Honestly, if you're looking for a wedding ring on Olivia Wilde’s finger right now, you’re going to be looking for a long time.
The short answer is: Olivia Wilde is not married. As of early 2026, the Don’t Worry Darling director is single, though her dating life has been anything but quiet lately. There is a massive amount of confusion out there because she was in a very high-profile relationship with Jason Sudeikis for nearly a decade. People just assumed they tied the knot. They didn't.
She's only actually been married once in her entire life, and it wasn't to the Ted Lasso star or a British pop icon.
The One Marriage Nobody Remembers
Basically, the only man who can officially call himself Olivia Wilde’s ex-husband is Tao Ruspoli.
Back in 2003, when Wilde was only 19 years old, she eloped with Ruspoli, an Italian filmmaker and musician who happens to be part of an aristocratic family. It sounds like something out of a movie—they actually got married on a school bus in Washington, Virginia. They wanted total privacy, and a bus was apparently the best place to find it.
They stayed married for eight years.
By 2011, they called it quits. Wilde later talked about how she felt like a failure during the divorce, but it was just one of those things where you grow up and realize you're a different person at 27 than you were at 19. The divorce was finalized in September 2011, and she didn't even ask for spousal support.

The Jason Sudeikis "Marriage" That Wasn't
This is where the internet gets really tripped up.
Olivia Wilde and Jason Sudeikis started dating in November 2011. They got engaged in January 2013. They had two kids together: Otis and Daisy. They were together for nine years.
Naturally, everyone just started calling him her husband.

But they never actually walked down the aisle. Wilde famously said in interviews that once you have children, you’re already "committed and promised," so the formal ceremony didn't feel like a necessity.
The relationship hit a wall in 2020. The split was messy—like, "getting served custody papers while on stage at CinemaCon" messy. If you saw those photos of her looking stunned while holding a manila envelope in 2022, that was the fallout of this non-marriage ending. While they’ve been spotted hugging at their kids' playground recently in 2025, they are strictly co-parents.
Who Is She Dating Now?
Since the big Harry Styles era ended in late 2022, Wilde has kept things a bit more low-key.
There was a solid stint where she was linked to actor Dane DiLiegro (he's the 6'8" guy who played the Predator in Prey). They were seen looking pretty cozy at basketball games in early 2025, but that seems to have cooled off.
Right now, the rumors are all about Caspar Jopling.
If that name sounds familiar, it’s because he’s a British art dealer and the ex-husband of singer Ellie Goulding. Reports surfaced in July 2025 that Wilde and Jopling were a thing. In early 2026, things seem to be getting serious enough that Wilde reportedly sold her Los Angeles home at a loss to spend more time abroad, likely in London.
Why the Confusion Persists
- The Sudeikis Era: Being engaged for seven years and having two kids is "socially" married, even if it isn't legally married.
- The Harry Styles Frenzy: Their two-year romance was so intense that fans were constantly looking for secret wedding rings in Italy.
- The Aristocracy Factor: Because her first husband was technically "Papal nobility," some old tabloids still refer to her as a princess, which adds to the formal "married" aura.
What to Keep in Mind
If you're following her story, don't expect a wedding announcement anytime soon. Wilde has been pretty vocal about how public relationships can become a "spectacle" that she wants to avoid. She’s focused on her kids, Otis and Daisy, and her directing career.
If you want to keep up with the real facts, stick to her official project announcements. The tabloid noise about her "husband" is usually just people mislabeling her ex-fiancé or her current boyfriend.
