Olivia Wilde indulged in a spot of quality time in Los Angeles with her younger brother Charlie Philip Cockburn, a 30-year-old photographer.
The 39-year-old actress and director uploaded an adorable photo to Insta Stories on Thursday of the two sitting à deux at a restaurant table.
“Brother… This is my brother,” Olivia proudly captioned a shot of the two beaming for the camera with their irresistible smiles.
Born to A-list journalists Andrew and Leslie Cockburn, Charlie and Olivia grew up together in the tony Washington DC neighborhood of Georgetown.
They come from a family full of prominent writers and journalists, which inspired Olivia to adopt the Oscar Wilde surname as a teenager.
In a nod to the circles she and Charlie grew up in, Olivia was looked after as a little girl by her parents’ tenant, Christopher Hitchens.
On the day of her Insta Story with her brother, Olivia could be spotted walking around the City of Angels in a signature stylish ensemble.
She highlighted her toned torso in a form-fitting cream sleeveless knit top and kicked up her legs in a pair of retro-chic flared jeans.
Olivia’s new leggy outing has come amid a cloud of speculation that her ex Harry Styles has gotten close to Candice Swanepoel.
The 29-year-old As It Was singer split from the 39-year-old director in March and has since been linked to a bevy of beautiful models and celebrities.
Now he’s apparently dating the Victoria’s Secret angel, 34, making it the seventh time he’s dated a model from the brand.
A source said The sun: “Harry is one of the biggest music superstars in the world, so it’s no surprise that supermodels are lining up to date him.
“He has a history with Victoria’s Secret models and has been linked to six others who have walked in their fashion show.
“Candice is one of the most successful Victoria’s Secret Angels and Harry would be a lucky man if he could woo her.”
MailOnline has contacted representatives for Harry and Candice for comment.
Harry and Candice originally met in Shanghai when he walked the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in 2017.
Other VS models Harry has apparently dated over the years, he was linked to Cara Delevingne in 2013.
He also briefly dated Kendall Jenner in 2014 for three months.
The following year, Harry was in a relationship with Nadine Leopold, but they broke up soon after, citing their conflicting work schedules as the reason.
It’s been a busy year for Harry’s love life as he also reportedly dated Angels Sarah Sampaio and New Zealand-born Georgia Fowler in 2015.
The sixth angel he dated was Camille Rowe, whom he dated since 2017 for about a year. Fans believed that he wrote several songs about her on his Fine Line album.
French-American Camille Rowe became his sixth date with an angel in 2017 and he waited six years before hooking up with number seven.
However, when she released the song Falling, fans speculated that the reason for their split was probably due to Harry cheating on her.
The lyrics read, “I’m in my bed and you’re gone.” And I have no one to blame but the drink and my wandering hands.
Meanwhile, Candice has been publicly single since her 2018 split from Herman Nicoli, with whom she shares her two children.
Harry’s dating habits have landed him in hot water in recent weeks, amid claims he is ‘avoiding’ this month’s Met Gala ‘like the bubonic plague’ to avoid the risk of ‘awkward encounters’ with his ex-girlfriends too Olivia Wilde and his recent relationship Emily Ratajkowski.
According to a friend of the pop sensation, Harry received an invitation to Anna Wintour’s prestigious event, but politely declined after learning that both Olivia and Emily, 31, were attending.
“Harry was invited to the Met Gala, but knowing they were both sure to attend, he avoided it like it was the bubonic plague,” an insider told DailyMail.com.
“He was told by his team that they would take whatever steps were necessary to ensure there was no awkward run-in with Olivia, but he wasn’t trying to take any chances at all.”
“Harry has no desire to have a face-to-face meeting with Olivia at this point,” adds the insider.
DailyMail.com has contacted Harry’s spokesperson for comment.
The Met Gala marked Olivia and Emily’s first date since the model was caught on camera enjoying a public kiss with Harry on the streets of Tokyo.
But while Emily and Harry’s incredible public display is said to have left Olivia feeling ‘betrayed’, neither woman showed any signs of strain last night as they were both seen attending the Met Gala – before heading to same after party at NYC hotspot Zero Connection.
However, Harry – who was in a relationship with Don’t Worry Darling director Olivia for two years until they split in November 2022 – was unwilling to take any chances when it came to potential clashes with the two women.
“Running into Olivia at an event with Emily would just be too intense,” adds the source.
And there is a reason. Four months after splitting from Olivia, Harry shocked the world when DailyMail.com published exclusive photos of him and Emily locking lips in a parking lot in Japan.
At the time, a source told DailyMail.com that Olivia felt “betrayed” by Emily’s relationship with her ex-partner, which came just weeks after the two ladies were seen mingling at Vanity Fair’s Oscars party.
“Olivia and Emily were friends and it’s a betrayal,” the insider shared.
Olivia and Emily had previously attended one of Harry’s concerts for his Love On Tour – dancing side-by-side at one point.
But if there’s any friction simmering between the two stars, they didn’t let it show on the red carpet on Monday night, where they both put on a dazzling display – even in the absence of the former One Direction star, who has previously proven to be one of the leading style stars of the glamorous soiree.
In fact, Harry’s fashion outfits have made him a mainstay of the industry – and in 2019, Vogue editor-in-chief Anna did him the ultimate honor by inviting him to co-chat at this year’s Met Gala, alongside Serena Williams, Alessandro Michele and Lady Gaga.
The title of co-chair was made all the more significant given that Harry had yet to attend the event – making his debut that year.
The following year, Harry became the first man to grace the solo cover of American Vogue. Since then, it has appeared in countless editions.
However, Harry was unable to celebrate his 2020 cover success at the Met Gala that year as it was canceled amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
Then, in 2021, the pop star was forced to decline Anna’s invitation again due to a scheduling conflict with his Love On Tour, which forced him to perform in Houston on the same night as the iconic event.
Anna made it clear that no offense was taken when she was seen attending one of Harry’s concerts at New York’s Madison Square Garden just a few months later – with images capturing the famously frosty editrix beaming with delight as she watched the performer on stage.
Fans had hoped Olivia and Harry might make their Met Gala debut as a couple at the 2022 event – only to be left disappointed when they failed to make an appearance on the red carpet, an absence they never mentioned publicly.
Harry left his fans wanting again last night when he failed to make an appearance at the gala – although he is currently enjoying a break from his world tour, which is due to resume on May 13 with a concert in Denmark.
Although Harry didn’t take part in last night’s ménage à trois with his latest lovers, they didn’t hold back when it came to their fashion choices.
Both ladies looked absolutely stunning as they walked the red carpet minutes apart for the Met Gala, which was themed in honor of the late fashion icon Karl Lagerfeld.
It’s unclear if they had any interaction at the actual event, but it seems unlikely that they didn’t see each other all night.
After the Met Gala, Olivia and Emily upped their fashion game and arrived within minutes of each other at the VIP afterparty at Zero Bond, where they partied the night away.
While the women had previously been on friendly terms, tensions between them escalated after Emily said Vogue Spain she “feels bad” for Olivia for hooking up with her ex-boyfriend.
The Met Gala 2023 returned to the Metropolitan Museum of Art with everyone from Kim Kardashian to Sidney Sweeney attending the annual fundraiser.
Since 1948, stars have been climbing the grand staircase at an extremely exclusive party where no selfies are allowed.
This year the theme of the ball was Karl Lagerfeld: Line of Beauty. The late German designer was Chanel’s longtime creative director. He died aged 85 in 2019.
