"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."
Another follower asked if that meant the story was a lie, to which Allen admitted, "Well, not quite, I did pay a large tax bill and I am selling my house".
Lily Allen said she'd put the Gloucestershire home on the market, which she bought for around £3m in 2010, because she's moving to London full-time.
She'd previously lived in the six-bedroom house with husband Sam Cooper, and daughters Ethel, four, and Marnie, three.
The house is now on sale for £4.2m.
It also includes a swimming pool, tennis court, gardens, barns and around seven acres of land.
