Why is Sacha Baron Cohen in the headlines?
Sachin Baron Cohen and his wife, Isla Fisher, are getting a divorce! The couple revealed on Friday via Instagram story that they had filed for divorce in 2023, but they are sharing the news now. Their story featured a photo of both in tennis attire with the caption, “After more than twenty years of long tennis matches, we are finally putting down our rackets.
We filed for divorce in 2023.” This news comes at a time when Rebel Wilson recently called Cohen a ‘fool .’In her book ‘Rebel Rising,’ Wilson wrote that Cohen tried to stop her from writing about him in her book. Notably, the two appeared together in the film ‘The Brothers Grimsby.’
Rebel revealed in his book ‘Rebel Rising.’
Wilson wrote in her book, “Whenever I spoke to SBC (Sachin Baron Cohen), he would tell me I would be nude in some upcoming scene. I would say, ‘Ha ha, I don’t do nude scenes, Sachin.'” She further wrote that a production assistant told her that Cohen wanted to shoot another scene for the film, which he wrote and produced.
During the shoot, according to Wilson, Cohen allegedly pulled down his pants and said, ‘Alright, now I want you to stick your finger up my ass.’ I was shocked and said, ‘What?? No!!’ I was scared. I wanted to leave, so I finally compromised: I slapped him on his ass and delivered some lines in character.”
Cohen denied the allegations.
Cohen has denied these allegations through his representative to The Hollywood Reporter. The statement reads, “We understand the importance of speaking out, but these false allegations can be entirely disproven. We have extensive evidence, including documents from that time, footage from the film, and eyewitness testimonies from people present before, during, and after the film’s production.”
