Exes Olivia Wilde and Jason Sudeikis have become unlikely allies, uniting to slam their ex-nanny after she made wild allegations about their relationship.

Former nanny lifts lid on Olivia Wilde and Jason Sudeikis’ split

Jason Sudeikis reportedly found out about ex-fiancee Olivia Wilde’s romance with Harry Styles on a long-forgotten Apple Watch.

The couple’s former nanny alleged in a new interview with Daily Mail that the Ted Lasso star uncovered the relationship details on an old tech device Wilde left behind while filming Don’t Worry Darling, which stars Styles.

“On the Monday morning [of] November 9, when I came back from a weekend off, [Jason] was crying a lot, crying and crying. I didn’t know what had happened at all,” the nanny claimed, reports the NY Post.

“After I’d got the kids ready, Jason came upstairs and was having some coffee. He was crying and a mess, saying, ‘She left us. She left us!’”

The nanny — who helped take care of the couple’s two kids, Daisy, 6, and Otis, 8 — further alleged that Sudeikis swiftly banned staffers from listening to any of Styles’ music in his house after the revelation.

The nanny, who was not identified by name, claims Sudeikis, 47, was completely blindsided when Wilde, 38, broke things off — despite the director claiming their separation was amicable.

“He was so broken-hearted — I felt for him,” the nanny alleged. “He started telling me details [of her relationship with Styles] and he said, ‘She put the move on him. She put the first move on him.’”

Shortly after their former nanny’s interview was published, the former couple released a joint statement, slamming her for releasing “false and scurrilous accusations.”

“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,” Sudeikis and Wilde told Page Six.

“Her now 18 month long campaign of harassing us, as well as loved ones, close friends and colleagues, has reached its unfortunate apex. 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.”

Wilde has publicly denied leaving Sudeikis for the 28-year-old former One Direction singer.

During her interview, the nanny also claimed Sudeikis threw himself under Wilde’s car one time to try to stop her from leaving to go see the Watermelon Sugar singer, 28.

“The night she left with her salad, Jason had chased after her, videotaping her in the house,” she told the Daily Mail.

“She was saying: ‘I’m scared of you, Jason, I’m scared of you.’ And he said: ‘If you’re scared of me, why are you leaving your kids with me?’

“So then, Jason went outside and lay under her car so she wouldn’t leave. She got in her car to back up, he lay under her car so she wouldn’t leave.”

“She went back into the house and he went in, it was back and forth. He said he was doing it on purpose to make her late going to see Harry,” the nanny claimed.

”Jason told me, ‘She made this salad and she made her special dressing and she’s leaving with her salad to have dinner with [Harry].’”

Things ultimately reached a breaking point when Sudeikis allegedly fired the child care worker when he was intoxicated.

“He said, ‘You’re going to get your stuff and get out. Why are you sending her messages?’ I said, ‘Jason, you’ve been drinking and I can tell that you’re drunk. You’re very angry and I’m afraid of you,’” the nanny alleged.

Wilde and Sudeikis separated in 2020 after more than seven years together. By January 2021, Wilde took her love with Styles public.

Things turned even uglier for the exes when Wilde was publicly served legal papers in April while she was talking on a panel at CinemaCon.

“Jason’s actions were clearly intended to threaten me and catch me off guard,” Wilde alleged, though Sudeikis claimed he never intended for the legal papers to be served so publicly.
