Jason Sudeikis and Olivia Wilde Respond to Former Nanny's Allegations About Their Split - Uk Reporters 

Jason Sudeikis and Olivia Wilde are putting on a united front against allegations made by their children's former nanny.

The exes who are parents to son Otis, 8, and daughter Daisy, 4 spoke out on Oct. 17 after the Daily Mail published an interview with the woman in question. In the article, the unidentified nanny detailed the former couple's allegedly tumultuous relationship leading up to their 2020 split and claimed that they had fired her from her position without severance pay.

In response to the accusations, Sudeikis and Wilde told Uk Reporters in a joint statement: "As parents, it is incredibly upsetting to learn that a former nanny of our two young children would choose to make such false and scurrilous accusations about us publicly."

Accusing the nanny of launching a "now 18 month long campaign of harassing us, as well as loved ones, close friends and colleagues," the duo added that the allegations have "reached its unfortunate apex."

They said, "We will continue to focus on raising and protecting our children with the sincere hope that she will now choose to leave our family alone."

Sudeikis, 47, and Wilde, 38, were together for almost 10 years before splitting in early 2020. News of their breakup came that November, when Wilde was working on her film Don't Worry Darling with now-boyfriend Harry Styles.

In her interview, the nanny said Sudeikis was left heartbroken after allegedly finding text messages between Wilde and Styles, 28, on an Apple Watch the actress had left at their house. She also alleged that the Ted Lasso star once laid under Wilde's car to prevent her from leaving their home during a dispute. According to the nanny, Sudeikis was upset that Wilde was allegedly bringing a salad with special dressing to have dinner with Styles. The nanny told Daily Mail, "Out of everything, he was like, 'she made her special salad dressing and took it to him.'"
