Isla Fisher reportedly told friends she was seeking the advice of a formidable celebrity divorce lawyer in 2022 before her split from her estranged husband Sacha Baron Cohen.
It has been claimed Isla and Sacha, who have three children, could attempt to come to a settlement over Sacha's £40million estate. 'Fiona Shackleton was recommended by mutual contacts, and Isla was put in touch with an associate at the office.'Fiona is an incredible lawyer, and utterly fearsome in both reputation and ability.'
Sacha is said to have spoken to Laura Wasser who represented Johnny Depp when he split from Amber Heard, and was involved in Angelina Jolie's divorce from Brad Pitt 'We forever share in our devotion and love for our children. We sincerely appreciate your respecting our family's wish for privacy.' However, Baron Cohen, 52, who grew up in Hammersmith and is very close to his family, was itching to return to London, while his wife was happier in her native Australia.
'He made this sacrifice for her and would make many sacrifices for her throughout their marriage. He is deeply affected by their split because she was his life for many years.' Just two months ago Isla discussed her Valentine's plans with Sacha on The Kelly Clarkson show, saying: 'Every year Sacha does give me a card that’s like, ‘Happy Valentine’s from... ’ and then there’s a massive question mark.
