Harry Styles and Olivia Wilde’s whirlwind romance had fans buzzing from the moment it came to light. The singer and the filmmaker quietly began dating, and while they tried to keep their love story under the radar, the public was quick to catch on. For nearly two years, they were one of Hollywood’s most talked-about couples, balancing fame with their private lives.

Actor and filmmaker Olivia Wilde.

Despite their efforts to stay low-key, the relationship was always in the spotlight. However, after almost two years together, the pair called it quits in 2022. But what brought Styles and Wilde together in the first place?

Harry Styles and Olivia Wilde met on a movie set

Harry StylesandOlivia Wildefirst crossed paths while working on the movieDon’t Worry Darlingin late 2020. But their meeting wasn’t just by chance, it almost felt like fate had a hand in it. Originally, actor Shia LaBeouf was set to star in the film, but things didn’t pan out. While rumors swirled that LaBeouf was fired, he claimed otherwise, stating he left the project due to disagreements over rehearsal schedules.

LaBeouf wrote in an email to Wilde which he then forwarded toVariety,

Harry Styles as Jack Chambers and Florence Pugh as Alice Chambers in the movie Don’t Worry Darling.

You and I both know the reasons for my exit. I quit your film because your actors and I couldn’t find time to rehearse.

Regardless of the reason, his exit paved the way for Harry Styles to step in. In September 2020, Styles officially joined the cast, replacing LaBeouf alongside Florence Pugh in the thriller directed by Wilde. From the moment Styles stepped on set, sparks seemed to fly between him and Wilde. The two formed a connection that would later blossom into a full-fledged romance.

Looking back, it’s hard not to see their meeting as a twist of destiny, an unexpected turn of events that brought two creative souls together at the perfect time. Whether it was the universe or just Hollywood serendipity, the set ofDon’t Worry Darlingbecame the starting point of a relationship that captured headlines and hearts alike.

Did Harry Styles causeOlivia Wilde’s split from Jason Sudeikis?

Olivia Wilde andJason Sudeikishad been together for nearly a decade, starting their romance back in 2011. They got engaged and shared many happy milestones, including the birth of their son, Otis, in 2014, and their daughter, Daisy, in 2016. Despite their long engagement and family life, they never officially tied the knot. By late 2020, however, their relationship came to an end.

When news broke in January 2021 about Wilde’s budding romance with Harry Styles, just a couple of months after her split from Sudeikis, rumors began swirling. Many speculated that Styles might have been the reason behind the breakup. But according to Wilde, the timeline doesn’t quite match up. Wilde said (viaVanity Fair)

The complete horses**t idea that I left Jason for Harry is completely inaccurate. Our relationship was over long before I met Harry. Like any relationship that ends, it doesn’t end overnight. Unfortunately, Jason and I had a very bumpy road, and we officially dissolved the relationship towards the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. We were raising two kids during lockdown, so we co-parented through that time.

She clarified that her relationship with Sudeikis had been on shaky ground long before Styles came into the picture. The cracks had started to show during the pandemic, with both Wilde and Sudeikis facing their own challenges. While the breakup was far from smooth, she emphasized that their issues were personal and unrelated to her connection with the pop star.

Though the ex-couple’s split was messy and often played out in the public eye, Styles did not hold much weight. Sometimes, relationships run their course, and the timing just made it easier for people to draw conclusions. Wilde and Sudeikis’ story had already reached its final chapter before Styles stepped onto the scene.

Why did Harry Styles and Olivia Wilde end their relationship?

After nearly two years of being together, Olivia Wilde and Harry Styles decided to go their separate ways, leaving fans surprised. According to sources, the couple chose to take a step back and focus on their individual priorities.

Styles’ music career had him constantly on the move, touring around the world, while Wilde’s attention was rooted in Los Angeles with her work and her kids. The physical distance and busy schedules made it challenging to maintain their relationship, despite their strong relationship. A source said exclusively toPeople,

He’s still touring and is now going abroad. She is focusing on her kids and her work in L.A. It’s a very amicable decision. They’re still very close friends.

However, there was no drama behind the decision. The split was reportedly mutual and amicable, with both choosing to remain on good terms. Even though their romantic journey came to an end, their bond as friends stayed intact.
