Olivia and Jason’s former nanny had told the Daily Mail in comments posted Oct. 18 that in November 2020, the month Olivia and Jason announced their breakup, the actress arranged for her dog to live with her New York-based dog walker. The nanny said this occurred weeks after Olivia met her now-boyfriend Harry Styles, who stars in Don’t Worry Darling.
The nanny also said she told Jason that she “knew somebody who loves” the dog and “was willing to take him in.”
Olivia and Jason have put up a rare united front while speaking out against multiple accusations made about them by the nanny, who claimed to the Daily Mail she was fired without severance pay and also claimed the actor once became upset that his ex allegedly made her “special salad dressing” for Harry.
The former couple told E! News in a joint statement last week, “As parents, it is incredibly upsetting to learn that a former nanny of our two young children would choose to make such false and scurrilous accusations about us publicly.”
Olivia and Jason also accused the nanny of launching a “campaign of harassing us, as well as loved ones, close friends and colleagues” and said they planned to “continue to focus on raising and protecting our children with the sincere hope that she will now choose to leave our family alone.”
In addition, Olivia later posted on her Instagram Stories an excerpt from Nora Ephron‘s 1983 novel, Heartburn, which included the description of a character making homemade salad dressing.
