Celebrity dating app Raya's clients are a deadly secret kept by the elites. But I managed to infiltrate it... and you'll never guess which A-listers popped up

This might sound like a fever dream, but it's the day-to-day reality of being a member of Raya, the so-called 'celebrity dating app' and the one on which David Harbour – Stranger Things actor and the husband of Lily Allen – has reportedly been running a secret profile. Those reported to have used it include singer John Mayer and actors Ben Affleck, Paul Mescal, Chris Rock and, of course, Owen Wilson (three of this gorgeous bunch eventually appeared on my feed). It's said that only eight per cent of applicants get past the stringent screening process, meaning lots are left on the waiting list for years – a long, sad roll call of 100,000 people, apparently.
