Sacha Baron Cohen puts wedding ring back on two months after announcing split from Isla Fisher
SACHA Baron Cohen appears to be wearing his wedding ring again after announcing his split from wife Isla Fisher in April.
The 52-year-old actor was spotted without the gold band on his left hand just last week.
Today, the Ali G and Borat legend was seen with the unique piece of jewellery for the first time since the pair announced their split after 14 years of marriage.
Sacha, 52, took a stroll in North London and looked in good form dressed in a navy jumper and a flat cap amid the troubles in his personal life.
Sacha and Isla got engaged in 2004 and married in 2010. They share three children.
Isla has been seen without her wedding ring on this year, and enjoyed a girls’ night in London shortly after they went public with their break-up.
Announcing their split, Isla and Sacha were pictured in all-white tennis gear as they cuddled together and penned a statement saying “we forever share in our devotion and love for our children”.
The Sun revealed Isla first approached a divorce lawyer back in 2022.
It is understood the star quietly contacted £550-an-hour Fiona Shackleton — Sir Paul McCartney’s legal expert in his £24million split from Heather Mills.
In June 2022, The Sun contacted representatives for Isla and Sacha regarding this, but they denied it.
Sacha, who grew up in Hammersmith, rose to fame in the 1990s with his Ali G character, the infamous spoof wannabe gangster.
He also received rave reviews for his character Borat, a journalist from Kazakhstan, and played the role of flamboyant Austrian fashionista Bruno.
In March, Sacha became embroiled in a dispute with Australian actress Rebel Wilson ahead of the release of her memoir, Rebel Rising.
She likened one actor to a “fourth-grade bully” after working with Sacha on his movie Grimsby.
His lawyers said evidence showed her allegations had “no basis in reality” and were part of a “cynical commercial ploy to promote her book”.

“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.”
“We have always prioritized our privacy, and have been working through this change.
“We forever share in our devotion and love for our children.”
In the awkward interview from February, the actress spoke to Kelly Clarkson on her chat show about her Valentine’s Day plans.
As she chatted about Sacha the Australian star seemed smitten with her husband, despite the fact by this point they had already split up.
Host Kelly asked Isla if she had any Valentine’s Day traditions, to which she replied: “Every year Sacha does give me a card that [says] ‘happy Valentine’s from…’ and then there’s a massive question mark, as if anybody else would… as if I have any other Valentines.”
According to the estranged couple’s statement, they had already split up at the time.
