A "special" salad dressing mentioned in a report claiming to reveal details of Olivia Wilde's 2020 breakup with former fiancé Jason Sudeikis has caused rampant internet speculation.
An unnamed former nanny of the ex-couple claims to have witnessed Sudeikis become "infuriated" when Wilde left their home to bring Harry Styles, her then-future partner, a salad featuring the coveted dressing, according to reporting published Monday by The Daily Mail. A drunken Sudeikis allegedly laid in front of Wilde's car to prevent her from leaving during the tense argument that followed, according to the publication.
Wilde and Sudeikis denounced their former nanny's "false and scurrilous accusations" in a joint statement to the Mail, accusing her of going on a "now 18 month long campaign" of harassment. The former couple, who share two children, did not weigh in on the "special" dressing or any other specific details of the nanny's claims.

Some responded to the report on social media by speculating about the ingredients of the dressing. The article did not offer any clues on the dressing, with the nanny reportedly saying she did not know "what was in it," while Wilde had also not shared any dressing recipes to her social media accounts as of Monday evening.
"ok but i will not be able to rest until I know what is in Olivia Wilde's salad dressing," author and comedian Lane Moore tweeted.
"olivia wilde's silence on the recipe for her special salad dressing is deafening," tweeted Marlow Stern, senior entertainment editor for The Daily Beast.
"i just want to know what's in olivia wilde's special salad dressing," writer Margaret Abrams tweeted.
"I've heard from a reliable source that this is Olivia Wilde's special salad dressing recipe," actor Lenny Jacobson tweeted alongside a photo showing containers of ketchup and mayonnaise.
"What if Olivia Wilde's salad dressing is olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper," tweeted writer Tricia Gilbride.
"I couldn't care less about the Olivia Wilde/Harry Styles/Jason Sudeikis drama but if somebody doesn't give me an ingredient list for the adulterous 'special salad dressing,' I will simply die," writer and comedian Rachael Millanta tweeted.
"Trying to figure out if 'Olivia Wilde's special salad dressing' is a viable Halloween costume," tweeted Emily McCullar, a senior editor for Texas Monthly.
"gonna dress as olivia wilde with a bowl of salad and dressing for halloween," author Kosoko Jackson tweeted.
While Wilde has yet to confirm that the salad dressing specifically mentioned in the article exists, let alone divulge the potential ingredients, the Don't Worry Darling director has shared a least one dressing recipe that could fit the bill.
A recipe for "Roasted Salmon Salad with Zucchini and Potatoes" that Wilde provided to Food Network includes the ingredients and instructions for making a basic red wine vinaigrette salad dressing.
The ingredients are as follows, per Food Network:
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon honey
- Pinch kosher salt
- 1 clove garlic, finely chopped
- Olive oil, for emulsifying
To make the dressing, the red wine vinegar, mustard, honey, salt and garlic are combined in a small bowl. Between two and four tablespoons of olive oil are then slowly mixed in to emulsify and complete the dressing.
Newsweek reached out to Wilde's publicist for comment.
