Olivia Wilde: Jason Sudeikis doesn’t pay child support despite ‘superior’ income
Olivia Wilde claims Jason Sudeikis has paid her zero child support despite earning a “significantly superior” income.
In court documents obtained by the Blast Tuesday, 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 extracurricular 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.
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 attorney 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 attorney Laura Wasser to represent her, Wilde is requesting $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.
However, a source close to Jason claims to Page Six, “Olivia and Jason shared costs equally and fairly throughout their relationship, including everything related to the children.
“Jason took it upon himself to initiate the proceedings in the first place to ensure that the kids would be properly cared for by both parents based on the court deciding what is fair financially going forward.”
Wilde revealed her more-than-$10 million net worth in a previous legal filing as she accused Sudeikis of litigating her “into debt.”

Wilde wrote in her declaration that she has $645,187 in bank accounts, $3,902,689 in stocks and bonds and $6,021,860 in real estate and other property, totaling $10,569,736.
The documents also reportedly stated that the “House” alum has a monthly income of $71,667, but she reportedly spends $107,000 a month on her mortgage, laundry and cleaning and more.
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.
