British singer Lilly Allen has admitted that she returned an adopted puppy after it ate her family’s passports.
Speaking in a recent episode of her podcast ‘Miss Her?’, Allen said she adopted the puppy named Mary during the coronavirus pandemic in 2020 but returned it after it ate her passport, as well as those of her two daughters, Ethel, 12, and Marnie, 11.
The singer said she and her husband, actor David Harbour, are considering adopting a new puppy.
She said: “We actually did adopt a dog already, but then it ate my passport and so I took her back to the home. She ate all three of our passports and they had our visas in and I cannot tell you how much money it cost me to get everything replaced because it was in COVID.
“And so, it was just an absolute logistical nightmare. Because the father of my children lives in England, I couldn’t get them back to see their dad for like four months, five months, because this f**king dog had eaten the passports. I just couldn’t look at her — I was like, ‘You’ve ruined my life.’
“Passports weren’t the only thing she ate, she was a very badly behaved dog and I really tried very hard with her but it just didn’t work out and the passports were the straw that broke the camel’s back, so to speak.”
While Allen lives in New York with movie star Harbour, her two children are from a previous marriage to Sam Cooper in the UK.
Meanwhile, animal rights charity PETA has written an open letter to Allen, begging her not to get another dog.
According to the organisation, dogs “should never be treated as accessories to be discarded when they become inconvenient”.
