Rebel Wilson Breaks Silence Following Sacha Baron Cohen and Isla Fisher Split
Just hours after Sacha Baron Cohen and Isla Fisher announced their split, Rebel Wilson has broken her silence on social media. The Ali G and Borat star, 52, and Isla, 48, are divorcing after nearly 14 years of marriage.
In a statement posted on their Instagram, the couple announced their decision to end their marriage, stating, “After a long tennis match lasting over 20 years, we are finally putting our racquets down. In 2023 we jointly filed to end our marriage. We have always prioritized our privacy and have been quietly working through this change. We forever share in our devotion and love for our children.”
Rebel Wilson, 44, took to her official Instagram account to promote an upcoming event where she will sit down for an ‘in person with’ conversation discussing her controversial new memoir, Rebel Rising. The Pitch Perfect star posted a link for fans to buy tickets to the live show, which will take place on Monday in Los Angeles.
In her memoir, Rebel writes about feeling sexually harassed by Sacha Baron Cohen during filming in South Africa in 2016. She claimed that Sacha had mentioned wanting her to go naked in a future scene, which she felt was not essential to the plot. Rebel also alleged that she was lured into a room with just a mattress on the floor and Sacha and his friends inside.
A representative for Sacha Baron Cohen denied Rebel’s claims, stating, “While we appreciate the importance of speaking out, these demonstrably false claims are directly contradicted by extensive detailed evidence, including contemporaneous documents, film footage, and eyewitness accounts from those present before, during, and after the production of The Brothers Grimsby.”
The news of Sacha Baron Cohen and Isla Fisher’s split, along with Rebel Wilson’s revelations, has sparked a wave of interest and speculation in the entertainment world. Fans are eagerly awaiting further updates on this developing story.
