Olivia Wilde Opens Up About Co-Parenting And Showing Nsfw Clips To Son Otis

Olivia Wilde: Balancing Motherhood and Movies

Olivia Wilde is giving fans a sneak peek into her life as a hands-on mom and filmmaker. The savvy director, who shares two kids, Otis and Daisy, with former partner Jason Sudeikis, recently shared a charming moment on Instagram. In a time-lapse video, her 12-year-old son Otis can be seen sitting in on an editing session for Wilde's latest film, The Invite. This scene mirrors Wilde's childhood memories of accompanying her own mother, Leslie Cockburn, during film edits.

Wilde explained the emotional impact of this full-circle moment, writing, "Found this video Otis made on my phone while we were editing the movie, and it made me cry." She added a playful twist, noting, "And now my kid watches me edit scenes about pegging BUT STILL it’s sweet." As a co-star with Seth Rogen, Penélope Cruz, and Edward Norton in The Invite, Wilde is clearly juggling her roles as both an involved parent and a committed professional.

"I’m a very present mom even when I’m not able to be consistently present," Wilde shared during a recent Call Her Daddy podcast episode.

Co-Parenting Insights with Jason Sudeikis

On the June 17 episode of the Call Her Daddy podcast, Wilde reflected on her co-parenting journey with Jason Sudeikis. "I’m a co-parent. I share custody, and I am really grateful for the opportunity to have this space when I am completely with my kids," she explained to host Alex Cooper. Wilde noted that sharing custody brings a new perspective to parenting.

Despite their "bumpy ride" post-breakup in 2020 and during moments like the public serving of custody papers at CinemaCon 2022, Wilde and Sudeikis have found a way to amicably co-parent. "Jason has told me that he did not know," Wilde told Cooper about the CinemaCon incident, adding, "Whether or not he knew it was going to happen, I know it really hurt him to see it happening to me."

Family Fun and Memorable Moments

Before their split, Wilde and Sudeikis often shared family outings with their children, like attending a March For Our Lives demonstration in 2018. Wilde describes these shared experiences as core memories, with Daisy and Otis taking center stage. From attending basketball games to engaging in adorable shenanigans, the Wilde-Sudeikis family's moments are filled with laughter and love.

Wilde's Instagram captures heartwarming interactions, like celebrating National Daughter Day with Daisy or supporting Otis at a celebrity bowling fundraiser. Whether it's a day out at the museum or a playful snapshot at home, Wilde embraces every aspect of motherhood.
