Sacha Baron Cohen slams Rebel Wilson’s ‘false claims’ that he tried to ‘threaten’ her over memoir
Fisher went to the theater in London earlier this week in London with Naomi Watts, “Downton Abbey” star Michelle Dockery and producer Bruna Papandrea, who is Reese Witherspoon’s business partner, and posted an Instagram captioned, “❤️ Girls night at the theater.”
The revelation that they are separated comes as Baron Cohen is embroiled in a war of words with Rebel Wilson, who dubbed him a “massive a**hole” after working with him on “The Brothers Grimsby” in 2016.
She devoted a chapter of her new memoir, “Rebel Rising” to attacking the star, claiming that he humiliated her and and asked her to perform a lewd act on him, then tried to “threaten” her before her book came out.
Baron Cohen denied all the claims. Reps told Page Six, “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 ‘Grimsby.’”
Chatter first arose about Baron Cohen and Fisher before Christmas, when Australian Fisher was clearly hiding her left hand in photos she posted online from an event for fashion designer Monique Lhuillier.
Then Cohen, 52, mingled solo with the A-list at CAA’s Oscar party at the Sunset Tower hotel in March, where guests included Margot Robbie, Ryan Gosling, Steven Spielberg and Chris Rock — and was then spotted by our sources at “The Party”, the ultra-exclusive post-Oscars bash that Madonna throws every year with her manager Guy Oseary, alongside Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce.
He was also seen hanging out with metallica drummer Lars Ulrich at the Time Women of the Year 2024 event in Hollywood the week of the awards.
Meanwhile, Fisher, 48 — who friends said has been left devastated by the death of her father Brian in January 2021 — went to the Vanity Fair party on her own and posed for photos with pals including Sofia Vergara.
She was clearly not wearing a wedding ring, and instead, she had a large cocktail ring on her wedding finger.
The couple first met at a party in Sydney in 2001. Speaking about their meeting, Baron Cohen told the New York Times: “She was hilarious. We were at a very pretentious party, and me and her bonded over taking the mick out of the other people in the party. I knew instantly. I don’t know if she did.”
Meanwhile, Fisher has told Page Six how she was “grateful” to have fallen in love with her husband.
They got engaged in 2004 and in preparation for their wedding, Fisher converted to Judaism, Cohen’s religion, in early 2007. They wed in an intimate ceremony in Paris on March 15, 2010.
Fisher told the British newspaper Metro in 2009: “I love Judaism, the fact that there’s such a huge emphasis on family and, to me, family’s everything.
“We’re quite observant, we keep Shabbat and do Friday night dinner and celebrate the holidays. I really enjoy being part of that Jewish community.”
They have two daughters, Olive, 15, and Elula, 13, alongside their 8-year-old son, Montgomery, and have brought up their family between Sydney, London and LA.
Last year, Fisher revealed why they have kept their kids under wraps.
“It’s unfair on them,” she told UK’s “Lorraine” show, “Kids deserve a normal childhood. I want them to be outdoors and play and run around [and] not feel self-conscious.”
Asked about her long relationship with the “Ali G” star, Fisher told “The Project”: “I think by Hollywood standards it’s probably 200 years,” she said. “I feel like it’s a Golden Jubilee or something. Everyone was congratulating me.”
