Isla Fisher has taken to Instagram to thank her fans for their support for the first time since splitting from Sacha Baron Cohen. The announcement regarding their separation was made on social media in April through a joint statement paired with a photo of them in tennis clothes. The statement shared that the couple had decided to end their marriage after more than 20 years. Fisher’s recent update on her Instagram story simply read, “Thank you for all your kindness and support” alongside a photograph of herself.
Cohen, on the other hand, has not mentioned the event since then. Instead, he has made headlines for his feud with Rebel Wilson, which was triggered by Wilson’s memoir Rebel Rising. Wilson has made accusations about Cohen’s behaviour throughout her career in the memoir, which were denied by Cohen and his legal team. When the book was released in the UK, the chapter titled “Sacha Baron Cohen and Other A**holes” had been edited, redacting the direct allegations made towards the comedian.
Cohen’s legal team has spoken out about the UK release, highlighting that printing falsehoods is illegal in the UK and Australia and that it is a legal principle that has been around for hundreds of years. They were glad that the book editors in the UK had decided to remove the falsehoods made against their client. Despite the feud with Wilson and the recent splitting of his marriage, Cohen has not given any updates on social media.
Fisher and Cohen’s joint statement had revealed their admiration and love for their children as they made their way through this difficult time. They also promised to keep their family’s wishes for privacy in mind and asked their fans to respect it. Fisher’s recent Instagram post carried the same sentiment as she thanked her fans for their support throughout the hard time she is going through
