-wife's break-up album during an interview with Variety in June.

The album, which has lyrics on extramarital activity and emotional manipulation, is meant to tell the story of her break-up with David, with a bit of artistic licence, but he doesn't see it that way.

He said: 'It was weird. I do believe that it is the privilege of every artist to use their experience to create art, and so I respect her for doing that. I can't really say that much more, because it's my private life.

'In spite of the fact that a lot of people don't allow me a private life – I value it. And I also value the lives of the people that I interact with privately. I just won't speak about that.

'Stories are complex, and that's why I say I respect her creation of art to channel her experience. It wasn't my experience.'
