Jason Sudeikis shares about his 'daunting and overwhelming' single life as a parent, after his split from Olivia Wilde

Jason Sudeikis, the ‘Ted Lasso’ star, has opened up about his single life and the tumultuous journey with the struggles. The 50-year-old actor-comedian was previously linked to the renowned filmmaker Olivia Wilde, with whom she shares two kids. After they split in 2020, the actor has been figuring out his life as a parent, which he refers to as daunting and overwhelming. Here’s a closer look at Jason Sudeikis’ single life as a parent. When asked whether he would want more kids in the future, Sudeikis replied, “I would if, yeah, if I fell in love,” during the Friends Keep Secrets podcast with Benny Blanco, Lil Dicky (Dave Burd), and Kristin Batalucco on June 2, 2026. Claiming that he likes to be in relation to people, the actor said, “I'm not at a point in my life where, you know, where it feels good or fulfilling to date numerous people all at once,” before adding, “Yeah, that feels daunting and overwhelming, especially with being a parent.” In the priority list, Sudeikis is keeping his kids at the top. If he is dating anybody, the person will not be the number one on his call sheet, as “the show biz saying would go, like the kids are,” he said, adding that even more than himself. He shared his perspective of being fulfilling, “And so then there's that little bit as you get older, you're like, ‘Oh God, I got to make sure my cup's full in order for other people to get the overflow.’” Before they broke up, Jason Sudeikis and Olivia Wilde were engaged for seven years. They met on the set of Saturday Night Live in 2011, as he revealed in an interview with Steven Colbert in 2017, saying, “We hit it off that night.” He popped the question in the romantic city of Paris in 2013. Now, they share joint custody of their children.
