Story highlights

A report has surfaced online claiming Millie Bobby Brown accused her co-star, David Harbour, of harassment and bullying. Recently, past comments of the Stranger Things actor have been recirculating amid the controversy. 

Stranger Things actor David Harbour is making headlines again, but not for good reasons. After being accused of cheating by his ex-wife, Lily Allen, during their open marriage, he is again under scrutiny after several reports claiming Millie Bobby Brown filed a harassment and bullying complaint against him surfaced.

As per Radaronline, Brown allegedly lodged a formal complaint consisting of “pages and pages of accusations” before the shooting for season 5 of Stranger Things began. Reportedly, a months-long internal investigation was held, and the 21-year-old actress was accompanied by a personal representative on the sets for safety.

"Millie and I have always had sort of a special relationship because I knew her when she was so young,” Harbour said in the podcast. “I have a real protective feeling for her. I have a real, like, worry… I’ve always felt this deep fatherly affection for her,” he further added.

In another interview with Esquire Spain, a couple of years ago, the actor also talked about mentoring the younger cast, which includes Brown, Finn Wolfhard, Noah Schnapp, and others.
