As alleged ex-employees of Olivia Wilde and Jason Sudeikis continue to speak to the press, one organization is standing up for the former couple. After their former nanny claimed that Wilde had rehomed the family dog, Gordon, to spend more time with Harry Styles at the beginning of their relationship, Los Angeles’ MaeDay Rescue pushed back on the call, calling Wilde \u201ca responsible pet,\u201d and giving an update on the pup.<\/p>\n

The \u201cWilde gave up her dog for Styles\u201d narrative was sparked last week, after the unidentified nanny’s interview with The Daily Mail<\/em> was published, kicking off another round of rumors and worldwide speculation about Wilde’s mysterious salad dressing recipe. In addition to her claims about the sanctity of this salad, the nanny also accused the dressing the Don’t Worry Darling<\/em> director of giving away her dog, Gordon, weeks after meeting Styles and starting production on her film. \u201cShe came for a visit and said, ‘We have to findGordon a new home,’ nonchalantly,\u201d the nanny told The Daily Mail<\/em>. \u201cJason doesn’t really care for animals and wanted him out of their home ASAP.\u201d She went on to claim that she was the one who arranged for Gordon to be rehomed with his New York City dog \u200b\u200bwalker (not to be confused with the LA dog walker, who supposedly wrote an anonymous Gawker post about their experience).<\/p>\n

Sudeikis and Wilde \u2014 who share Otis, 8, and Daisy, 6 \u2014 released a statement, calling the nanny’s claims \u201cfalse and scurrilous.\u201d They continued, \u201cHer now 18 month long campaign of harassing us, as well as loved ones, friends, and colleagues, has reached its unfortunate apex. We will continue to focus on raising and protecting our children with the hope that she will now choose to leave our family alone.\u201d<\/p>\n

Now, MaeDay Rescue is backing them up, revealing their side of the Gordon saga. Posting a few photos of the pup on Instagram, the official MaeDay account explained that Gordon was rescued in 2018 as a newborn puppy, and adopted by Wilde at 2 months old. (Wilde first confirmed the adoption in an Instagram post shared in December of 2018.) \u201cAfter giving him much love and training and travel adventures, she realized that Gordy didn’t love the travel life and wasn’t happy around toddlers,\u201d the caption read. \u201cGordy had formed a very strong bond with his dog walker and in Gordy’s best interest and after much consideration, he was rehomed to his Brooklyn dog walker.\u201d<\/p>\n
