It always depends on the timing in life – not just on What a person does, but also when she does. It’s no coincidence that director Olivia Wilde was presented with an envelope containing custody papers at the precise moment she was presenting her film Don’t Worry, Darling at the CinemaCon in Las Vegas. Standing stunned at the exposure, she later said it was “malicious” what her ex-fiancé, actor Jason Sudeikis, did to her. He claimed to have had no idea, whereupon Wilde said: “You need accreditation and a Covid test – that got to to have been planned.”
