Millie and David, 50, were the subject of much speculation during the fifth and final season of ‘Stranger Things’, after reports she filed a harassment and bullying complaint against him ahead of production for season 5. He recently told Variety the report was a "weird thing" which "came out in a weird way", and added, “Straight up, Millie and I are working on several. You’ll see more of me and Millie, 10 years wasn’t enough. There is a special bond there. I love her. She loves me”.

David insisted it is normal to get involved in "arguments and disagreements" with colleagues who have had a close working relationship for so long. He added that they found it easy to resolve their differences once there were no other people involved.

He said, “It’s simple. It was just a simple rupture-and-repair thing that, once we cleared everybody out of the way and talked to each other, we’re fine. Everyone nowadays is very scared of talking about things. People are very scared of being human. It’s unfortunate, because I don’t know how to navigate this weird media world. But it was completely normal, and we adore each other and always have”. ‘Stranger Things’ Star Millie Bobby Brown Slams Media for Distasteful Headlines, Says 'I Am 21, I Am Going to Have Fun'.
