Olivia Wilde shares her 'new focus in life' following Harry Styles 'split'

Olivia Wilde says she now has just one focus in life following her shock split from Harry Styles.

The former couple called time on their relationship after two years of dating, with sources close to the pair blaming their busy schedules for keeping them apart.

38-year-old Olivia was reportedly 'disappointed' and 'very upset' following the split, but has been attempting to 'move on' from the ordeal.

She's now dived head first into multiple work projects, but has her sights set on one in particular.

The Don't Worry Darling director wants to make Jennifer Coolidge's dreams come true after the actress revealed she would love to "play a dolphin" in a film.

Olivia recently said she is determined to make it happen and has now taken to her Instagram Story to share more details.

Sharing a picture of an article detailing Jennifer's reaction to her willingness to take on the project, Olivia wrote: "Jennifer, it's happening.

"I'm on deadline for 3 different things and this is now my only focus in life."

The film director recently took to social media to share a cryptic message about loving people, leaving fans speculating about the meaning behind the post.

Olivia posted a picture from the film Tropical Malady, featuring the quote: "I'd hate to die without having loved."

One fan reposted the story and wrote: "Pause for OW w/ the breakup content."

Taking to Twitter, another person speculated: "@OliviaWilde still processing @Harry_Styles dumping her last year."

Another simply commented: "omg olivia wilde."

The posts come after Olivia was reportedly 'getting flirty' with Brad Pitt on the set of their latest film Babylon, in which they play separated husband and wife.

The pair are thought to have gotten on well while on set, with Olivia 'keen' to get to know Brad more.

"Olivia and Brad got on well during filming and things were a bit flirty at times, plus their chemistry has been a talking point as they promote the movie," an insider claimed.

"Olivia is a fan of Brad and he fits the bill perfectly as a rebound guy – if not something more.

"Brad’s playing it cool, but Olivia’s pretty keen. She’s dropping serious hints about getting to know one another better," the source told Heat.
