Where Olivia Wilde And Harry Styles Are Headed Next
Olivia Wilde and Harry Styles rocked the tabloids when they sparked romance rumors at the start of 2021. Speculation surrounding their relationship increased after the actress and pop star were seen holding hands at a wedding in Montecito, Calif., Page Six reported. "They were affectionate around their friends, held hands, and looked very happy. They have dated for a few weeks," a source told the outlet.
The scandal of it all comes after Wilde announced her separation from fiance Jason Sudeikis in November 2020 after seven years and two children together (via People). The former couple had reportedly split earlier in the year in an "amicable" and private breakup. But, fans were surprised by news of their budding romance considering that she had just casted Styles in her film Don't Worry Darling two months before her breakup announcement (via Cosmopolitan). Once word of them dating reached the press, source reports continued to tease the romance while fans dug for details on social media.
Wilde seemingly confirmed the chatter on Valentine's Day 2021 when she shared a photo of Styles while promoting the film they're working on together. In the post's lengthy caption, Wilde praised Styles for infusing "every scene with a nuanced sense of humanity." She credited him for blowing "us away every day with his talent, warmth, and ability to drive backwards." Considering the timing of the post and the depth of her caption, Wilde appeared to confirm their rumored romance.
Olivia Wilde and Harry Styles are hanging in his homeland
By February 2021, Olivia Wilde headed to Harry Styles' native London after filming for Don't Worry Darling wrapped, People reported. A source told the outlet that the new couple had been staying at the "Watermelon Sugar" singer's Los Angeles home "for a while" before flying overseas to reunite with Wilde's two children, son Otis and daughter Daisy, while their dad Jason Sudeikis filmed the second season of Ted Lasso in London.
With Styles traveling to London with Wilde, this seemingly confirms insider claims on how "serious" the two appear to be after a few weeks of dating. While filming together, they reportedly would "spend all their time together," sources shared. "She is also very happy with Harry," they added. After things between the co-stars "quickly turned romantic," those on set claim to have seen the spark between them. "During breaks, he hasn't been able to stay away and visited her trailer," an insider told People.
Fans have been zeroed in on the unexpected romance with reference to their 10-year age gap. But, it's something that only intrigues Styles' eccentric lifestyle. "The fact that she's ten years older doesn't bother him at all," a source told Hollywood Life. "If anything, it's a plus because he loves that dynamic." Sounds like a match made in Hollywood heaven.
