Jason Sudeikis thanks ex Olivia Wilde in Critics’ Choice Awards speech as her romance with Harry Styles heats up
JASON Sudeikis thanked his ex-fiancée, Olivia Wilde, during his Critics’ Choice acceptance speech, despite the couple’s heart-wrenching breakup in November of 2020.
The Ted Lasso actor has been reportedly “devastated” by their split after the actress left him and began dating singer Harry Styles.

Jason, 45, won the award for Best Comedy Series for the Apple TV show, to which he gave a heartfelt acceptance speech earlier tonight.
In a slew of thank you’s the comedian graciously thanked his ex of nine years and claimed the show itself was her idea.
“Holy smokes,” he gushed, continuing: “I want to thank my folks, Dan and Kathy. I want to thank my sisters, Kristin and Lizzie.”
Jason then mentioned Olivia, 36, with whom he shares two children, a son Otis, six, and daughter Daisy, four, as an integral piece of the show’s puzzle.

He added: “I want to thank their mom, Otis, and Daisy’s mom, Olivia, who had the initial idea to do this as a TV show.
“She was like, ‘You and Bill [Lawrence] and Joe [Kelly] love doing that so much you should do it as a TV show. I was, like, ‘No.’ She was right.’
“This has been a whack ass year and this thing has been a wonderful vessel to hear people’s stories of forgiveness of redemption and healing.”
In November of 2020, it was revealed that Jason and Olivia had gone their separate ways after nine years together.

Just two months later the actress was spotted with One Direction‘s Harry after he acted in her film Don’t Worry Darling.
A source detailed their split to Us Weekly, explaining: “Olivia called off the engagement in early November but only after she already had gotten close to Harry. Whether Harry knows it or not, he was a reason for the split.”
They added that Olivia’s new romance had “blindsided” Jason, and he was left “devastated” over the news.
Despite the actor’s alleged grief over the breakup, fans believe he too has moved on, after rumors spread that he was seeing Page 3 girl Keeley Hazell.

While appearing at the Golden Globes via Zoom last week, Jason sat in front of a white fireplace topped with decor.
Fans then spotted photos of Keeley from the same exact room, which seemed to confirm their arrangement.
The Sun exclusively revealed last month that the two had been secretly meeting up in London, though their relationship was platonic until recently.
Jason and Keeley remained friends over the past couple of years, but have now been seeing each other more frequently.

A source offered insight on their romance: “Jason has always found Keeley incredibly attractive, and has told pals he’s had a crush on her since her Page 3 days.
“When Jason found out about his wife and Harry, Keeley was one of the people whom he turned towards. During this time he was understandably devastated, but she was brilliant and incredibly supportive.
“He invited her to join him for a dinner with mates in LA, and their flirty banter quickly set tongues wagging. They have met up since, but obviously, it’s all very early days.”
