Sacha Baron Cohen seen for the first time since wife Isla Fisher announced their split after 14 years of marriage
SACHA Baron Cohen has been seen for the first time since his wife Isla Fisher announced their split after 14 years of marriage.
Actor Sacha, 52, enjoyed a walk on Fifth Avenue in New York City yesterday amid the troubles in his personal life.
The downcast Borat star cut a casual figure in a khaki jumper and a fedora hat, along with cream trousers.
He appeared to go unnoticed while strolling The Big Apple's busy streets among commuters.
Just a week ago, the couple told fans they separated last year with a joint statement on social media.
In a photo shared on Friday, 48-year-old Isla and Sacha wore all-white tennis gear as they cuddled together.

"After a long tennis match lasting over twenty years, we are finally putting our racquets down," they wrote.
"In 2023, we jointly filed to end our marriage."
"We have always prioritized our privacy, and have been working through this change," the post continued.
"We forever share in our devotion and love for our children."
"We sincerely appreciate you respecting our families' wish for privacy," the text concluded.
The pair walked down the aisle back in March 2010.
They share three children: two teen daughters and a nine-year-old.
This week, 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, we contacted representatives for Isla and Sacha regarding this, but they denied it.
But on Friday, the couple confirmed they had split last year — months after The Sun first approached them.
Baroness Shackleton, who also negotiated the then Prince Charles’ divorce to Princess Diana, advised the couple to go down an “amicable route”.
