Owen Wilson Has A Daughter Who He Has Never Met
Owen Wilson has a daughter whom he has reportedly never met.
Owen Wilson is widely known for his roles in comedy classics like Wedding Crashers, Zoolander, and Marley & Me, often portraying warm, likable characters — and sometimes devoted fathers.
In his personal life, Wilson is indeed a father of three. However, one aspect of his family life continues to draw public attention: his reported lack of contact with his youngest child.
A father of three, but not an active presence in all their lives
Wilson, now in his mid-50s, shares two sons from previous relationships, and he is known to be actively involved in their upbringing.
Ford comes from a relationship with Wilson’s then-girlfriend Jade Duell; his second son, Finn, is with Caroline Lindqvist.
However, the same has not been reported regarding his daughter, Lyla, whom he shares with former partner Varunie Vongsvirates.
Lyla was born in 2018, making her around seven years old as of 2026. Reports since her birth have consistently claimed that Wilson has not met her in person.
While this detail has circulated for years, there has been no confirmed public update suggesting that the situation has changed.
Public reaction and ongoing interest
People have been left shocked after finding out about Wilson’s daughter.
One person pens: “Looks like her father, I would say it’s a shame how things turned out.”
“This innocent, beautiful child should be in his life and the life of his family,” another adds.
A third writes: “She is so cute. Owen is crazy not to see his daughter.”
Relationship with Varunie Vongsvirates
Wilson shares Lyla with his ex, Varunie Vongsvirates, whom he reportedly ‘dated for almost five years.’
Vongsvirates often posts photos of the little girl on Instagram, where many insist she is the mini-me of the Loki star.
Radar Online reports that Wilson changed his phone number after discovering Vongsvirates’ pregnancy.
“When Varunie told Owen she was pregnant, he was not happy about it, and that was the last time they ever spoke,” a source claims.
Claims about lack of contact
A Us Weekly source alleges Wilson ‘refuses to meet his daughter’ and he ‘checked the no visitation box in court.’
A representative of Wilson also told the outlet: “This is a private matter and it’s not appropriate to comment further.”
The actor’s paternity test revealed ‘the alleged father is not excluded as the biological father of the fetus,’ according to documents obtained by Us Weekly.
Financial support and legal obligations
In an interview with the Daily Mail, Vongsvirates claims her former lover has ‘never met’ his daughter.
“He helps financially but it’s never been about that,” she told the outlet.
Vongsvirates added that her daughter ‘needs a father in her life’ and that it’s ‘ironic’ Wilson keeps getting doting father roles.
According to reports, the Marry Me star generously fulfills his legal obligations towards his daughter. He reportedly pays $25,000 a month in child support for Lyla.
It’s believed he also paid a one-off payment of $75,000 to Vongsvirates, covering the cost of a night nurse, labor coach, and her legal fees.
A source tells Radar that Vongsvirates speaking out has ‘nothing’ to do with money.
“Varunie’s mother passed away when she was still kind of young and impressionable,” an insider says. “She knows what it’s like to grow up with one parent. She doesn’t want that to happen to her daughter.”
As of now, there have been no widely confirmed updates indicating that Wilson has met Lyla or changed his level of involvement.
While Owen Wilson maintains a relationship with his two sons, his reported lack of contact with his daughter Lyla remains a subject of public discussion.
The situation remains based on earlier reports and statements, with Wilson continuing to keep his private life out of the spotlight.
