The kiss between Olivia and Harry sparked rumors of a feud between her and Olivia that continued long after the film’s cameras stopped rolling.
It has also been cited as a possible reason for Olivia and Harry’s divorce after a two-year romance.
Sources close to Harry say Olivia knew about the kiss and his close friendship with Florence, and that it had always been “a problem” in the relationship – yet another factor behind their decision to finally call it a day. to make.
A source told The Mail on Sunday: ‘While news of the kiss only just came out, Olivia knew about it and it was dealt with, but none of that was easy. The three of them worked together and of course Florence was there afterwards to see Harry and Olivia get together.

The kiss is said to have long been a “troublesome issue” between the pair – even though Olivia and Harry blame his hectic tour schedule as the reason for their split.
The couple reportedly struggled for weeks over the decision to separate. Last Thursday, Olivia sat in the audience with her two young children to see Harry perform with his band in Los Angeles.
Publicly, the pair are stressing how Harry’s tour would have made it almost impossible for them to spend any time together until it ends in Italy next July.
Olivia wouldn’t be able to accompany him because she has to stay in Los Angeles with her eight-year-old son Otis and daughter Daisy, six, from her nine-year relationship with American movie star Jason Sudeikis.
It was also said that she and Harry had trouble agreeing on which side of the Atlantic to make their home. But there were suggestions that other factors were at play, including Styles’ close friendship with his co-star Pugh that culminated in that kiss.

It took place after they met on the set of the movie Don’t Worry Darling in March 2020.
‘Day in and day out the three of them were at work, the director and the two main characters. The two stars kiss, then one of them gets together with the boss. It’s the stuff of nightmares. Those things can put a lot of pressure on the relationship.’
Things got easier once filming concluded, but it was noted how Oxford-born Florence backed out of some scheduled interviews, skipping both the press conference and photocall to promote the film at the Venice Film Festival in September.
There was also a noticeable absence of mentions for the movie on her social media accounts. However, Olivia publicly denied any breakup with Florence, saying she had “nothing but respect” for her talent, calling her “fantastic.”
But whatever the truth, there was no public display of affection on the red carpet in Venice. Florence hugged her co-stars and posed for selfies with fans and for photographers — but showed no outward affection for Olivia and Harry.
In an awkward group shot as the cast arrived at the premiere at the Sala Grande, Florence chose to distance herself from the happy couple.
Then she skipped dinner and instead flew to Budapest, where she was filming her latest movie, Dune.
The news of Harry and Olivia’s split came as a surprise to the couple’s friends who, despite the ten-year age difference between the couple, expected them to stay together for the foreseeable future.
When the relationship started in 2020 during the shooting of Don’t Worry Darling, Olivia was still living with Sudeikis. She later insisted that her relationship with the American star was over long before she got together with Harry.

In keeping with how openly their romance was played out, the pair used American show business magazine People to break the news of their breakup – a tactic used by many A-listers eager to “control the story.”
Just days before Harry flies to South America for the next leg of his tour, a source told the publication that he and Olivia are “taking a break” as they have “different priorities that keep them apart.”
The insider added: “He is still touring and is now going abroad. She focuses on her children and her work in LA. It’s a very kind decision.
“They are still very good friends. Right now they have different priorities that keep them apart. The public pressure on them was difficult. They’ve had ups and downs throughout the relationship.”
Another source insisted there was “no bad blood” between Wilde and Styles, telling US gossip website Page Six: “Harry didn’t dump Olivia, or vice versa. This is the longest relationship Harry has ever had, so they clearly have a special bond.
‘They’re on a break. It’s impossible to be in a relationship when he’s on every continent next year and Olivia has her job and her kids. This is the right thing for both.’
