Olivia Wilde is addressing allegations regarding her personal life – particularly about public perceptions on her as a mom.
In a new interview with Elle, the 38-year-old Don’t Worry Darling director and actress spoke about being a mom in the spotlight.
Olivia shares custody with her ex Jason Sudeikis. Their relationship and separation have made headlines – including Olivia being served papers while onstage at a public event.
She said about parenting with Jason:
‘I share custody of my kids with my ex.”
Olivia then addressed the assumptions about her as a mom:
“If I’m photographed not with my kids, people assume I have abandoned them, like my kids are just somewhere in a hot car without me.”
She spoke further about the allegations that she has abandoned her children:
“The suggestion is that I have abandoned my role as a mother.
You know why you don’t see me with my kids? Because I don’t let them get photographed. Do you know the lengths that I go to to protect my kids from being seen by you?”
