Isla Fisher Opens Up About Her Divorce

BBG News

In an open discussion, Isla Fisher has shared insights into her separation from Sacha Baron Cohen and the impact it’s had on her personal journey since their marriage ended.

In late 2023, the Australian actress, aged 49, parted ways with her husband, the creator of Borat, who is 53, following 13 years of matrimony.

The couple also share three children – Olive, 17, Elula, 14, and Montgomery, 10.

To Stellar, the actor from The Wedding Crashers, disclosed that having regained her singleness and observing her kids mature, she intends to redirect her energies towards her career once more.

Isla acknowledged that given the hurdles she’s faced over the past two years, she doesn’t anticipate significant changes ahead.

She mentioned that her professional life took a bit of a pause as she focused on raising her children with Sacha.

She went on to say that she’s now putting a greater emphasis on her professional growth, which had previously taken a back seat.

‘I always put motherhood first but everyone’s a lot older now.

It goes without saying that my children are my top priority, as all parents share this sentiment. However, I also cherish the opportunity to return to work and find significance in my contributions, particularly within the realm of the arts, which holds personal meaning for me.

As a lifestyle expert, I must share that I’ve been keeping quite busy lately! Recently, you might have seen me gracing the small screen on the supernatural Stan series “Wolf Like Me,” and making an appearance in the movies “Dog Man” and “Bridget Jones: Mad About The Boy.” It’s been a whirlwind of excitement!

Apart from what’s already known, she has five ongoing projects in post-production as per IMDb. Among these are the third edition of the magical-themed heist series “Now You See Me,” and “Spa Weekend,” a project Isla is currently working on at the Gold Coast.

Isla’s admission comes after she shared a hopeful message for the future amid her split from Sacha.

Earlier this month on Instagram Stories, the Australian actress shared a motivational saying which seems connected to her recent experiences.

‘Don’t be scared to start over, you might like your new story better’ the post read.

A month ago, there was a cordial interaction between the actress and her former partner on social media, despite rumors suggesting their divorce proceedings have become complicated.

Previously married individuals interacted with each other on the latest Instagram update from the Australian celebrity, featuring her posing sensually for Style Magazine.

Isla responded after some time, mentioning her former partner by tagging them and saying, ‘Thank you,’ with a flushed emoticon.

A cordial encounter took place despite speculations that the once harmonious divorce between her and comedian Sacha might become contentious, as they negotiate the division of their approximately AUD$119 million wealth.

According to insiders, the actor declared “it’s conflict” and indicated that any semblance of politeness has vanished following Isla’s revelation about their divorce proceedings.

In an April 2024 joint announcement, it was disclosed that Isla and Sacha had parted ways quietly the previous year.

After more than two decades of intense tennis play, they informed the spectators that it’s time for us to stop swinging our rackets.

In a conversation with The Sunday Times, Isla shared her thoughts on the separation, saying: “This has been the hardest experience I’ve encountered, but it taught me an immense amount about myself.

‘I never imagined my family being separated but we are committed and loving parents.’

Isla shared that her parents divorced when she was nine, and she currently aspires for a similar tranquil situation.

She mentioned that it was incredibly peaceful, as she could hardly recall any disagreements between them; instead, they always seemed to be considerate and supportive towards one another.

When asked if that was the ‘blueprint’ for her separation, Isla said: ‘That’s the dream.’

Isla was also asked whether she feels ready to dip her toe back into the dating pool any time soon.

‘That’s not on my to-do list. I’m not ready to think about any of that’ she admitted.
