Lily Allen has denied claims that she is being forced to sell her £4.2 million (€5.4 million) mansion to pay a hefty tax bill.

The 31-year-old singer took to twitter to set the record straight saying she wasn't selling her home for financial reasons.

When a user on twitter asked why she was selling the mansion Allen replied, “because I'm moving to London full time.”

Allen told another user it was for sale, “because I don't live there anymore."

“Put it this way, as far as I'm aware I have no outstanding tax bill, and I still own the house. So It doesn't add up,” she added. “I did pay a large tax bill and I am selling my house [sic].”

Allen’s tweets came after The Daily Mail reported the mansion was for sale to pay off her large tax bill.

Allen is said to be heading back to the studio to record the follow up to 2014’s Sheezus.
