Dua Lipa fires team member after row over pro-Palestine group Kneecap

Dua Lipa has reportedly parted ways with David Levy, her longtime team member, after learning he signed a letter to Glastonbury asking to ban pro-Palestine group Kneecap from the stage.

Levy, was reportedly the first signatory on the letter after the Belfast rappers were accused of supporting Hezbollah terrorists.

The singer, 30, has been openly supportive of Palestine, and industry sources explained that this meant she felt she didn’t align with Levy any longer.

The industry source told The Mail on Sunday: ‘Dua made sure through her people that David Levy wasn’t working on her music any more. She is very openly pro-Palestine, and that doesn’t align with David.

‘She views him as being a supporter of Israel’s war in Gaza, and the terrible treatment of the Palestinians and that was made very clear through the letter that he signed and sent to Michael Eavis.’

There were many calls to ban the Irish rap group from the festival, with Prime Minister Kier Starmer also speaking out against the group at the time.

Kneecap made pro-Palestine statements at Coachella in April this year, causing critics like Sharon Osbourne to slam Kneecap’s set as ‘promoting terrorist organisations or spreading hate’.
