David Harbour on marrying Lily Allen

Stranger Things star David Harbour appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live for a chat this week.

He spoke about the day he married Lily Allen, and how her children were part of the reason he popped the question.

David and Lily tied the knot in Vegas last September.

Jimmy mentioned how shocked he was to see Clark County Nevada had tweeted their marriage certificate.

When asked if he gave them permission to do that, David answered, "No."

"Clearly what happens in Vegas does not stay in Vegas. Yeah, it's outrageous right?"

"We went and registered the night before and then it broke. I mean, we were just trying to get in and out real quick."

David said it was, "awkward," when family members who didn't know about the wedding found out after seeing the tweet.

How Lily's children feel about calling him, 'dad'

The actor also spoke to Jimmy about the moment he realised he needed to marry Lily.

He explained they were out with her 8-year-old and 9-year-old girls, riding bikes in the country.

"The little one was riding along and she was going, 'David! Dad! David!'... she got very confused."

David said Lily's 9-year-old got very upset with this and shouted, "He's not our dad, he's not our dad."

However, the youngest was still confused, and couldn't understand what role David played in their world.

So she asked her older sister, "What is he?" And she replied, "Just... he's just some guy in our lives!"

"And I was like, I need to marry this woman. Because of the emotional fallout."

When asked how he's referred to by them now, David laughed, "Still some guy in our lives."

"That's the favourite thing I've ever been called... 9-years-old going on 35!"

In the same interview, David revealed filming on the new season of Strangers Things should be complete by August.

He also talked about Marvel crossover conspiracy theories, which Duffer brother he likes better, and more.
