Sacha Baron Cohen and Isla Fisher are officially ending their 13-year marriage, as announced by the couple themselves
The decision to divorce comes amidst public attention on Cohen, 52, due to allegations made by fellow actor and former co-star Rebel Wilson regarding his behavior on set.
In separate statements shared on their Instagram Stories on Friday, April 5, Cohen and Fisher disclosed that they filed for divorce jointly last year, expressing gratitude for privacy during this transition and emphasizing their enduring love and commitment to their children.
Fisher, 48, and Baron Cohen wed on March 15, 2010, and are parents to three children. They met in 2001 in Sydney, Australia, well before their rise to fame through successful films like Baron Cohen’s “Borat” in 2006 and Fisher’s “Wedding Crashers” in 2005.
Wilson’s accusations against Cohen, outlined in her recent memoir “Rebel Rising,” have added a layer of controversy to the situation. Wilson claims that Cohen pressured her into performing nude scenes and made inappropriate requests during filming, allegations that Cohen’s team vehemently denies, citing evidence and eyewitness accounts contradicting Wilson’s claims.
The public awaits further developments as the divorce proceedings unfold and as Wilson’s memoir continues to generate discussion within the industry.
