The private lives of two of Hollywood’s most recognizable stars, Sacha Baron Cohen and Isla Fisher, are making more headlines than ever as their once low-key divorce threatens to spiral into a public feud. What began as a quiet split has recently erupted into a series of pointed social media posts, property moves, and fresh revelations about their lavish lifestyle—leaving fans and insiders alike wondering just how far this very public unraveling will go.
According to RadarOnline.com, the drama escalated in August 2025 when Isla Fisher, known for her roles in The Great Gatsby and Now You See Me, took to social media to mock her ex-husband. In a post that quickly went viral, Fisher riffed on the old adage about cows and milk, but with a twist that left little doubt about her intended target: “For all the men who say, ‘Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?’ Here’s an update for you. Nowadays, 80 percent of women are against marriage. Why? Because women realize it’s not worth buying an entire pig just to get a little sausage.” The comment, accompanied by a playful jab, was widely interpreted as a direct dig at Sacha Baron Cohen, the famously private star of the upcoming Mandrake the Magician superhero film.
Insiders told RadarOnline.com that Cohen, who has always shunned the Hollywood gossip circuit, was “incredibly upset” by Fisher’s public taunts. “Sacha hates this stuff being played out in public. He’s incredibly private and always avoided the Hollywood gossip circuit. So for Isla to be out here making a spectacle on social media is beyond upsetting,” a source revealed. The tension was further inflamed a few weeks earlier when Fisher teased Cohen about their parenting arrangements, posting a photo of herself at Wimbledon and tagging her ex with the cheeky caption, “Hang on? Who’s watching the kids? @sachabaroncohen.”
The couple, who were together for 23 years and married for 14, finalized their divorce on June 14, 2025. They share three children: Olive, 17, Elula, 14, and Montgomery, 9. Fisher has described the experience as “the most difficult thing I’ve been through,” a sentiment that echoes the emotional upheaval many couples face during high-profile splits. The end of their marriage came after Australian actress Rebel Wilson accused Cohen of harassment on the set of The Brothers Grimsby, a claim that added further strain to an already tense situation.
Friends of Fisher say she is now “fired up” and “finally free to speak her mind.” According to one insider, “She’s been telling friends she feels like she lost herself in that marriage and is just now reclaiming her voice.” While some see Fisher’s newfound outspokenness as empowering, others—especially those close to Cohen—view it as a deliberate attempt to provoke her ex. “It’s obvious she’s trying to upset him and it’s working,” the source told RadarOnline.com. “Now he’s having his big career moment with his Marvel movie debut, and she’s raining on his parade. He’s afraid that this is only the beginning, that she’ll keep escalating and eventually do some poison tell-all. That would be his worst nightmare.”
Beyond the social media sparring, the couple’s luxurious lifestyle has also come under the spotlight. As reported by The Daily Mail, Fisher and Cohen once rented a sprawling harbourside mansion in Sydney’s exclusive Darling Point, paying a jaw-dropping $100,000 a week. The five-level, 650-square-metre home boasted five bedrooms, seven bathrooms, a saltwater heated pool with swim jets, and panoramic views of Double Bay. Designed by the acclaimed architects BKH, the property also featured a floral-tiled mural, open-plan living spaces, multiple entertainment areas, a spiral staircase, a lift, a wine room, and three gourmet kitchens. The main bedroom included a dressing room and an oversized en-suite with a standalone bath, while a separate guest level offered its own bedroom and kitchen. The couple and their children lived in this opulent residence before relocating to Perth in 2021. The mansion was sold in 2022 for an eye-watering $24 million.
Despite their lengthy stay in Australia, Fisher and Cohen never purchased property there during their 14 years together, instead splitting their time between London, Los Angeles, and various high-end rentals. Fisher, who had owned a vintage art deco apartment in Sydney’s Woollahra since 1995, listed the two-bedroom, one-bathroom property for $1.1 million in September 2024. After several price reductions and a sluggish market, she ultimately sold it for $930,000 in October 2024. The apartment had served as a rental investment while Fisher worked on Hollywood hits like Wedding Crashers and Confessions of a Shopaholic.
The couple’s split was first announced publicly in April 2024, with both parties jointly filing for divorce in 2023. The divorce was finalized in June 2025. Since then, Fisher has reportedly been searching for a new home in North London, with sources telling The Daily Mail that she has a budget of £13 million (about AUD 24 million) and is eyeing properties in the upscale Hampstead area.
As the dust settles, it’s clear that both stars are navigating uncharted territory. Cohen, now basking in the spotlight of his Marvel debut, may be hoping to keep his private life out of the tabloids, but Fisher’s candid posts have ensured that their story remains front and center. Meanwhile, Fisher’s determination to “reclaim her voice” and move forward—both personally and professionally—suggests that this high-profile split is far from over, at least in the public’s imagination.
For fans and observers, the saga of Sacha Baron Cohen and Isla Fisher offers a rare glimpse behind the curtain of celebrity life, where even the most private stars can find themselves at the center of a very public storm.
