However, Styles has clarified the speculation.
Who is the child’s voice in Harry Styles’ song, As It Was?
Styles confirmed that the voice is that of his goddaughter, Ruby Winston. While appearing on UK Radio Show “Capital Breakfast,” the singer confirmed that he had found the recording while making the song. “She used to try and call me before bedtime every night and one time it didn’t ring or something so they sent me that,” he explained. “I dug it out when we were in the studio and put it in front of the song for some reason and I kind of just fell in love with it so it stuck.” Styles joked that his goddaughter is already letting the fame go to her head. “She was asking for a big fee — it’s all gone downhill.”

Fans had speculated the voice was one of Olivia Wilde’s children.
Wilde and Styles have been dating for over a year after meeting on the set of “Don’t Worry Darling.” The couple is reported to be living primarily in Styles’ London home. Wilde’s children have also been spending plenty of time in the UK as their father, Jason Sudeikis, films his show “Ted Lasso” there. So, it’s safe to assume Styles spends plenty of time with Otis, 7, and Daisy, 5. But, despite fan speculation, the kids are not featured. — the real HEB (@hebbeans) April 1, 2022 Wilde and her children do appear to get a shoutout on the track, however, as Styles sings, “Leave America, two kids follow her,” likely in reference to his girlfriend.
Fans also compared the voice to Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds’ daughter, James.
James, like Ruby Winston, has already become a strong feature in pop music having appeared on Taylor Swift’s song, “Gorgeous.” Maybe Styles will also reference little Ruby throughout his album as Swift often does! — lae (@folklorepadfoot) March 31, 2022 RELATED: Did Harry Styles Break Up Olivia Wilde And Jason Sudeikis?
