Olivia Wilde Defends Her Decision To Date As A Single Mom

Being a single mom is hard enough without the judgment of the entire world. I can't imagine being a celebrity and being a mom and trying to date. It goes without saying that people love to let celebrities know how they feel on social media and now, single mom Olivia Wilde is here to remind you all moms are allowed to date and be amazing moms!

Last year, Olivia Wilde and her longtime partner Jason Sudeikis separated after nearly 10 years together.

The couple welcomed two children together: a son, Otis, 7, and a daughter, Daisy, 5.

Since the split, Olivia has been rumoured to be dating singer and actor Harry Styles.

However, the pair have yet to make things official as stories continue to fly.

In a new interview with Vogue Olivia talked about the importance of dating while being single.

"Parenting forces you to be honest about how you live your life. It puts in sharp, clear focus decisions you’re making," the 37-year-old told the publication.

"I think we owe it to children to be happy. They sense it. They’re so intuitive. The idea that you can trick your kids into thinking you’re happy is ludicrous.”

"You can go deep on Cold War influences on family structure, why we all think we need, you know, a two-parent household and a microwave," she said later in the interview.

"The work I’ve done personally in the last decade has been learning to have a voice and taking my voice seriously."

Good for you, Olivia!
