The former nanny of Olivia Wilde and Jason Sudeikis is quickly becoming a one-woman version of Deuxmoi.
The scurrilous gossiper has been dropping titanic revelations about the broken Hollywood couple all week, and her latest calls into question Wilde’s pursuit of Harry Styles.
Wilde’s former nanny, whose identity remains unknown, claimed to The Daily Mail that the actress and director only started to date Styles in order to boost her own public image.
“She didn’t think Jason made her look that good I guess. Even now with Harry, I really believe she’s feeding off his fame to be relevant,” she alleged.
While Styles is obviously a global megastar, it’s not as if Sudeikis was selling dodgy secondhand cars; he was a Saturday Night Live favourite and star of the biggest sitcom of the last few years.
“She wasn’t really that great as an actress or director. Jason called her mediocre. It’s kind of like, OK, now she’s in the spotlight and Jason always said she wanted the spotlight,” the woman added.
She further claimed that the Booksmart director just gets the spotlight due to Harry’s fame, with Sudeikis supposedly once telling her that she “was very concerned what people would think” about her relationships.

It’s just the latest shocking allegation about Sudeikis and Wilde’s extremely fraught former relationship. The nanny has also claimed that the former once threw himself under the latter’s car in an attempt to stop her from going to visit Styles.
The unnamed nanny used to look after the former couple’s children, son Otis, 8, and daughter Daisy, 6, for three years.
Sudeikis and Wilde, though, have decried their former nanny’s allegations. “As parents, it is incredibly upsetting to learn that a former nanny of our two young children would choose to make such false and scurrilous accusations about us publicly,” they said in a joint statement released earlier this week.
