Fans have been asking since the stars of Don’t Worry Darling walked the red carpet at the Venice Film Festival on September 5. Is it true that Harry Styles and Olivia Wilde’s relationship has ended? Their lack of closeness in red carpet photos, as well as Harry’s apparent avoidance of her gaze, has led some to conclude that their relationship is ended, or at the very least, frosty.
Did Harry Styles and Olivia Wilde Break Up?

They supposedly refused to pose for photos together when photographers approached them. User @amitheonlyone n on Twitter claimed to have a video of Harry refusing to pose for photos next to Olivia after being requested by her team. According to Hollywood Life, a source close to Olivia explained that the couple didn’t sit next to one another during the screening because they are “trying to keep the spotlight on the movie.”
To avoid taking attention away from the film, they opted to avoid walking the red carpet together. Fans also think there’s something going on between Harry and Olivia because he seems to avoid making eye contact with her in images. Apparently, Harry and Olivia had broken up or had a huge argument, as one Twitter user said. They make a conscious effort to avoid making eye contact.
A third party said, “I think Harry and Olivia are going to split up in the near future.” Instagram celebrity gossip account @deuxmoi was asked to comment on the claimed split allegations and responded with the now-deleted story: “Ok so…” Based on the information I have, I do not believe they are finished, but the situation is tense as hell. They’ve been doing it for a while now, maybe a week.
This is the most recent controversy surrounding Olivia’s next directorial effort. It was rumored that Liv was having an affair with Harry while she was still engaged to Jason Sudeikis which sparked the original conflict between Don’t Worry Darling actor Florence Pugh and its director. On set. Some of the other actors, including Florence, reportedly felt uneasy about it.
Since Olivia was still with Jason when she initially hooked up with Harry, the source told Page Six, “Flo seeing Olivia and Harry all over each other on set did not go down well.” “Jason and the kids visited Olivia on set at the beginning a few times, so I think this all made folks feel a little uncomfortable,” one insider said.
It also seems that Liv and Flo have had disagreements about the film’s promotion. Whereas Olivia is pleased that her picture more realistically portrays female pleasure, Florence seems dismayed that the film has been largely praised for its sexual content. “Why isn’t there any good sex in film anymore?” she moaned, referring to the decline of sexual content in Hollywood films:
Olivia told the Associated Press in late August 2022, “When it comes to female pleasure, it’s something that we just don’t see very often unless you’re talking about gay movies.” When it’s reduced to your sex scenes, or to see the most famous man in the world go down on someone, that’s not why we do it,” Florence told Harper’s Bazaar in her September cover story.
“That’s not why I got into this field… This sort of discussion is inevitable when you hire the world’s most well-known pop star. There’s no use in talking about that since [this film is] so much more than that. And its creators are superior in every way.
The much anticipated theatrical debut of Don’t Worry, Darling will take place on September 23, with a subsequent HBO Max streaming release on November 7.
