Isla Fisher's Post-Divorce Dig At Sacha Cohen
In April 2024, Isla announced they jointly filed to end their marriage the year prior. On June 13, Isla revealed their divorce was officially finalized. The two were reportedly embroiled in a $75 million court battle.
"Our divorce has now been finalised," they wrote via their Instagram Stories in June. "We are proud of all we've achieved together and, continuing our great respect for each other, we remain friends and committed to co-parenting our wonderful children. We ask for the media to continue to respect our children's privacy."
The actors, who met at a party in 2002, have been together for more than 20 years and were married for 13 of them. Isla and Sacha share three children together — two girls and one boy. Along with keeping their relationship fairly private, the former couple has done the same with the identity of their kids.
They haven't shared too much about the reason behind their divorce, but despite their decision to go their separate ways, the former couple said the split was amicable.
Now, just one month after their marriage was officially dissolved, the Now You See Me: Now You Don't star shared an interesting quote on her Instagram Story, regarding women and their lack of desire to get married nowadays.
She posted this earlier today:
While I can't find credible sources to justify the statistic listed in her post, there are studies (look here and here) that show growing numbers of women who prefer to delay marriage rather than those being against it in its entirety.
"It's not worth buying an entire pig, just to get a little sausage." Well, alright then!

Sacha Baron Cohen's ripped new look for Marvel role has fans doing a double take
Sacha Baron Cohen broke the internet with his new look. Cohen posed for Men's Fitness UK, debuting his toned body. The actor has been preparing for his role as Marvel's newest villain, Mephisto, in the miniseries "Ironheart." "I'm sorry, but thirst trap Borat was not on my 2025 bingo card," one user commented on the photo of Cohen showing off his fit physique, while another wrote, "Is this AI?" "This is not AI," Cohen answered on his Instagram stories. "I really am egotistical enough to do this." Cohen continued to make quips on his Instagram stories as he shared different photos from the shoot. "Some celebs use Ozempic, some use private chefs, others use personal trainers. I did all three," he wrote. "Debuting my new character: Middle aged man who replaced beer with protein shakes." According to Cohen, he spent 25 minutes a day with a personal trainer. "I now believe that just 20 to 30 minutes of movement a day can make a real difference," he told Men's Fitness UK. "And it's something anyone can fit into their routine, especially celebrities with personal assistants to do all the boring stuff like shopping and attending friends' funerals." He added, "In the past, I would've thought you needed hour-long sessions. But the short sessions made it so much easier to stay consistent – even with the demands of being on set." Cohen debuted his new look after he finalized his divorce from ex-wife Isla Fisher in June. The two announced their split in April 2024. "After a long tennis match lasting over twenty years, we are finally putting our racquets down," a joint statement shared by the couple at the time read. "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," they added. "We sincerely appreciate your respecting our family's wish for privacy." At the time, Cohen was dealing with bold accusations from his former co-star, Rebel Wilson. The actress accused Cohen of harassing her on the set of "The Brothers Grimsby." A representative for Cohen slammed Wilson's accusation as "demonstrably false." "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 representative told Fox News Digital.

Sacha Baron Cohen debuts ripped — and hairless — physique after Isla Fisher divorce: ‘This is not AI'
Very nice! Sacha Baron Cohen showed off his eye-popping physique in a cover shoot for Men's Fitness UK. In a sneak peek of the August issue shared on Instagram Wednesday, the actor — who plays the MCU's newest supervillain Mephisto — displayed his oiled-up abs while pumping iron. Other photos showed the ultra-ripped 'Borat' star doing pull-ups and posing in the gym after bulking up for his recently debuted role on Marvel's Disney+ series 'Ironheart.' In the caption, the magazine teased its interview with the 'king of comedy' about the jaw-dropping physical transformation. Cohen, 53, shared the post on his Instagram Stories, joking, 'This is not AI, I really am egotistical enough to do this.' In another slide, he boasted, 'Some celebs use Ozempic, some use private chefs, others use personal trainers. I did all three.' He also quipped that he was 'hard launching [his] mid-life crisis' before hilariously debuting his 'new character: Middle aged man who replaced beer with protein shakes.' The 'Dictator' star reportedly divulged in the cover story that he previously wasn't in prime physical condition. Cohen described himself prior to the transformation as 'having the core strength of an arthritic jellyfish,' according to a preview obtained by Deadline. In order to get into shape, the comedy icon reached out to Matthew McConaughey for a recommendation on a solid trainer. 'He looked like a ruler, straight up and down,' Alfonso 'The Angry Trainer' Moretti recalled to the outlet of making Cohen strip down to his underwear during their first Zoom meeting. Still, the trainer could see 'an athlete in hiding.' Moretti help Cohen transform his body with a low-sugar, high-fiber diet and an intense training regimen that included 100 daily push-ups. On his Instagram Stories, the 'Bruno' actor thanked Moretti for 'doing the unthinkable — putting up with [him] for 25 mins a day.' The father of three's dramatic fitness reveal comes weeks after he finalized his divorce from Isla Fisher in June following nearly 14 years of marriage. 'We are proud of all we've achieved together and, continuing our great respect for each other, we remain friends and committed to co-parenting our wonderful children,' the former couple said in a joint statement last month. 'We ask for the media to continue to respect our children's privacy.' Solve the daily Crossword

Sacha Baron Cohen Shocks Fans With Muscular Body Transformation to Play Marvel's Mephisto: ‘This Is Not AI… Hard Launching My Mid-Life Crisis'
Sacha Baron Cohen is shocking fans with his Men's Fitness U.K. cover story, which includes photos of the muscular body transformation he underwent before filming scenes as Mephisto in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The 'Borat' creator debuted as the infamous comic book villain in the Disney+ series 'Ironheart' earlier this summer. 'Some celebs use Ozempic and some use private chefs, others use personal trainers. I did all three,' Cohen quipped on his Instagram story while sharing the shirtless photos of himself. He also told fans: 'This is not AI. I really am egotistical enough to do this.' More from Variety Kevin Feige on Marvel Studios' Future, Focusing on Lower Budgets, Less TV and More Robert Downey Jr.: 'Look at "Superman," It's Clearly Not Superhero Fatigue' Marvel Plans to Recast the X-Men and (Eventually) Tony Stark After 'Avengers: Secret Wars,' But 'Reboot Is a Scary Word,' Says Kevin Feige John Malkovich's Red Ghost Cut From 'Fantastic Four'; Director Says 'It Was Heartbreaking Not to Include Him' (EXCLUSIVE) Cohen wrote in other posts: 'Debuting my new character: Middle-aged man who replaced beer with protein shakes… Hard launching my mid-life crisis.' Marvel fans originally expected Mephisto to pop up years ago in 'WandaVision,' and Baron Cohen was always at the top of fan-casting wishlists. 'Ironheart' producer and 'Black Panther' director Ryan Coogler told Variety last month that he was thrilled Marvel waited until 'Ironheart' to debut Baron Cohen's Mephisto. 'I just absolutely love that we're not meeting him in 'WandaVision' or 'Agatha [All Along].' You're meeting him through this stressed-out, young Black genius,' Coogler said. 'When you watch the show, it's like, 'Oh, that was how you always were gonna meet him.' It wasn't gonna be in 'Loki.' That's the trickster; that's how he works. That's where he's gonna be: in a pizza shop in Chicago, like, where you would absolutely never expect him.' Head writer Chinaka Hodge said the decision to introduce Baron Cohen's Mephisto was a 'collaborative' one, adding: 'I could tell the story about process, and you would know how benevolent Kevin Feige is. But I will say that it was a collaborative effort, where we all landed on Mephisto together, but there was one of us in the room who led us there, and I'm eternally grateful for him leading us that direction.' It's currently unknown when Baron Cohen will pop up again as Mephisto in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but he'll certainly be in great shape whenever that time comes.
