OLIVIA BREAKS HER SILENCE
IT SEEMS that OLIVIA WILDE has had the last laugh – for now, at least – after she was publicly humiliated four months ago. Earlier this month the 38-year-old actress and director won her New York custody battle againstex-fiancé JASON SUDEIKIS (46). This came after a judge ruled that California, where Olivia is based, was home to their two kids, son OTIS (8) and daughter DAISY (5). Jason first filed a suit against Olivia in New York in October last year because he wanted Otis and Daisy to live with him in Brooklyn. It’s hard to believe that the once-happy couple, who were engaged for seven of the nine years they were together, have ended up in such a mess.
It all started going pear-shaped when Jason decided that he wanted to go to New York for the year while he was not working and wanted the kids with him during that time. “I did not agree, since the children have not lived in New York for several years,” Olivia said. Then things took an ugly turn. Olivia was sensationally handed legal documents while on stage for the CinemaCon event in Las Vegas in April this year. Later she admitted she was “caught off-guard” and said that Jason had embarrassed her professionally. But Jason, who also revealed in the documents that Olivia and the kids moved in with her boyfriend, Harry Styles, says he did not want to serve her while she was on stage and was “deeply upset” with how things transpired.
‘Jason’s actions were clearly intended to threaten me. He could have served me discreetly, but instead he chose to serve me in the most aggressive manner possible’
