In March 2023, theHousealum’s legal team claimed that Sudeikis was trying to “litigate her into debt” as they tried to determine whether Otis and Daisy should live in N.Y.C. or Los Angeles. A month later, Wilde’s legal team claimed that Sudeikis was “not paying child support.”

The custody case was eventually settled in September 2023, and theTed Lassostar was ordered to pay Wilde$27,000 a month in child support. They now share joint custody of Otis and Daisy — operating on a “week-on, week-off” schedule.

Sudeikis and Wildewelcomed their sonOtis Alexander on April 20, 2014. The first-time mom shared the happy news and her son’s name on Twitter several days after his birth. “Ladies and gentlemen, Otis Alexander Sudeikis has LEFT the building! (I’m the building),” she wrote alongside a sweet black-and-white photo of her and the newborn.

Wilde later revealed the inspiration behind her son’s moniker. “He was named after Otis Redding,” shetold PEOPLE. “I’ve just always been a huge fan.”

While it might be too soon to tell if either Otis or Daisy is interested in pursuing acting like their famous parents, Wilde has taken note of her son’s love for singing.

“[Otis] loves Moana, obviously, and when he thinks about Moana, he thinks of himself as Moana,” she toldPEOPLEfor 2018’sThe Beautiful Issue. “I love hearing him sing … it’s the best when you can watch them singing in the backseat of your car, and he’s just like, ‘I wish I could be the perfect daughter!’ And he’s just belting it out.”

The actress also revealed that Otis became a hugeBeyoncéfan afterdiscovering the artist’s musicon his mom’s iPad. The “Formation” singer even sent the toddler “a signed photo for his second birthday,” as Sudeikis shared during a2017 appearanceonWatch What Happens Live.

In 2020, Wilde gave a hint that her son’s musical interests had expanded beyond singing to include drumming! TheDon’t Worry Darlingdirector shared a short but sweet clip onInstagramof Otis hitting the drums. “It’s good to be Otis,” she captioned the post.

With Sudeikis staring inTed Lasso, it’s no surprise that Otis has become interested in soccer. During a March 16, 2023, appearance onLate Night withSeth Meyers, the actor said that his son is “really into soccer right now.”

He added, “He did this thing where he loves looking up their cards and videos, and he comes up with fun facts that he finds on YouTube.”

“I put it in his little room and that’s what got him walking,” Sudeikistold Jimmy Fallonin 2015. “He loves dunking basketballs.”

“It’s really traumatizing for me because you’re not supposed to take a 4-year-old on [the ride] — look at my face!” Wilde said of the photo, which features a scared-looking Otis and a shocked Sudeikis. “I’ve never been so scared in my life! That’s real mom fear!”

Daisy Josephine, 8

Afterconfirming her second pregnancyin April 2016, Wilde and Sudeikis welcomed daughterDaisy Josephineon Oct. 11, 2016.

The O.C.actress shared the first photo of her newborn daughter, who looked cozy on an oversized sheep mat, a few days later to Instagram, writing: “Daisy Josephine Sudeikis. Born, like a boss, on #internationaldayofthegirl.”

Daisy shares her initials with her father, whose full name is Daniel Jason Sudeikis. A few weeks after her birth, theHorrible Bossesstar spoke withJimmy Fallonabout how he and Wilde settled on their daughter’s name.

In 2018, Wilde said a then-18-month-old Daisy was a “total hambone” and would “do anything for a laugh.” The proud mom added: “She’s totally un-self-conscious and I find that so beautiful.”

“I don’t know,” Sudeikis said, “They have a lot of notes, but it’s mostly about structure and life: ‘Can we shave some time here, Jason? Dad?’ "

In conversation withBeanie Feldsteinfor anInStylecover story,the directorshared how she encourages both of her kids to embrace their unique personalities.

“Having a boy and a girl, you really notice gender politics within your own home,” Wildeexplainedin 2020. “She’ll clean up his plate for him after dinner and I’m like, ‘Put that back!’ "

“With Daisy, I have witnessed how women are born with an incredible amount of strength and that society quickly pushes them to assume the more feminine role,” she told theBooksmartstar when asked about how she’s raising her kids “to be strong and independent.”

“When Daisy hits a place where she questions her worth, I want to be the one to remind her of the strength she innately has,” Wilde shared.

In February 2023, Wilde got atattooin honor of her daughter. She shared a photo on her Instagram Story of what appeared to be the Libra constellation, Daisy’s zodiac sign, next to the Taurus constellation for her son, a design she got back in 2018. In the post, the director joked that she was “running out of arms” for ink.

According to Daisy, she has no interest in crushes (for now). In June 2024, the then-7-year-old penned a note that read: “I have a crush on nobody.I don’t need a boy.” Wilde then shared a photo of the note on Instagram and wrote, “That’s my girl 👊.”

Though Sudeikis coaches Daisy’s basketball team, he isn’t takingcues from hisTed Lassocharacter. Instead, he’s more like his former basketball coach Donnie Campbell, as he said during an appearance on theNew Heightspodcast in March 2025.
