Jason Sudeikis was accompanied by his two children, Otis, 12, and Daisy, 9, on the red carpet for the premiere of "Ted Lasso" season four in Los Angeles. The event took place at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures.
Sudeikis, who shares Otis and Daisy with his ex-partner Olivia Wilde, posed with his children in front of a large soccer ball. He was seen playfully shielding their eyes from the sun at one point. For the premiere, Sudeikis wore a dark blue suit with a patterned green button-down shirt and a colorful tie. His children coordinated their outfits in white and denim.
This appearance marks a notable public outing for the children, occurring shortly after Wilde praised their coparenting dynamic. In a June episode of the "Call Her Daddy" podcast, Wilde stated that she and Sudeikis work effectively as separated co-parents, allowing their children to benefit from their full presence when they are with each parent. She described their arrangement as enabling the children to receive "the best of us."
Wilde also reflected on a 2022 incident where she was served custody papers while on stage, an event she described as "traumatizing" and "f***ed up." She emphasized that despite past difficulties, they have put their differences aside for their children.
Sudeikis and Wilde were together for nearly a decade, ending their seven-year engagement in 2020. Their relationship concluded amidst reports of Wilde dating Harry Styles, whom she cast in her film "Don't Worry Darling" in late 2020. Wilde has denied infidelity, stating in an October 2022 Vanity Fair interview that the notion of her leaving Sudeikis for Styles was "completely inaccurate."
"Ted Lasso," an Apple TV+ comedy-drama created by and starring Sudeikis, is set to return for its fourth season on August 5. The show has recently faced reports of behind-the-scenes drama, including ongoing rewrites by Sudeikis that have reportedly caused friction on set, according to co-star Hannah Waddingham. Multiple sources have also suggested that Sudeikis's perfectionist approach has created a "stressful" working environment.
