Details regarding their finalized agreement remain unclear at this time.
Baron Cohen, 53, and Fisher, 49, shared that they were ending their relationship after nearly 14 years of marriage last April.
âAfter a long tennis match lasting over twenty years, we are finally putting our racquets down,â the two stars said in a joint statement at the time.
âIn 2023 we jointly filed to end our marriage. We have always prioritized our privacy, and have been quietly working through this change.â

The announcement came after Page Six learned they were living separate lives and asked for comment.

Despite rumors that the pair had turned sour toward each other amid the breakup, an insider exclusively told Page Six in February that Baron Cohen and Fisher were still fairly chummy as they ironed out the details in the dissolution of their marriage.
âAll divorces have their challenges, but things have gone pretty smoothly with Isla and Sacha,â the source shared.
âTheir announcement was well coordinated and struck the right tone [with] their tennis photo, they both have made their kids a priority.â

Around the same time, Fisher opened up about the divorce in an interview with the Sunday Times, calling the experience âthe most difficult thing Iâve been through.â
âIâve learned so much about myself in the process,â she shared. âI never imagined my family being separated, but we are committed and loving parents.â
The exes first met back in 2001 and tied the knot in 2010. They share three children together: two daughters and a son.
