‘And the one benefit is it has allowed some really deep conversations with my kids about emotions and about happiness and what family means and love, it actually allows me to get to know them in a different way,’ said Wilde while sitting on a sofa next to Kelly.
‘My priority is them, like, that is what it is, as long as they are healthy and happy – my ex and I agree on that, they are everything to us,’ said Olivia as she referred to Jason.
Wilde then shed light on how there are many non traditional families and being a single parent is not unusual.

So hard: ‘It’s tough, reshaping a family is tricky,’ said the Booksmart director. ‘And the one benefit is it has allowed some really deep conversations with my kids about emotions and about happiness and what family means and love, it actually allows me to get to know them in a different way,’ said Wilde while sitting on a sofa next to Kelly
She has been in a public split as well: Kelly said she came from a blended family and is in one now; she is divorcing her husband Brandon Blackstock with whom she has two children: River Rose, eight, and Remington Alexander, six
‘There are so many different families that are blended with different shapes,’ began Olivia before she was interrupted by 40-year-old Clarkson.
Kelly said she came from a blended family and is in one now; she is divorcing her husband Brandon Blackstock with whom she has two children: River Rose, eight, and Remington Alexander, six.
Kelly’s children are almost the exact same age as Olivia’s little ones.
Clarkson added it is ‘hard but do-able’ to be in a blended family.

Olivia then said she wants to surround the children with ‘so much love.’
That is when Olivia said it’s ‘tricky’ because she and Jason are ‘not splitting in private.’
Olivia and Jason split in 2020. When he served her with custody papers this spring when she was on stage at CinemaCon, the contentious nature of their custody battle became public news.
Later Olivia said that Jason meant to ’embarrass’ her by doing so, but he said he was unaware that she would be served on stage.
