Raya was launched in 2015 as a dating app for people from creative industries but has since turned into what one New York Times journalist described as 'Illuminati Tinder'. The app's been back in the headlines this week after The Mail On Sunday revealed that Lily Allen played detective by pretending to be 'looking for women' – and found her husband David Harbour, 49, had already set up a dating profile.

The couple, who also met on the app and married in September 2020, are set to divorce after announcing their split late last year. Raya is so exclusive that it accepts only around 8 per cent of applicants, but it has more than 10,000 members, with 100,000 on the waiting list. Once users find a new partner, they usually disable their profile.
