I’ve been following Sacha Baron Cohen for years, and it was fascinating to hear about his divorce from Isla Fisher. Apparently, as they were finalizing things – a pretty hefty split involving around £120 million – he brought in some seriously tough PR people. They were known for being incredibly protective of their clients’ images, and it seemed like his priority was making sure this whole process didn’t tarnish his carefully built, ‘good guy’ reputation.
After over 20 years together, reports surfaced suggesting their split wasn’t as amicable as they initially claimed – despite a cheerful announcement with a photo of them playing tennis and mentioning they were stepping away from the sport. Sacha immediately assembled a professional team to help navigate the situation.
A few weeks later, he announced his separation from his wife, an Australian woman, claiming it was a friendly split. However, people close to the couple continued to say they were still together.
They stated the reason for their divorce was simply growing distant over their 14 years together and after raising three children, and he insisted on maintaining that explanation. They strongly denied any claims of a bitter conflict.
People who knew about the breakup said Sacha always tries to control how the story is told, and this situation was no different.
Sacha’s spokesperson confirmed that everything is resolved. Both Sacha and Isla now want to move forward and prioritize their family’s happiness.
It’s easy to see why the London-born celebrity is upset. Photos surfaced this week showing him having dinner with American model Hannah Palmer, who is 26 years younger, at the fancy Steak 48 restaurant in Beverly Hills.
Sacha, age 53, and 27-year-old social media personality Hannah were photographed leaving the popular venue, which is often visited by celebrities like Ben Affleck and Tom Holland.
Sacha and Hannah’s dinner date was kept very private. Hannah wore a leopard-print dress and high boots, and both left the restaurant by different doors before sharing a ride home in the same waiting Cadillac Escalade limousine.
It’s common for celebrities to avoid being seen together by leaving through separate exits, and given that Hannah is the first woman Sacha has been connected to since his breakup, it wasn’t surprising they did so.
It wasn’t long before Sacha’s team started working to minimize the importance of the meeting.
Shortly after photos of them appeared online on Friday afternoon, a friend of Sacha’s reached out to me to clarify that they are simply friends and not involved romantically.
It appears someone has been trying to force a connection where one doesn’t naturally exist. These two people have met a few times, share friends, and seem to get along. Sacha has also offered her some guidance about the entertainment industry and acting.
This wasn’t a date, just two people heading to the same event and grabbing dinner together beforehand. Once they arrived, they each did their own thing. Sacha has been single for nearly two years and is feeling healthier than ever.
He’s having fun getting to know people, both at work and in his personal life, but he’s taking his time adjusting to this new situation. That’s all there is to it.
If the reports are true, Sacha and Hannah have been communicating for several weeks. They were spotted sitting together at film director Taika Waititi’s 50th birthday party in Ibiza last month, and have continued to stay in touch since then. Taika Waititi is married to Rita Ora.
Reports vary on where they first met. Some say it was at the party, held at a rented villa on the island, while others believe they already knew each other before the event.
Pictures surfaced today showing the pair together at the glamorous event, which was also attended by celebrities like Kate Moss, Matt Damon, and Sebastian Stan.
Okay, so everyone who *really* knows Sacha is saying this whole dating situation after Isla is… just not him. Seriously, it’s so out of character, it’s like a different person. It’s just… not what he would have ever wanted for himself, apparently. It’s honestly a little heartbreaking to see.
According to one source, Sacha carefully cultivated an image of being reasonable and sophisticated. He would have been deeply upset if something like this had been revealed, as he would have considered it damaging to that image.
The fact that he and Hannah left the restaurant at different times really suggests they’re trying to hide something – that’s a classic move when you don’t want people to know you’re together.
If you have nothing to hide, why would you act that way? It’s really strange and confusing.
‘He obviously didn’t expect to be seen, or indeed have his photograph taken.’
Sacha and Isla met at a party in Sydney in 2001. Sacha later said he knew right away he was attracted to her because she was so funny.
The couple have three children: daughters aged 18 and 15, and a 10-year-old son. Last April, they surprised everyone by announcing their separation.
Last April, Isla announced that after more than 20 years together, she and her husband have decided to end their marriage. They filed for divorce in 2023 and have been handling the process privately.
Everyone in their friend group had known for over a year that they’d broken up, but their publicists kept denying it and successfully prevented the news from being reported.
News confirming the allegations surfaced only a few days after actress Rebel Wilson publicly accused Sacha Baron Cohen of sexual harassment during the filming of their 2016 movie, *Grimsby*. He strongly denied the claims, stating that substantial evidence proves they are untrue.
Wilson had to remove some parts of her autobiography where she claimed the Ali G actor had behaved inappropriately.
The divorce between Fisher and Cohen was finalized in June, reportedly on good terms, though details and accounts of the settlement still differ.
Their marriage had long been the subject of fascination, as they’d always seemed such an odd match.
Isla, who is currently 49 years old, was born in Scotland but grew up in Australia. She first became well-known for her role on the TV show *Home and Away*.
Sacha gained initial recognition in the 1990s playing Ali G, a now-famous comedic character who parodied a wannabe gangster and quickly became a star.
He became well-known for playing Borat, a journalist character from Kazakhstan, and also for his portrayal of Bruno, a flamboyant fashion enthusiast from Austria.
Hannah is an unusual pairing, but she’s definitely well-known, even though she’s not a traditional actress. She’s built a large following on social media, largely through sharing revealing photos. She currently has 2.2 million followers on Instagram and 575,000 on TikTok.
She frequently posts photos of herself in bikinis from glamorous trips to places like Hawaii, Mexico, and Saint-Tropez. She’s also friends with DJ and model Chantel Jeffries, and former reality star Vas J Morgan.
She also made money through OnlyFans, reportedly earning an impressive £4 million during her first year on the platform.
People close to Sacha have noticed he enjoys spending time with significantly younger, attractive women, and they’ve begun to speculate if this is the reason he recently made such a dramatic change to his physique.
He recently got into incredible shape, appearing on the cover of Men’s Fitness UK in July. He’s been preparing for his role as Mephisto, a devilish character from Marvel stories.
He credited a cocktail of Ozempic, private chefs and personal trainers for his new physique.
He playfully blamed a ‘mid-life crisis’ for his actions when he shared the photos on Instagram.
He was clearly joking, but it’s made some people who know both him and Isla question if that’s the reason he’s been secretly meeting with a younger, very attractive woman.
‘Hannah is very different to Isla,’ mused one insider. ‘It does make you wonder.’
