Olivia Wilde & Jason Sudeikis are expecting their first baby, they’re ‘incredibly happy’

Olivia Wilde Jason Sudeikis

Olivia Wilde is pregnant with fiancé Jason Sudeikis’ baby! Kaiser sent me this story last night with a nudge-nudge about how all that Kenyan marathon sex must have done the trick. I still say Olivia was way off the mark with that analogy because Kenyan runners are known for … how do you say … fast finishes. Girl does have a wicked sense of humor though, she totally could have meant it that way.

People got the scoop but doesn’t say how far along Olivia is in her pregnancy. It must not be too far because she wasn’t showing at all a few weeks ago at the Her premiere. She’s probably just reached the second trimester, which is the time a lot of women feel comfortable making an announcement. Will she and Jason get hitched before the baby is born, or will they still have a long engagement? Who knows, but suddenly it’s like Olivia’s professed fried PB&J cravings make total sense. This is the first child for Olivia and Jason *cough* as well:

And baby makes three!

Olivia Wilde, 29, and Jason Sudeikis, 38, are expecting their first child together, PEOPLE has learned exclusively.

“They are incredibly happy,” says a source close to both. “They’re very excited to welcome a new member into their family.”

Reps for the couple confirm to PEOPLE that Wilde is pregnant with their first child.

The two first met on the season finale of Saturday Night Live in 2011 and began dating six months later. They got engaged in January.

Earlier this year, Wilde said she was excited to start a family with Sudeikis in the future. “He’s so good with kids,” she told Marie Claire. “I’m open-minded about how many, but three is like a little party.:

[From People]

Of course this is very exciting news for Jason and Olivia, but I wonder how it will impact her career trajectory. Will she still be comfortable as “the sexy chick” in all of her movies? I think she’ll work it out. Maybe her new role as mother will soften her up a bit in the eyes of others. A lot of people don’t like her, but I’ve been progressively warming up to her with her recent offbeat interviews. I do hope the baby looks like Olivia. That sounds like a really bitchy thing for me to say, right? It’s not that Jason is unattractive at all, but Olivia is just gorgeous.

    Ugh I just don’t get his appeal. He looks like a half douche dork.

  2. Talie says:

    Doesn’t he have a child? I kid…

  3. Erinn says:

    I like them. They seem to be a genuinely happy couple, and he seems like he’d be a fantastic dad. He’s not afraid to be goofy.

    • GlimmerBunny says:

      I like them too! He’s funny and she’s one of my girl-crushes. I wish her a healthy and happy pregnancy and a good family life đŸ™‚

  4. blue marie says:

    good for them, but she’s still annoying

    • Becky1 says:

      Yes-she’s gorgeous but annoying. I can see her working this pregnancy for as much publicity as possible. Once she has the baby she’ll be doing interviews about how unselfish she is now that she’s a Mom, how motherhood is fantastic, etc. while nannies take care of the child.

      Sorry to be so cynical.

  5. ANDREA1 says:

    This is how its meant to be done congrats to both of them.. When you’re ready you make it happen then announce it when you are ready. Not fuelling pregnancy by wearing baggy clothes and then denying it hard when tabloids report it! Side eye to you know who!

  6. T.fanty says:

    Good for them. I see a mediocre career of hawking (sorry, “curating”) budget lifestyle crap in her future.

  7. JB says:

    Congrats to the happy couple.

  8. Rhea says:

    Not a fan of them but congrats, anyway….

  9. Annie says:

    Well. She did put on her new website she decided to stop making bad movies. Fingers crossed.

    I still can’t believe someone let JSuds knock them up. Her fam has strong genes thank god.

  10. j.eyre says:

    I do like her sense of humor. Congrats to them. I hope it’s what they wanted.

  11. klue says:

    Chicka has no ass

  12. Barrett says:

    He is my number 1 pick for as Xander’s baby daddy. Why? If you look at January jones son he has those big odd shaped ears that Jason has and those brown eyes shape and all. Oh I hope Olivia and Jason’s child does not get those ears!!!

  13. Anon says:

    I’m out of the loop, what did the “first kid for both of them *cough*” mean?

  14. jaye says:

    I think he’s very cute. Like, regular guy cute. He’s like the math teacher in HS that you and your girlfriends thought was cute.

  15. Greyson says:

    They’re such a smug couple.. I guess they’re perfectly matched.

    I profoundly dislike the way she trashed her ex-husband in interviews. She has zero class.

    • John says:

      I completely agree. I don’t think she’s talented or funny, she’s try-hard, but maybe pregnancy well have her taking better care of herself and her bulimic Bethenny jaw will recede.

  16. Elodie says:

    I watched Cowboys vs Aliens yesterday and boy was the movie boring, her character was a mess, Harrison Ford was the only one watchable so far, Craig made his character very Bond-esque somehow… Anyway.

    Congrats to them both!

  17. lucy2 says:

    Congrats to them!
    My only negative thought is that she already gets way more media coverage than her career calls for, so now we’ll probably be bombarded with even more. I don’t dislike either of them, but don’t find them THAT interesting (except for the theory about January Jones).

  18. Sunny says:

    little brother/ sister for Xander?

  19. Kim1 says:

    Cool their baby can have playdates with their buddies JustJen’s baby.

  20. Paloma says:

    So they’re going the full bore engaged/child route with no marriage in sight. How incredibly dull in the land of Hollywood.

  21. Jenna says:

    Congrats and all, but the first thing that came to my mind was: “There’s no way in hell I’m supposed to believe that woman is only six years older than me”. 29?! Really?! o_O

  22. Suzy from Ontario says:

    I like them as a couple and they both seem genuinely crazy about each other. I didn’t get his appeal until I saw him in We’re the Millers. He’s funny and cute and quirky. I think it’s a good fit for her. Congrats to them both!

  23. Algernon says:

    I can’t believe people still let Matthew Vaughn off the hook in favor of this guy. Look at the fallout on X-Men. How does that not equate to seriously shady for anyone else? January Jones is one of the only people not invited to be in the mega-cast of the sequel, and Matthew Vaughn left citing “scheduling conflicts” but he never worked on anything. They both got axed from a franchise that actually has an incredibly high retention rate, both in front of and behind the camera.

    Also, Jason Sudeikis may look like “half a douche” as Jade said up top, but I admire his ability to not throw Jones under the bus. He could have given some poor-sap interview about how Jones cheated on him and had someone else’s kid, but he hasn’t leveraged that for sympathy at all. Instead he eats the sh-t of everyone thinking he abandoned his kid, to spare his ex the embarrassment, I guess. That takes some character.

    • LesBitches says:

      +1 on everything you said!

      I think it was Matthew Vaughn too, so much shadiness around him & her.

    • Miss Melissa says:

      I have always thought it was Matthew Vaughn, and that was why she and Sudekis were dunzo.

    • rebecca says:

      Going by your logic Rose Byrne must have had an affair with Vaughn as well, since she wasn’t invited back either. And he wasn’t axed from the film, he’s still a producer. He chose not to direct this one.

      It’s disturbing that people are so obsessed with slut shaming January Jones all because she had a baby on her own.

  24. Bodhi says:

    Well congrats to them!

    I very seriously doubt that he is the father of January’s son. Fathering a child outside of marriage just isn’t a big deal these days. The only reason it WOULD be a big deal is if the father was already in a supposedly stable relationship.

  25. Mitch Buchanan Rocks! says:

    She looks a bit like Keira Knightley

  26. Nicole says:

    This press release makes me think he is the father of January’s kid even more. If this was his first kid, they say the standard “this is the first child for both of them”. Instead they say “this is their first baby TOGETHER.”

  27. Virgilia Coriolanus says:

    They both irritate me.

    Olivia, because of all that crap that she’s said about her ex.

    Jason, because he seems like one of those guys who think that you’re so lucky to be dating–anyone remember his response to the rumors that Jennifer Aniston and he were dating? He said something like, “she would be so lucky”–he sounds like a pompous douche who thinks he’s way hotter than he actually is.

    • lucy2 says:

      Pretty sure that was said in a joking manner. They’re friends.

    • Violet says:

      @Virgilia Coriolanus

      Yeah, the way she keeps throwing her ex under the bus really gets on my last nerve. I saw this baby announcement elsewhere and, once again, Olivia had to get another dig in by saying something along the lines of Jason being the first person she’d ever considered having a baby with. What a c*nt.

      @lucy2

      With friends like that, who needs enemies? In all seriousness, true friends don’t routinely trash you, especially in public.

      • jaye says:

        @lucy2

        I disagree. He wasn’t trashing her, he was teasing. Friends do that with each other all the time.

  28. Mel says:

    Agreed Algernon, Xander looks much more like Matthew than Jason, look at his kids with Claudia too.

  29. Bronwyn says:

    woo- hoo! i love both of them so much. And she is my celeb-girl crush and he my ULTIMATE celeb guy crush….I just don’t know what it is, but hey.

  30. Ashley says:

    They are both irritating. I’m not ready for months and months of them “gushing” about the baby, this is gonna suck

  31. Holden says:

    I think they are a cute couple and wish them the best.

  32. nathalie says:

    I do not like her. She always trashes her ex-husband and he says nothing about her . Immature and unprofessional. Jason Sudkis is average looking and a boring actor. I don’t get why she was always acting like this guy is a Brad Pitt- Johnny Depp-Tom Cruise-Daniel Day Lewis hybrid or something.

  33. Jay says:

    Some day, someone will explain to me exactly why people think Olivia Wilde is gorgeous. Until then, I guess I’ll just continue to not get her appeal at all.

  34. Dommy Dearest says:

    Wow, that must be a slap in the face for January Jones. At least his first kid will now have a playmate.

    Also: fried pb&j are bomb, preggo or not.

  35. ELJ says:

    Anyone else think this is a career move on her part? She wasted all her buzz on a bunch of crap movies and now all her publicity comes from her relationship, although that hasn’t led to any actual jobs as far as I know- this seems like a good way to propel that to the next level and try to make it work for her before people are over that too.

  36. Bridget says:

    I really don’t think Sudekis was the father of January’s baby. It was Vaughn all the way. Does no one remember how weird he was in all the XMen promotion? How he basically bailed on everything when her pregnancy came out? And how neither are in the next movie? Though it’s gotta chap January’s hide that these 2 are pregnant since part of why she and Sudekis broke up was because she was ”on the baby train” and he wasn’t. Or its also possible that he realized how awful he was.

    • Sabrine says:

      Xander looks a lot like Jason Sudeikis. That is why people say he is the father. He looks nothing like Vaughn. Whoever the father is, he is a loser. Jones said she wanted to raise the baby alone and the father should have said, no way, that’s my child too, and gotten visitation so the boy could know his father. It’s going to come out eventually.

      • Bridget says:

        Not really, he looks like most kids look. Plus there’s not exactly a huge difference between the way Sudekis and Vaughn look. Sudekis is just considered an option since he was the official boyfriend before January got pregnant, and she hasn’t exactly gone public with a ton of guys. You know, since she tends to prefer them attached.

  37. Fan says:

    It looks like she is going to have a baby boy. I wonder…………Xander.

  38. Hello says:

    I actually love Olivia Wilde…I don’t understand why people dislike her? Congratulations to both!

  39. jc126 says:

    As much as January Jones’ kid looks like Jason S., I just believe that he would NOT hide that he was the father. He does not seem like that kind of jerk – and why would she not name him, either?

  40. Asdfg says:

    Congrats to them!

  41. Pumpkin Pie says:

    I don’t think he is Xander’s father, probably that director is. Women who sleep with married men – other than their husbands, there is a name for them. Poor kid.
