Harry Styles and Olivia Wilde are hitting the brakes on their romance.


The “As It Was” singer, 28, and the Don’t Worry Darling director, 38, are “taking a break” from their relationship after nearly two years together, multiple sources confirm exclusively to PEOPLE.


“He’s still touring and is now going abroad. She is focusing on her kids and her work in L.A.,” says one source. “It’s a very amicable decision.”


Indeed, Wilde — along with her children, daughter Daisy, 6, and son Otis, 8 (she co-parents with ex-fiancé Jason Sudeikis) — were spotted dancing and singing along at Styles’ Nov. 15 concert in Los Angeles.


Styles, who is heading abroad for his Love on Tour shows, and Wilde were first linked in January 2021 after they were photographed holding hands while attending a friend’s wedding.


Last month, Wilde was also spotted by fans cheering on Styles from the crowd at his Harryween concert in Los Angeles on Oct. 31. In late September, the two were photographed kissing on the street in New York City.


“The public pressure on them has been difficult,” says the friend. “They’ve had ups and downs throughout the relationship.”


In September, 40 members of the crew and production team were moved to release a statement hitting back at the endless rumors.


“As a crew, we’ve avoided addressing the absurd gossip surrounding the movie we’re so proud of, but feel the need to correct the anonymous ‘sources’ quoted in a recent article,” said the team, adding that Wilde was “an incredible leader and director.”


The Booksmart director previously explained to Vanity Fair why she keeps details of her romance with Styles private: “I think once you crack open the window, you can’t then be mad when mosquitos come in.”


“I’ve never talked about my life away from work publicly and found that it’s benefited me positively,” he told the outlet. “There’s always going to be a version of a narrative, and I think I just decided I wasn’t going to spend the time trying to correct it or redirect it in some way.”


Though the actress and the Grammy-winning singer never confirmed their relationship, Wilde was often spotted in the crowd at Styles’ Love on Tour shows, and was photographed on multiple occasions sporting his merchandise on coffee runs, including a Love on Tour T-shirt.


The source insisted that the two are “still very close friends,” while another insider added, “Right now, they have different priorities that are keeping them apart.”


The split comes after the pair were plagued with drama in the lead-up to the release of their film, “Don’t Worry Darling,” over an alleged feud involving co-star Florence Pugh.


Rumors began circulating in July that the “Little Women” star, 26, had a falling out with director Wilde, 38, when she failed to promote the psychological thriller in any real way both publicly and on social media.


The speculation worsened when Pugh agreed to appear at only the Venice Film Festival for the movie’s premiere in September and opted out of other promotional appearances.


It’s unclear what exactly sparked the purported feud, but fans believe it had something to do with Shia LaBeouf’s departure from the film. (Styles took over for LaBeouf.)


While Wilde publicly maintained that she had fired LaBeouf, the “Honey Boy” star, 36, later explained that he actually quit. Further proving his point, a leaked video showed Wilde begging LaBeouf to stay on, meaning “Miss Flo” would receive a “wake-up call.”


Pugh’s glam team made it clear that they had seen the video by wearing customized “Miss Flo” T-shirts while preparing her for Venice.


All while Wilde was grappling the Pugh drama, the former “O.C.” star was also dealing with a very nasty split-turned-custody battle with ex-fiancé Jason Sudeikis. Most fans believed Wilde dumped the “Ted Lasso” star, 47, for Styles, 28, which she denied.


What do you think?


“The complete horses–t idea that I left Jason for Harry is completely inaccurate,” the “Booksmart” director, who shares children Otis, 8, and Daisy, 5, with Sudeikis, told Vanity Fair in her October 2022 cover story.


“Our relationship was over long before I met Harry,” she explained. “Like any relationship that ends, it doesn’t end overnight.”


Page Six broke the news that Styles and Wilde were dating in January 2021 when they stepped out holding hands at the wedding of the former One Direction singer’s manager.
