Olivia Wilde shares salad dressing recipe after ex-nanny allegation

Olivia Wilde has apparently responded to a report detailing allegations over the final days of her relationship with ex-partner Jason Sudeikis, which included an anecdote about the “Ted Lasso” star getting upset after Wilde made a salad for her she had made “Don’t Worry, Honey” star Harry Styles.

On Tuesday night, Wilde shared an image of a page from Nora Ephron’s novel Heartburn with a passage revealing a salad recipe on her Instagram Story. Ephron’s 1983 autobiographical novel details her troubled marriage to second husband Carl Bernstein and their eventual divorce.

Wilde’s post appears to be in response to a recent Daily Mail report detailing the breakdown in her and Sudeiki’s domestic partnership and focusing on allegations made by the couple’s ex-nanny. The article states that Sudeikis, who shares two children with Wilde, was “angry” after his partner prepared a salad for Styles with her “special dressing”. According to the ex-nanny, the encounter left Sudekis “scolding angrily [Wilde] and filmed the encounter before attempting to stop her leaving by getting under the car.”

The report features the ex-nanny’s timeline of the couple’s ending and how Wilde’s burgeoning interest in Styles intersected with the marriage. Other important details in the article are quotes from private conversations between the ex-nanny and both spouses.

Wilde’s post represents the latest development and an ongoing series of scandals surrounding her thriller Don’t Worry Darling. Rumors circulated (and have been denied) that the director and her leading lady, Florence Pugh, had had an argument on set, compounded by the conspicuous lack of promotion for the film on Pugh’s official social media accounts. Additionally, Wilde was publicly served with custody papers by Sudeiki’s legal team while presenting a trailer for the film at industry conference CinemaCon. In later months, Shia LaBeouf (who was initially cast in the role, which eventually went to Styles) denied the filmmaker’s claims that he was fired from the production.
