A new report claims that Millie Bobby Brown filed a complaint against Stranger Things co-star David Harbour, accusing him of bullying and harassment on set.
According to the Daily Mail, Brown filed a “lengthy complaint” about Harbour before the show began filming its fifth and final season.
The outlet claims that Netflix investigated the matter internally, but the results of that investigation are unknown.
The situation was reportedly serious enough that Brown filmed the final season with “a personal representative” on hand to ensure that she was not subjected to any further mistreatment.
The Mail specifies that Harbour has not been accused of any sexual impropriety.
Scandal on the set of ‘Stranger Things’
“Millie Bobby Brown filed a harassment and bullying claim before they started shooting the last season,” a source tells the outlet.
“There were pages and pages of accusations. The investigation went on for months.”
The news comes on the heels of months of bad press for Harbour.
The 50-year-old’s marriage to Lily Allen came to an end, with her accusing him of rampant infidelity.
Allen’s new album contains scathing lyrics that appear to be referring to Harbour.
Brown, meanwhile, appears to be thriving. In May of 2024, she married Jake Bongiovi, the son of music legend Jon Bob Jovi.
Earlier this year, Millie and Jake announced that they’d adopted a child.
Stranger Things began filming when Harbour was 41 and Brown was 12. In the past, he’s claimed that he feels a paternal protectiveness for his much-younger co-star.
“Millie and I have always had sort of a special relationship because I knew her when she was so young. I knew her before any of this big fame hit,” Harbour said on a 2021 episode of Dan Patrick’s podcast.
“I have a real protective feeling for her. I have a real, like, worry,” he continued.
“I worry about her and the fame and all that she has to struggle with.”
Neither Harbour nor Brown has commented on the Mail‘s report. The final season of Stranger Things debuts on November 26.
