Olivia Wilde is opening up about the realities of her family life.
Six years after separating from Jason Sudeikis, the Don’t Worry Darling star offered rare insight into how they coparent their children, Otis, 12, and Daisy, 10.
“I’m genuinely proud of how well we coparent our kids as a family,” Wilde said during the Nov. 14 episode of The New York Times’ The Interview podcast. “We’ve found a healthy balance.”
Still, Wilde acknowledged that reaching that point was anything but effortless.
“It’s incredibly difficult,” continued the Invite director. “Anyone who acts like it’s simple—like, ‘You consciously uncouple and then everything falls into place’—that’s bulls–t.”
Wilde also said that she and Sudeikis prioritize being truthful with their children about their emotions and family dynamic.
“I’m grateful I can give them a life with parents who are authentic about how everyone is feeling and doing,” she explained. “When you try to conceal conflict from your children, they pick up on it. They’re the most intuitive people in the house.”
