Olivia Wilde claims Jason Sudeikis has paid her zero child support despite earning a “significantly superior” income.

In court documents obtained by The Blast this week, the Don’t Worry Darling star and director said she is now carrying “100% of the costs for the children’s care,” which includes food, clothing and extra-curricular activities, while son Otis, 8, and daughter Daisy, 6, are with her.

Wilde did, however, note that she and Sudeikis split their kids’ school tuition, reports Page Six.

The Booksmart director requested the court order the Ted Lasso star to pay child support so that she can provide for their children “commensurate with Jason’s standard of living.”

Wilde, 39, also wants Sudeikis, 47, to contribute to her lawyer and accountant fees not only because the Horrible Bosses actor is in a financially “significantly superior” position but also because she is burning money as a result of “Jason and his counsel’s egregious, unnecessary and aggressive conduct.”

Using famed lawyer Laura Wasser to represent her, Wilde is requesting US$500,000 from Sudeikis and for him to pay child support retroactive to the date which she filed the case.

“Jason shares equal responsibility with Olivia for the support of their children, yet Olivia has borne the lion’s share of the expenses for their children since the pendency of this action,” the documents state, according to the outlet.

Wilde revealed her more-than-US$10 million (A$15 million) net worth in a previous legal filing as she accused Sudeikis of litigating her “into debt.”

In a declaration filed with the Los Angeles Superior Court last month, Wilde said she has US$645,187 (A$969,941) in bank accounts, US$3,902,689 (A$5,867,107) in stocks and bonds and US$6,021,860 (A$9,052,963) in real estate and other property, totalling in US$10,569,736 (A$15,890,012).

The declaration also stated that Wilde has a monthly income of US$71,667

(A$107,740).

However, she reportedly spends US$107,000 (A$160,858) a month, including nearly US$4,000 (A$6013) on laundry and cleaning, a mortgage of more than US$58,000 (A$87,194) and US$6,500 (A$9771) on basic utilities.

In response to the court documents leaking, Wilde’s rep said in a statement to E! News, “The sealed and private documents that were leaked today are the utmost breach of trust and never intended for public consumption.

“This private family matter, involving young children, has continued to be a tabloid fixture and the press coverage dating back a year has been relentless and traumatic.”

The exes were engaged from 2013 to 2020.
