“It’s like: ‘How dare you find humor in these things — you’re meant to be ashamed and scared, and if you don’t feel ashamed and scared we’re going to do everything that we can to push you back there.’”
Last week, Lily Allen revealed that she can’t remember how many abortions she’d had before getting an IUD, which is a form of contraception, at 23 years old.
Speaking to her best friend Miquita Oliver on their podcast, Miss Me?, Lily said: “I have an IUD now, I think I’m on my third, maybe fourth, and I just remember, before that was a complete disaster area. I was just… Yeah, I’d get pregnant all the time.”
And when Miquita expressed her surprise, Lily jokingly started singing to the tune of Frank Sinatra’s “My Way”: “Abortions, I’ve had a few, but then again, I can’t remember exactly how many.”
She then burst into laughter, confirming: “I can’t remember, I think maybe, like… I want to say four or five.”
Miquita revealed that she’d also had “about five” abortions, saying: “The pattern would be: Unfortunately, get pregnant, like, not want to be, have an abortion, then while I was sedated in said abortion, they’d give me a coil.” She added that she “can’t quite remember” why she ended up getting the coil taken out each time.
One week earlier, Miquita had said on Miss Me? that she used to feel “embarrassed” to say that she’d had more than one abortion. Speaking to Lily, she said: “I have had a few abortions, and I think one of them was coming up to about three and a half months and that was really terrifying, I had no idea.”
“I felt really embarrassed to even say that I had more than one abortion, why the (expletive) should I be ashamed? I have had a few,” she went on.
During this episode, Lily reiterated a point she was previously praised for making back in 2022, saying: “It actually irritates me, and I’ve said it before on the record. 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,’” she continued. “It’s like, shut up! Just: ‘I don’t want a (expletive) baby right now.’ Literally: ‘Don’t want a baby’ is enough reason.”
“One of the abortions I had, I hated the guy and had absolutely no interest in having his (expletive) child,” Miquita agreed. “I was like: ‘Absolutely not,’ and as you know, throughout my 20s and 30s, having a baby wasn’t really very important to me, and I’d have hated if I didn’t have the option and the freedom to do what I needed to do for my own life.”
And the two women’s candid conversations about their personal experiences with abortions ended up being heavily criticized on social media, with the pair admitting that it had been a “hard” week on Thursday’s episode of Miss Me?.
The conversation started with Lily reflecting on the fact that she has refused to toe the line throughout her career, even though it often results in backlash.
“There are times I sit there and I think: ‘Oh (expletive), life would be so much easier if I just sort of played the game and was a good little girl that said the rights and didn’t piss people off,’” she began. “And it’s hard, you know? It’s really difficult swimming upstream in a (expletive) sea of hateful comments, it’s really stifling.”
“I remember being offered media training, and I just thought: ‘I don’t want that, I don’t want to be taught how to work within the confines of it, that’s not what I’m here to do,’” Lily added. “With the comments we’ve had in the wake of these abortion comments, it’s not really about the thing. Lots of people have abortions, so it’s not really [abortions] that people are sensationalizing; it’s about the audacity of expressing it.”
“And being a woman, it’s like: ‘How dare you find humor in these things — you’re meant to be ashamed and scared, and if you don’t feel ashamed and scared we’re going to do everything that we can to push you back there,’” she went on. “And guess what? It works. I read a lot of that stuff last week, and when I was young, and I thought: ‘(expletive), I’m a bad person.’ But no, I’m actually a good person. People that are my friends and family know that I’m a good person.”
Lily then revealed that “for every horrible comment” she and Miquita received for their abortion conversations, “countless women” have messaged to say it had “alleviated them of their guilt and their shame” around abortions.
“It’s for all the millions of other women who have made a decision about their body,” Miquita agreed before joking: “And if you wanted to have a baby with some of the (expletive) assholes I didn’t want to have a baby with, that’s fine. That’s up to you; but I didn’t want to have a baby with them and start a family with them, and I made that choice for myself.”
“It’s about control,” Lily concluded. “It’s wanting to have control over our minds and our way of thinking, and the way that we feel and relate to ourselves. And that is actually… I can’t abide it. I can’t tolerate it.”
Lily, 40, is now mom to two daughters: 13-year-old Ethel, and 12-year-old Marnie, who she shares with her ex-husband, Sam Cooper. Miquita, now 41, is currently childfree, and has been open on the podcast about not being sure if she wants to have children in the future.

Thank you very much and God bless you.
I bet she is one of those 2X4 gals.
I wonder how that happened ...
My guess is she has low intelligence and almost zero social intelligence. She’s a narcissist.
I can’t remember how many little lives I ended. How many little souls never got a chance to live, to experience life, to grow up, to love, to learn, to marry, to even have their own children....and to live a life God gave them.....
Yeah, I can’t remember how many souls I destroyed.....pretty cool huh?
Lily Allen made lot of conservative pundits look stupid when they fell for her play acting as a Trad Wife. Supposedly her husband divorced her when he found out she was using lesbo escorts. Lily is a text book example of once a hoe always a hoe and a man should never try to make a wife out of a hoe.
Right? I feel like maybe she missed a step in there.
How many tiny faces? You will find out on that day.
Ping
Huh?
What a depressing story.
Obviously.
She is such an evil woman.
Ho, Ho, Ho, Ho, of all the Ho’s I’ve heard of she’s the Ho-est.
What a nasty piece of garbage.
Even her photos ooze sleaze.
Wonder how many of her abortions were twins.
