Grammy-nominated singer's candid abortion revelation
In a candid interview on her podcast, Miss Me?, Allen described herself as a 'crazy bitch' when it came to matters of safe sex and contraception.
'I'd get pregnant all the time, all the time,' she told co-host Miquita Oliver.
'Abortions, I've had a few, but then again, I can't remember exactly how many … I think maybe like, I want to say four or five,' Allen said.
The Smile singer, who is a mother of two young girls, Ethel and Marnie, to her ex-husband Sam Cooper, spoke about her sex life before the podcast pair proceeded to compare abortion stories.
A 'complete disaster area' is how Allen described her contraception efforts, as Oliver declared that she has also had 'about five (abortions), too'.
'Lily, I'm so happy I can say that and you can say it and no one came to shoot us down, no judgment,' Oliver added.
'We've had about the same amount of abortions.'
Describing one of the situations Allen, 40, said she thought one of the men offering to pay for an abortion was 'romantic'.
'I remember once getting pregnant and the man paying for my abortion, and me thinking it was so romantic,' she said.
'I don't think it's generous or romantic,' she went on to say after she never heard from the man again.
In 2020 Allen married Stranger Things actor David Harbour, 50, but the pair reportedly split earlier this year according to Page Six.
Soon after, the actor was spotted with 27-year-old model Ellie Fallon in the US, when the pair were together on a trip to India for New Year's Eve.
Although remaining candid about her current relationship status Ms Allen told her listeners that she still struggles to settle down, adding 'fair (to be honest), I was a f..ken crazy bitch, still am.'

Lily Allen can't remember how many abortions she's had
Lily Allen "can't remember" how many abortions she's had. The 40-year-old singer revealed during a conversation about birth control that she used to get pregnant "all the time". Speaking about contraception on the Miss Me? podcast, Lily shared: "I just remember I have an IUD (contraceptive coil) now. "I think I'm on my third maybe fourth and I just remember before that it was a complete disaster area. Yeah, I'd get pregnant all the time." Allen subsequently discussed her experience of abortions, admitting she can't remember how many she's actually had. Singing to the tune of Frank Sinatra's My Way, she said: "Abortions I've had a few ... but then again ... I can't remember exactly how many." Allen added: "I can't remember. I think maybe like, I want to say four or five." Miquita Oliver, Alen's friend and podcast co-host, then opened up about her own experiences. The 41-year-old TV presenter said: "I've had about five too! Lily, I've never I'm so happy I can say that and you can say it and no one came to shoot us down, no judgement. We've had about the same amount of abortions." Allen revealed that one of her ex-partners actually paid for her to get an abortion and, at the time, she considered it to be a "romantic" gesture. She shared: "I remember once getting pregnant and the man paying for my abortion, and me thinking it was so romantic!" Oliver then said: "I actually think that is romantic!" However, Allen quickly rubbished that suggestion, observing that kids "are a lot more expensive". The LDN hitmaker - who has daughters Ethel, 13, and Marnie, 11, with ex-husband Sam Cooper - said: "No, I don't think it's generous or romantic. Think about that investment, like that's how much is it ... 500 quid ($A1000)? Kids are a lot more expensive." Allen hates that women have to justify their decision to get an abortion. She explained: "I've seen memes going around sometimes, on Instagram from pro-abortion accounts or whatever, whenever this conversation comes up, and suddenly you start seeing people posting things about extraordinary reasons for having an abortion. "Like: 'My aunt had a kid that had this disability,' or whatever, 'If she went full term it was going to kill her, so we have to.' It's like, shut up! "Just: 'I don't want a f****** baby right now.' Literally: 'Don't want a baby' is enough reason." Lily Allen "can't remember" how many abortions she's had.
