The Hollywood stars have also been thrust back into the spotlight amid their former nanny’s wrongful termination lawsuit.
Jason and Olivia claimed in new legal documents, per TMZ, that their former nanny, Ericka Gernaro, did not properly file her wrongful termination lawsuit in California as a civil lawsuit.
They further argue that the lawsuit should have been filed in New York State as a private arbitration. The former couple told TMZ in a statement published Thursday that “it is unfortunate that this private matter continues to play out in the press.”
“Our focus has been and will continue to be steadfast in protecting our family from harassment of any kind. We are confident that the evidence presented will confirm our position to dismiss this case summarily and bring peace to our family.”
Ericka, who had worked for the Hollywood stars from 2018 to 2021, claimed earlier this year in February that she was fired after asking for three days of medical leave due to the stress of work. However, both Jason and Olivia claim that she was not fired, but that she actually resigned.
The former couple say nanny Ericka Genaro doubled her salary in 2020 and she was “taken care of by the family.”
In one case, they say they paid for her and her dog to stay at the Rosewood Hotel in London, after she quit her job. The final bill came to over $22,000, thanks in part to room service for food and drink.
They further claim that travel expenses of approximately $17,000 for Ericka to move from London to the United States were also reimbursed.

They also allege that Genaro violated her employment contract by going to the media about the couple’s intimate issues and lying about her criminal record. They would say Genaro has described himself as “ruthless.”
The TMZ report says Sudeikis and his former fiancé claim Genaro only started having problems with her job when she demanded a tax-free raise.
Genaro previously told DailyMail.com how the Horrible Bosses star would text her about his concerns when Olivia Wilde started seeing Harry Styles more often, before taking Genaro on a trip to London.
But the former celebrity couple quickly hit back at Genaro’s claims, calling them “false and rude.”
They reiterated that claim in a statement to DailyMail.com about Genaro’s lawsuit, saying, “As parents, it is incredibly distressing to hear that a former nanny of our two young children would choose to make such false and egregious allegations in public. to express about us.’
The former nanny’s lawsuit also claims she was placed in the middle of Jason and Olivia’s breakup, alleging that Wilde “abruptly left the house and her two children” during the breakup.
“Wilde’s sudden absence from the home had a detrimental effect on his emotional state, including Sudeikis relying on Plaintiff’s presence,” the lawsuit alleges.
A source told DailyMail.com that Wilde didn’t actually move “suddenly,” but was filming between Los Angeles and Palm Springs while Sudeikis and their kids were in London.
Olivia and Jason have also been involved in a custody battle of their own, with the actress alleging in documents obtained last month in April by The blastthat the actor does not pay for child support.
She claimed that while Sudeikis helps with their children’s school fees, all other expenses are paid by her alone. Last month, she also pleaded for poverty in lawsuits.
Despite being worth $10 million, Olivia, who was presented with legal papers during the custody battle at last year’s 2022 CinemaCon, claimed the Ted Lasso star is extending the lawsuit to “put her into debt.”
