Jason Sudeikis is reportedly frustrated after his ex-fiancée, Olivia Wilde, went into detail about the end of their relationship.
During the Wednesday, June 17, episode of Call Her Daddy, Wilde, 42, spoke about a specific conversation she and Sudeikis, 50, had that made her realize their relationship was over.
“Jason and I had been having a rough time for a while. We had a real bumpy, bumpy ride,” the Don’t Worry Darling director told podcast host Alex Cooper.
Wilde went on to explain that on the way home from a birthday celebration for her, she asked the Ted Lasso star if he had gotten her anything for her birthday.
“He said, ‘What would I get you, Olivia? I don’t know you,’” she recalled. “And he wasn’t wrong. We didn’t know each other anymore. That was when we realized it was over.”
However, sources close to the actor told Rob Shuter‘s Naughty But Nice Substack on Thursday, June 18, that he felt like Wilde’s version of events left out important context.
“The narrative makes it sound like Jason simply checked out of the relationship,” one source said. “People close to them remember a far more complicated situation.”

Another source said that Sudeikis and “those closest to him feel the real story is being overlooked.”
“From their perspective, everything changed when Olivia fell for Harry [Styles],” the source continued. Wilde and Styles, 32, were in a relationship for nearly two years after meeting on the set of her film, Don’t Worry Darling in 2020 — around the same time she and Sudeikis called it quits.
“Jason has spent years rebuilding his life,” the source added. “He doesn’t understand why old wounds need to be reopened when everyone involved is trying to move on.”
A third source told Naughty But Nice that Sudeikis was initially worried about his kids learning of the former couple’s conversation in the future.
“Jason is incredibly private and was shocked to see this story resurface years later,” the source explained. “His first thought was their children. One day they’ll read these interviews, and that’s what hurts the most.”
The Tron: Legacy actress and Sudeikis first began dating in 2011 and went on to welcome two children – Otis, 12, and Daisy, 9.
