Lily and David — who tied the knot back in 2020 in a Las Vegas ceremony officiated by an Elvis Presley impersonator — recently found themselves at the center of split rumors, with unverified sources alleging that their marriage came to an end after Lily found her husband on the celebrity dating app Raya.

And while neither of the pair has commented directly on the breakup reports, Lily has been incredibly candid about facing personal struggles recently, saying on the Jan. 9 episode of her podcast, Miss Me?, that she’s “just really not in a good place.”

And now, less than a month later, People report that Lily and David have separated after four years of marriage.

Over the years, Lily has talked incredibly openly about her past misuse of drugs. And the new reports about her apparent split from David come after she shut down “vicious rumors” claiming that she’d recently “relapsed.”

As I’m sure you know, both Lily and David have never shied away from discussing the intricacies of their marriage — from their sex life and her OnlyFans side hustle to the fact that they control each other’s phone apps and can go days without speaking.
