And you know what else?
She bagged a boyfriend from the film as well. One Harry Styles to be exact.
The couple met on the set of ‘DWD’ and sparks instantly flew.
In fact, they flew so much it reportedly caused tension with Wilde’s co-star, Florence Pugh.
The Blast recently reported on the supposed drama that went down on the set of ‘DWD’ after Styles and Wilde got together.
Harry & Olivia’s Love Affair Began On-Set & Reportedly Upset Co-Stars
A source told Page Six that Styles’ on-screen wife in ‘DWD,’ Pugh, was by no means happy with Wilde and the singer hooking up.
“I can tell you for a fact that Flo [Pugh] seeing Olivia and Harry all over each other on set did not go down well as Olivia was still with Jason when she first hooked up with Harry,” an insider told the outlet.
The “all over each other” claims are currently a hot topic of discussion, because another source from the set of the film is dishing what they saw go down between Haz and Wilde.

In a new report from Page Six, a ‘DWD’ set insider said, “Olivia was super professional — both she and Harry were. We were all surprised to hear that they were an item and didn’t even realize they were a couple until the news was out publicly,” said one set insider.”
Styles’ professionalism on set were echoed by Pugh.
She said he was “a total professional and it was a great experience working together.”
As for Wilde’s on set professionalism, another source said there was too much to focus on for there to be any canoodling between the couple.
“We were filming the movie at the height of COVID,” they explained. “Everyone had a job to do and we were focused on that. I certainly didn’t see Harry and Olivia all over each other!”
Wilde was still with her longtime partner, fiancé and baby daddy, Jason Sudeikis, at the time she got together with Styles.
One could say their relationship stemmed from a love affair.
It was reported that the “Ted Lasso” star visited his then-fiancée on the set of “DWD” with their two children, Otis and Daisy.
However, given the strict COVID-19 guidelines, that is said to be untrue.
The source said they did not see Sudeikis visit Wilde on set.

“The set was strictly closed to visitors since we were at the height of Covid lockdown,” they explained.
Styles and Wilde made their relationship “debut” at the singer’s agent’s wedding in January 2021.
The two have been photographed by paparazzi on Italian getaways, embracing on yachts and packing on the PDA.
They have yet to make their official red carpet debut, but it won’t be long until they’re put in that position.
