Olivia Wilde Family | Olivia Wilde Parents

She was born in New York City and grew up in the Georgetown neighborhood of Washington, D.C., while spending summers at Ardmore in County Waterford, Ireland.

She is the daughter of Andrew Cockburn (father) and Leslie Cockburn (mother). Both her parents were prominent in the Washington, D.C. social scene, hosting dinner parties. Her mother is an American-born 60 Minutes producer and journalist. Her father also a journalist, was born in London to a British family and raised in Ireland.

For a short time her family also had a house in Guilford, Vermont. Wilde has a sister five years older and a brother nine years younger.

Her uncles, Alexander and Patrick Cockburn, also worked as journalists and her aunt, Sarah Caudwell, was a writer. Her half-cousin, Stephanie Flanders, is a journalist and her paternal grandfather, Claud Cockburn, was a novelist and journalist. Writer Christopher Hitchens served as her babysitter.

Wilde’s ancestry includes German, English, Irish, Manx, and Scottish. She is also of 1/64th Sephardi Jewish descent through her ancestor, Ralph Bernal (1783–1854), a British Whig politician and actor.

Her paternal Scottish ancestors were upper-class and lived in several places at the height of the British Empire, including Peking (where her paternal grandfather was born), Mumbai, Kolkata, Cairo, and Tasmania. One of Wilde’s paternal great-great-grandfathers, Henry Arthur Blake, was Governor of Hong Kong.

Her other paternal ancestors include politician George Arbuthnot; abolitionist and Anglican minister James Ramsay; lawyer, judge, and literary figure Henry Cockburn, Lord Cockburn; Lord Provost of Edinburgh Sir William Arbuthnot; and Sir Thomas Osborne.

Through her father’s family Wilde is related to Sir George Cockburn, 10th Baronet, who was responsible for burning down Washington, DC in the War of 1812.

Olivia Wilde Husband

On June 7, 2003, when Wilde was 19 years old, she married Prince Tao Ruspoli, an Italian filmmaker and musician, and member of the aristocratic Ruspoli family that owns a famed palazzo in Italy. They couple were married in Washington, Virginia on a school bus with only a pair of witnesses. Wilde later said the marriage occurred in an abandoned school bus because it was the only place where they could be completely alone, as the marriage was a secret at the time.

On February 8, 2011, Wilde and Ruspoli announced that they were separating. She filed for divorce in Los Angeles County Superior Court on March 3, 2011, citing “irreconcilable differences”. The divorce was finalized on September 29, 2011. Wilde did not seek spousal support, and the pair reached a private agreement on property division.

Olivia Wilde House

Wilde joined the cast of the FOX medical-drama television series, House in September 2007. She played a role as Dr. Remy “Thirteen” Hadley, a secretive and bisexual young internist with Huntington’s disease, who was handpicked by House out of a number of applicants to join his medical team. Her first appearance was in the episode, “The Right Stuff.”

In August 2011, it was announced that Wilde would be leaving House to further pursue her film career; she left a few months later, in the episode “Charity Case.”

In May 2012, her character, Dr. Remy “Thirteen” Hadley, returned for the series finale of House for two episodes, “Holding On” and “Everybody Dies.”

Olivia Wilde Tron

In 2010, Wilde starred in Disney’s Tron: Legacy as Quorra, the trusted friend and protector of Kevin Flynn played by Jeff Bridges.

Olivia Wilde The Oc | Olivia Wilde Bisexual

Wilde became known for her recurring role as Alex Kelly on the teen-drama television series, The O.C. from 2004–2005. She plays a role of a bisexual, dating both Seth Cohen and Marissa Cooper in the second season of the series.

Olivia Wilde Vinyl

Wilde seemed to be okay with baring it all on the show Vinyl because quite honestly she didn’t have to really bare it ALL. The best part was that Wilde got to wear a merkin, which is a covering that is used to simulate pubic hair and thereby cover up a woman’s privates.

She stated that the merkin was kind of odd to wear and the hair was a bit difficult to get used to, but she did it for the show and for a chance at furthering her career, as is wise for any actor.

Olivia Wilde Vegan

Wilde considered herself a pescetarian in 2011, although she has also claimed to be both vegan and vegetarian at different times in her life. In 2010, she was voted PETA’s Sexiest Vegetarian Celebrity.

Olivia Wilde Activism

In 2008, Wilde campaigned with her then-current House castmate Kal Penn and actors Justin Long in support for the Democratic Presidential nominee Barack Obama. She was a supporter of the youth voter organization, 18 in ’08. Wilde serves on their advisory council and appeared in a public service announcement that debuted June 30, 2008 which encouraged youth to vote at the 2008 election.

Wilde appeared in the MoveOn.org mock-PSA “supporting” the rights of the healthcare insurance industry.

She was praised by the Coalition of Immokalee Workers, a farmworkers’ union, for supporting the Fair Foods campaign.

In 2013, Wilde appeared in a video clip for Gucci’s “Chime for Change” campaign that aims to raise awareness and funds of women’s issues in terms of education, health, and justice.

She is one of the Board of Directors at Artists for Peace and Justice, which provides education and health services in Haiti, and the American Civil Liberties Union of Southern California.

She is a celebrity influencer/activist for RYOT, a Los Angeles-based media company. On June 30, 2015, Wilde introduced Democratic Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton at a campaign event in New York City.

Wilde starred in a PSA released on March 21, 2016 for World Down Syndrome Day where she stars alongside 19-year-old AnnaRose from New Jersey who has Down Syndrome.

She is widely known as a feminist. Wilde participated in the 2017 Women’s March in Washington, D.C. and the 2018 Women’s March in Los Angeles, California. She is a supporter of Planned Parenthood and Time’s Up.

Her mother, Leslie, was the Democratic nominee for Virginia’s 5th congressional district in the 2018 U.S. midterm election. She lost to businessman Denver Riggleman.
