Olivia Wilde Recalls Being Served Custody Papers During CinemaCon Presentation: ‘Traumatizing’
Wilde said the surprise delivery during a 2022 film panel led to years of therapy and left her feeling mortified.
- During the June 17, 2026, episode of the Call Her Daddy podcast, actress Olivia Wilde reflected on the "incredibly traumatizing" moment she was served custody papers while presenting Don't Worry Darling at CinemaCon in 2022.
- An envelope marked "personal and confidential" containing custody documents was handed to Wilde during her 2022 presentation, involving her two children with former partner Jason Sudeikis.
- Sudeikis later claimed he was unaware of the timing, which Wilde stated she chooses to believe for their co-parenting relationship. The pair settled their custody dispute in 2023, establishing a $27,500 monthly child support agreement.
- After forcing herself to finish the presentation, Wilde "completely dissolved" into tears backstage. Actor Tom Cruise later approached her to express sympathy regarding the incident.
- Therapy helped Wilde process the pain, leading her to describe herself as a "much better version" of the person she was three years ago. Surviving the ordeal gave her confidence to handle future challenges.
