KEY POINTS
- Olivia Wilde and Harry Styles called it quits after nearly two years of dating, a report says

- The two stars reportedly have different priorities
Olivia Wilde and Harry Styles have called it quits, according to reports.
The "Don't Worry Darling" director, 38, and the former One Direction singer, 28, are "taking a break" from their relationship after nearly two years of dating, multiple sources confirmed to People Friday.
The decision was reportedly related to their respective careers and priorities and was "very amicable."
"He's still touring and is now going abroad. She is focusing on her kids and her work in L.A.," one source told the outlet. "They're still very close friends."
A friend also told People of the pair, "Right now, they have different priorities that are keeping them apart."
There is "no bad blood" between Wilde and Styles, and neither of them dumped the other, an anonymous source told Page Six.
"This is the longest relationship Harry's ever had, so clearly they have a special bond," the insider added.
One factor that contributed to their breakup was the challenges of dating long-distance, according to the source.
"They're on a break. It's impossible to have a relationship when he's in every continent next year and Olivia has her job and her kids," the insider claimed. "This is the right thing for both of them."
A second source told Page Six that Wilde and Styles are going on separate ways as he embarks on the South America leg of his tour, and she flies to London for a documentary.
"Things have been challenging for them as a couple because of Harry's tour, while Olivia needs to spend time with her kids in London, where they are with Jason," the unnamed source said.
Wilde attended Styles' concert in Los Angeles Tuesday with her two children with ex Jason Sudeikis — Otis, 8, and Daisy, 6. At the time, the two stars were already preparing to spend time apart, according to Page Six's first source, who noted, "They're friends, you'll still see them together."
Wilde and Styles went public with their relationship in January 2021, when they were spotted holding hands at a friend's wedding in Montecito, California. According to reports, she and Sudeikis split in November 2020, months before her first public sighting with Styles as a couple.
However, some reports have claimed that her romance with Styles started in October 2020, when she was still with the "Ted Lasso" actor.
"People have tried to make out that Harry and Olivia have only been dating for the past few weeks, but that's not right," an unnamed insider claimed to Page Six at the time. "Jason found out about Harry and pushed the conversation. Olivia then asked for a separation and news of the split was made public."
Wilde and Sudeikis were together for nine years and were engaged for seven before she started dating Styles.
In September, Wilde denied the rumors claiming she left Sudeikis for Styles, telling Vanity Fair: "The complete horses–t idea that I left Jason for Harry is completely inaccurate. Our relationship was over long before I met Harry. Like any relationship that ends, it doesn't end overnight."
