Lily Allen opens up about her new life

Lily Allen is interviewed by Elle about life and love.

When our Elle magazine subscription drops on the doormat of the iSUBSCRiBE.co.uk office every month it’s usually met with lots of “oohs “ and “aahs” by the female staff, so when the August issue of Elle arrived a few days ago, we all commented on how fantastic Lily Allen looked on the cover.

Interviewed shortly before her wedding to Sam Cooper, the retired singer opened up about her new life away from showbiz, being happy in her own skin and getting over the trauma of her past year.

Last year Allen lost her baby 3 months before term after suffering from a viral infection and the tragedy has, unsurprisingly, changed her whole world.

“I’ve gone from being that person who’s happy-go-lucky to being someone who’s been severely affected by something huge. It’s made me more empathetic, a bit older. At the time I remember thinking, I can’t believe I’ve spent so much of my life worrying about things that are really insignificant.”

However life is definitely on the up for Lily as on the weekend of her wedding, it was announced that she was pregnant again and pictures from her big day show her looking happy with a slight bump protruding from beneath her wedding dress.

Described by Elle as a “national treasure”, Allen has definitely won us over as we’ve watched her grow from the outspoken, heavy-drinking singer to becoming a young entrepreneur who owns a record label and runs fashion boutique Lucy in Disguise with her sister Sarah – and has even brought out her own vintage-inspired fashion line.

But the most important thing in Lily’s life is undoubtedly being with her loved ones, particularly new husband Sam.
