Mohammed al Fayed has helps Lily Allen move home by offering her Harrods discounts.

A family friend told Mirror UK : "Lily's flat is lovely, but it helps when you've got friends in high places. When she told Camilla ( Mohammed al Fayed's daughter) she was moving into her new place she jumped into action and asked her dad if he could help Lily out.

"Of course he said 'yes'. Not all of it was free, but he gave Lily a massive discount - well over half price - on household stuff that should have cost more than £30,000.

She picked up things like washing machines and dishwashers to make her house completely top-of-the-range.

"He really likes Lily ... they met when she opened the Harrods' sale for him a couple of years ago and got on like a house on fire.

"Mr al Fayed let her have the run of the store that time - and he was more than happy to do that for her again.

"He is always very generous with his friends."
