For Jason, 50, being a dad goes beyond his personal life. In fact, fatherhood was the biggest driving force behind the character Ted Lasso in the eponymous Apple TV+ series.

"I don't think I ever could have portrayed a parent, me personally, effectively in a way that I would have believed until becoming one," he told Entertainment Tonight in March 2023. "I don't think I'm a good enough actor to do that kind of make-believe without having that kind of love that enters your life when you have kids."

But it was his co-parenting relationship with Olivia—whom he was in a relationship with from 2011 to 2020—that made it possible. Case in point? The exes were all smiles as they reunited in L.A. April 27, where they were seen sharing a friendly embrace.

But that's not to say their dynamic was always a slam dunk.

"Unfortunately, Jason and I had a very bumpy road, and we officially dissolved the relationship towards the beginning of the pandemic," Olivia, 42, explained to Vanity Fair in September 2022. "We were raising two kids during lockdown, so we co-parented through that time."

"Once it became clear that cohabitating was no longer beneficial for the children," she continued, "it became the responsible thing to not, because we could be better parents as friends who live in different houses."
