Actor-Director Olivia Wilde has won the legal battle against her ex Jason Sudeikis over the custody of their children. The California-based court ruled in the favor of ‘Don’t Worry Darling’ star saying eight years old Otis and five-year-old Daisy officially resided in the Golden State.
Talking at an event promoting her upcoming project the actress alleged that her 46-year-old ‘Ted Lasso’s star ex-husband Jason wanted their children to travel to the New York home by serving the custody documents in April in the most belligerent manner.
In a filing, Olivia claimed that Jason - who she was in a relationship with from 2011 until 2020 - intended to “embarrass” and “threaten” her by getting the papers delivered in such a public setting.
The official documents served to the court through Olivia’s lawyer read “Jason’s actions were intended to threaten me and catch me off guard. He could have served me discreetly, but instead, he chose to serve me in the most aggressive manner possible.
The fact that Jason would embarrass me professionally and put our conflict on public display in this manner is extremely contrary to our children’s best interests. Since Jason has made it clear that we will not be able to work this out for our children’s sake outside of the court system, I filed a petition for custody in Los Angeles.”

Wilde claimed that Sudeikis used “outrageous legal tactics,” adding: “Jason’s actions were intended to threaten me. She added, “He could have served me discreetly, but instead he chose to serve me in the most aggressive manner possible.” The actor said that how Jason responded to the entire incident was unfair to the kids.
The 38-year-old actress is now in relation with her co-actor from ‘Don’t Worry Darling’ pop singer Harry Styles, 28. The reports of their relationship came into the public space when the two attended a wedding ceremony together in January 2021
