“Leave America, two children follow her.”
Well, there’s a line in the tune that seems to be a direct nod to Olivia Wilde. Of course, Harry and Olivia have been together for well over a year now — even if they’ve kept things exceptionally rock-bottom.

The lyrics in question come during the bridge of the song when Harry sings, “Leave America, two kids follow her.”

It’s worth noting that right after this section, bells start ringing… like wedding bells…
For one, Olivia has two children with her ex, Jason Sudeikis — Otis, 7, and Daisy, 5.

Also, she lives, in Olivia’s own words, “between LA and London” — so the whole “Leave America” line.

It’s worth noting that Jason Sudeikis also spends a lot of time in London, since that’s where Ted Lasso is filmed – Olivia, Jason and the kids all apparently hung out in London a few weeks ago.
There’s also the child’s voice at the beginning of the song, which might make you think, “Hey, is that one of Olivia’s kids?” However, according to Entertainment Weekly, the voice actually belongs to Harry’s 5-year-old goddaughter.

Her name is Ruby and she is the daughter of producer Ben Winston.
“As It Was” is the lead single from Harry’s forthcoming album Harry’s House, out May 20th.
