Rebel Wilson has broken her silence after Isla Fisher and Sacha Baron Cohen announced their shock separation.

Fisher and Baron Cohen wed in 2010, but quietly split last year.

News of their separation has only just come to light, however, with the pair sharing a joint statement on social media yesterday (April 5).

“After a long tennis match lasting over twenty years, we are finally putting our racquets down. In 2023 we jointly filed to end our marriage,” the statement began, which was shared alongside a snap of Fisher and Baron Cohen wearing tennis outfits.

“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. We sincerely appreciate your respecting our family’s wish for privacy.”

The news of the split comes amid Wilson’s claims that she was ‘𝓈ℯ𝓍ually harassed’ by Baron Cohen while filming The Brothers Grimsby.

Baron Cohen vehemently denies the claims.

The Pitch Perfect star made a series of comments about her former co-star in her new memoir that hit shelves in the US series this week.

And now Wilson has spoken out on Instagram following the news of Fisher and Baron Cohen’s split.

She began: “What a week!”

Failing to address Baron Cohen and Fisher’s divorce, the 44-year-old continued: “I need a lie down on the couch now…for real!

“Thank you so much to everyone who has bought REBEL RISING and is already enjoying it! Love you.”

Next to the caption she shared two behind-the-scenes videos of a recent photoshoot she did with photographer Jeff Lipsky for her Sunday Times Magazine cover.

For the shoot, the mom-of-one sported an emerald green satin dress.

As well as discussing Baron Cohen in her tell-all book, Wilson also addresses losing her virginity in her 30s.

“Not everybody has to lose their virginity as a teenager. People can wait till they’re ready or wait till they’re a bit more mature,” she writes in Rebel Rising.

“And I think that could be a positive message. You obviously don’t have to wait until you’re in your thirties like me, but you shouldn’t feel pressure as a young person.”

As to who her first 𝓈ℯ𝓍ual partner was, she names fellow comic Mickey Gooch Jr.

“Micks, I know this might be news to you if you are reading this, but yes I lost my virginity to you,” Wilson wrote.
