The star explained that she was talking about kids with Violet director Justine Bateman, who has two children herself; Olivia plays the title character in the movie.
‘Justin and I had a long conversation about this the other day, honestly, I’m just excited about meeting whoever it is, and brining a little person into this world.’
On the project Violet, Olivia could see a lot of her own struggles in the character, explaining: ‘I think we’ve all dealt with it but it’s really difficult when anything from the outside world starts to get into your subconscious and you start to make all these fear-based decisions,’ she told the outlet.
Adding that just like her character Violet, Olivia says ‘you present well, you appear well, but it’s tearing you up inside and in the process of pretending that things don’t bother you, you make these decisions to try to combat those things that aren’t true to who you are.’

Us Weekly’s source said earlier this week that Olivia and John’s relationship face much ‘uncertainty’ and they could just be good co-parents, and nothing more as ‘nobody knows yet if they’re going to do that together or apart.’
‘This has been an imperfect relationship from the start,’ the outlet’s insider said.
‘Even thought Olivia’s going to be a wonderful mother and has great support behind her, Olivia’s friends just don’t see these two being a couple in a year’s time,’ the source said.
Their romance was confirmed in May 2021, four months before John announced their baby news.
He had said to host Seth: ‘I packed a lot into this [year]. I went to rehab in September, I got out in October, I moved out in October, I moved out of my home from my ex-wife. Then in the spring I went to Los Angeles and met and started to date a wonderful woman named Olivia…. And we’re having a baby together. I was nervous when I was about to say the news! Olive and this baby have helped save me fromhuh myself in this early journey out of recovery.
Olivia and John’s relationship came just three days after his rep announced his divorce from wife of six years Anna Marie Tendler.
At the time, Anna Marie made a statement wishing him the best amid his recovery, adding that she is ‘heartbroken that John decided to end our marriage.’
He officially filed for divorce in July 2021.
In December 2020, John sought treatment at a 60 day rehab program for treatment for cocaine and alcohol addictions after he fell off the wagon during COVID after he had been sober since 2005.
