The former dog walker of Olivia Wilde and Jason Sudeikis now talks about what she noticed in the weeks before the famous couple called it quits.
In a hilarious essay published Thursday on gawkerthe anonymous dog walker describes how her walks with Gordon Sudeikis-Wilde suddenly stopped as the couple’s marital troubles unfolded behind the scenes.
She described how heartbroken she was when she realized that the “happiest mornings during the depressing era of Covid” had come to an end.
The woman writes that she was first hired to walk a dog named Gordon in the fall of 2020, expecting a sitter to bring the dog to her – but was surprised when confronted instead with the 47-year-old Ted Lasso star.
“Gordon wasn’t just any Gordon—he was Gordon Sudeikis-Wilde,” the dog walker wrote, pointing out that “she’s often come across men like Jason Sudeikis.
“I like to call them ‘Nice Guy Tie Dye’ guys,” she explained. “The origins of the style’s counterculture have long faded, and now they’re announcing the arrival of a man who may have never seen the end of a gravity bong.”
The hiker then writes that she was immediately struck by a star.
“I had never heard Jason Sudeikis speak before, but the excitement of celebrities immediately impressed me. The potential for sudden confirmation, the pain of being remembered, of being liked, seen through the eyes of a vaguely beloved man, overwhelmed me.
“I was suddenly ready to kill for him.”
But the dog walker never got the confirmation she was looking for from Sudeikis, because he kept the door locked on her while he was “stuck in big Hollywood gatherings.”

Instead, the dog walker writes, she bonded with Gordon, who she described as a “dumb, dumb golden retriever” who “weared a harness that barely contained his burly, bumbling shape.
“He started fighting with other dogs, so I prepared for the worst,” wrote the walker, explaining: “I’d walked dogs that bullied me, threatened me, slandered me… But Gordon wasn’t like that.
“He was generally an angel,” she said. “It bounced with the energy of a big dog, but the dashing spirit of a puppy.
“He was well behaved and walked well, kept up with me but never pulled, dragged or faltered,” she added, saying: “He trotted happily next to me when I was tired and went jogging when I wanted to keep fit. .
“He was good…almost too good,” she wrote. “We were connected.”
The dog walker began walking Gordon every other day for months, describing them as “my happiest mornings during COVID’s most depressing drawn-out flop territory” before getting a text saying, “No more Gordon walks.
“My structured, healthy mornings with Gordon were over with immediate effect,” she wrote. “My fleshy companion was gone. I would no longer share in his sweet, distant presence of gloomy pandemic mornings.’
Gordon was reportedly ‘rehoused’ when Wilde, 38, began spending more time with Harry Styles, 28, that fall. The two are pictured here Thursday, standing at a distance

The walker was never told why the walks had to end, but recently learned that Gordon had reportedly been relocated as Wilde, 38, began spending more and more time with Harry Styles, 28.
She felt that Gordon was “at best an afterthought” for Sudeikis.
The walker concluded her essay by saying that she now understands “why celebrities can immobilize us.
“Becoming a confidante of a god, however fleeting, is one of the most ancient gifts this life can bestow upon us.
“To serve Jason Sudeikis, to placate him, to comfort him, what an unparalleled feat,” she wrote, adding: “It was all Gordon ever wanted.”
The dog walker’s essay comes just days after the famous couple’s former nanny described how their very public split took place behind the scenes.
Although the actress insisted her relationship was “long before” she ever met the pop star, Wilde was pictured with the diamond and emerald stone on her left ring finger while frolicking with Sudeikis in the Malibu ocean on September 8, 2020
The former House actress has maintained that her relationship with Sudeikis was “long ago” before meeting Harry Styles on the set of her film, Don’t Worry Darling.
But she was seen showing off her vintage engagement ring while frolicking with her then-husband in the Malibu ocean on September 8, 2020.
In October, just weeks after that outing, Wilde would start working closely with Styles as the shooting for her film began.
She began to spend more time outdoors citing her job and eventually moved to the nearby $1,650-a-night Paramour Estate Hotel in LA in early November 2020.
A former nanny for Wilde and Sudeikis’ two children, Otis and Daisy, said the Booksmart director told her unwitting fiancé that the move was due to a COVID outbreak on set.
Days later, on November 8, she is said to have dumped Sudeikis while visiting the house they had previously shared.

The actress and film director has insisted she and Sudeikis split in early 2020, telling Vanity Fair last month, “Our relationship was over long before I met Harry.”
She went so far as to say it was a “horse**t” idea that she “left Jason for Harry” and indicated that the couple were trying to co-parent for as long as possible during the pandemic to keep things going. easier to make their children.
But the nanny, who took care of Otis (8) and Daisy (6) for three years, said her September 2020 beach trip with the couple and their children proves this isn’t the case.
Look at her ring on Labor Day Weekend (2020). We were in Malibu on Labor Day Weekend,” she told DailyMail.com.
“This was just before she started seeing Harry. She’s wearing her engagement ring from Jason and smiling while at the beach.”
Sudeikis proposed to Wilde in 2013 after three years with a diamond ring surrounded by a halo of emeralds.
At the time, she said, “All they know is that it passed through Paris around 1921. I love imagining the story of this ring. Who had it? It’s a bit of an aqua emerald, not a deep dark green. Jason said it reminded him of my eyes, which is very sweet.’
Wilde also reportedly discussed her wedding plans with Sudeikis in October 2020, the former nanny added, just a month before she left and long after she claimed the marriage had already deteriorated.
The nanny said she had made plans to have Daisy act as a flower girl at the ceremony.

But that all changed after Wilde met Styles and quickly fell in love with the singer, with the nanny claiming she even appeared visibly “dizzy” and giggling around him when she took Daisy to visit her on set.
“Olivia defended herself and I think she did it for Harry because she wanted Harry to think everything was over for a long time – and it wasn’t,” said the nanny.
The nanny claimed that the relationship between Wilde and Sudeikis was complicated even after she left the family home and officially called things off, with Wilde making her relationship with Styles public just five days later.
The two confirmed their romance on January 6 after they were caught walking hand in hand at Jeffrey Azoff’s wedding in Montecito, California.
Earlier this week, Wilde and Sudeikis accused their nanny of conducting an “18-month campaign of harassment” against them after their former employee made a series of allegations disapproving of the nanny’s nanny “false and abusive.”
