Jason Sudeikis reckons his new daughter has the best role model possible in Olivia Wilde.
The couple welcomed their second child, Daisy, in October and also have a two-year-old son, Otis, together. But while Jason jokingly admits that there’s every chance his son may learn bad habits from him, he thinks his daughter will be fine.
The 41-year-old Horrible Bosses star told People magazine: “My joke, when we had Otis was, at least, having a boy, I have a better understanding of how I’m going to screw him up.
“But with a little girl, I mean, she couldn’t have a better role model in Olivia and my sisters and Olivia’s sisters and our mothers.”
Jason already calls himself a feminist, but said that becoming dad to a girl made him think more about the way women are treated.
He went on: “And then, me being at a point in my life where I’m smart enough to recognise that and to stay out of the way of anything, I think is a sign of masculine evolution on my part.
“And I’m going wave that flag freely and as high as I can hold it. But it doesn’t change anything yet because I am a feminist. Or as Maisie Williams, who I’ve worked with, would say, ‘I’m normal’. ”
Jason added: “I don’t think, it doesn’t make me any more decent because I had a daughter. I was lucky to get there ahead of her introduction to the world, and I hope to maintain that and stay on her good side for as long as I can.”
