Olivia Wilde is touching upon the time she knew her relationship with fiancé Jason Sudeikis was over.

The 42-year-old reveals her birthday in 2020 was the final nail in the coffin.

Speaking on Wednesday’s episode of Alex Cooper’s “Call Her Daddy” podcast, Wilde said: “Jason and I had been having a rough time for a while. We had a real bumpy ride”

“He said, ‘What would I get you, Olivia? I don’t know you,'” Wilde remembered.

“You can get to a place in a relationship where you stop engaging in the knowing of each other and the curiosity of each other, and you find yourself in a place where you’re like, ‘I don’t even know you,'” Wilde explained.

“It was f–king tough,” she admitted. “It brought us to the place of, ‘OK, this is done, we’re gonna end this.'”

Wilde shares two children, son Otis, now 12, and daughter Daisy, now 9, with Sudeikis.
