Actress and director Olivia Wilde was spotted canoodling with singer Ellie Goulding’s ex-husband, art dealer Caspar Jopling, after a lengthy three-hour dinner date. Wilde, 41, and Jopling, 33, were seen at London’s celebrity-attracting upscale pub, The Pelican, and reportedly “couldn’t keep their hands off each other,” an unnamed source told Page Six. Onlookers report that the two seemed happy, joking and laughing at dinner before they “kissed passionately in the street like a pair of teenagers,” before getting into a cab together. The Daily Beast has reached out to Wilde and Jopling’s representatives for comment. Wilde made headlines during her brief relationship with pop star Harry Styles, 31, from 2021 to 2022, whom she met while directing Don’t Worry Darling, in which Styles starred. Their relationship fueled vicious gossip, especially among Styles’ dedicated fanbase. Wilde shares two young children, ages 11 and 8, with her ex-partner, Ted Lasso actor Jason Sudeikis. Jopling is also co-parenting his four-year-old son with Goulding, who is dating actor Beau Minniear. In 2024, the “Love Me Like You Do” singer said on social media that she and Jopling remained “the closest of friends” and were “successfully co-parenting.”
