The shocking moment shocked and angered Hollywood on Tuesday night when photos surfaced of a puzzled 38-year-old Wilde opening a “personal and confidential” Manila dossier containing custody of the two children he shares with Σουντέικις. 46, while he was in the middle of the street talking about Don’t Worry Darling’s upcoming thriller.
Within minutes, the Internet sparked a heated debate over the incident, with some accusing Sudeikis of being “evil” and “savage” for subjecting his children’s mother to such public humiliation.
However, a source close to the former couple has now revealed that he was just as blinded by the service as Wilde, telling exclusively DailyMail.com that Sundekis “had no idea” that her documents were being shown at this year’s CinemaCon in Las Vegas. – and claimed that she was not informed of the incident until her pictures were made public to open the file on stage.
“Jason had no idea this was happening,” the initiate shared. “No one knew until the photos suddenly appeared. He is terrified of the whole thing and would never want Olivia to be in such a situation.
“His only priority is their children and to make sure they are safe and happy.”
The source added that these documents were not in fact “custody” documents, as it is widely mentioned, but rather documents of jurisdiction, which usually determine which court will hear and decide a child custody case.
Jason Sundekis “had no idea” that ex-fiancée Olivia Wilde had served on stage at CinemaCon and was “terrified” by the incident, a source told DailyMail.com. The actor appears to be filming for Ted Lasso in London last month
Sundekis has come under fire on the Internet after Wilde indulged in legal documents while on stage in front of 4,100 industry executives discussing her new film, which sparked her romance with Harry Styles.
The 38-year-old actress was in the middle of a screening for her film Don’t Worry Darling in Las Vegas when she received legal documents from Sudeikis’ ex-partner, 46, who was described as “wild” and “bad” as a result.
However, an insider spoke out in defense of Sundekis (who was seen with Wilde and their two children, Otis and Daisy, in 2018), insisting that “he would never want Olivia to be in such a situation.”
“Documents have been drawn up to establish jurisdiction over the children of Ms Wilde and Mr Sudeikis,” one confidant explained.
‘Mr. “Sudekis did not previously know the time or place of delivery of the file, as this would depend solely on the process service company involved and he would never forgive its performance in such an inappropriate way.”
A DailyMail.com source confirmed that the woman who served the documents on Wilde was a Los Angeles-based litigation server hired by the Brooklyn-based Sudeikis Law Office to hand over the documents to her. According to the novel, the actor had no contact with the server, whose employment was handled entirely by his lawyers.
The source said that the actor has been disgusted and upset by the accusations made in the light of the incident, in which some social media users claimed that the move was a calculated form of revenge – however those close to him insist that it is not apply.
Wilde was in the middle of a presentation for her new film – which she directed and starred the 28-year-old Styles beauty – when she was briefly interrupted by the female server in the process, who approached the stage from the front rows of the audience. at the Vegas event and slipped Manila’s envelope at the front of the stage toward her.
‘This is for me?’ Wilde asked, before opening the file and reading the documents for a moment. Then she continued her presentation.
It was initially reported that the documents were a spontaneous script sent by a fan in the hope of catching Wilde’s eye – but that did not stop the furious speculation among those attending the annual event that the dossier actually contained legal documentation.
The incident will undoubtedly also have raised questions about the legality of the serving and whether it was conducted in a perfectly appropriate and lawful manner.
Normally, the process of submitting legal documents to someone must be carried out by a third party who is over 18 years old. This person could be a lawyer, friend or family member or – as Wilde did – a hired process server paid to deliver the legal documents in person.
The rules for service of documents vary from state to state, however the law usually stipulates that documents must be delivered directly to an accused – and this person must usually be informed that court documents are being given to him.
The fact that Wilde disputed whether the file was for her and then proceeded to open it on stage suggests that she did not know its contents.
Twitter has sparked controversy over the incident, with many blasting Sudeikis and calling for him to move, with many insisting that his favorite character, Ted Lasso, did not approve of such a “wild” maneuver.
The majority of social media users believe that the move was calculated, however some applauded Sudekis, implying that it was worth taking revenge on Wilde after she made public her romance with Styles so soon after their separation.
He also opened the confidential documents on stage when he was photographed. It could well be argued that this endangered privacy, especially as the documents were depicted in many images taken during the public event.
It is unknown at this time what he will do after leaving the post.
Wilde and Sudeikis started dating in November 2011 and got engaged in December 2012, before finally divorcing in November 2020. They share two children together – eight-year-old son Otis and five-year-old daughter Daisy.
The details of their current custody agreement remain private and neither Wilde nor Sudeikis have commented on the contents of the dossier.
However, Twitter has erupted with speculation about the shocking moment, with some seizing the opportunity to compare Sudeikis with his favorite Apple TV + Ted Lasso character, whom many have observed would never have forgiven such “wild” behavior. .
‘So Ted Lasso is an A ** Ho?’ One person wrote on Twitter, while another shouted: “D ** k move Ted Lasso”.
“There is no way Ted Lasso would have done that,” added a third, as another insisted: “Ted Lasso would never have done that.”
Some social media users accused the actor of wanting to ensure that his ex was served in the newspapers in as public a forum as possible, implying that it was his way of revenge after her 28-year-old romance with Styles was made public. just a few months after the announcement of her separation from Sudeikis.
“I had served an ex with papers in the past and there is no way Jason Sundekis did not know where and when Olivia Wilde would be served … NO WAY! “When and where is something that is discussed before the documents are delivered,” a Twitter user wrote.
Others claimed that Sundekis “deserved” to take revenge on Wilde after she made public her romance with Stiles, 28, shortly after the former couple divorced.
“I have to give my hat to Jason Sundakis,” one man wrote. “I would do the same thing … People only want certain things to be public. “I think everything should be a fair game as soon as you put yourself out there.”
