Insiders Address Sacha Baron Cohen’s ‘Midlife Crisis’ After His Divorce

Sacha Baron Cohen‘s marriage to Isla Fisher came to a halting crash in 2024, but the actor has managed to raise eyebrows as he has been spotted with women almost half his age in recent times.

Rumors have been rife that he is living it up since his split, especially after “hard launching” his “midlife crisis” with a ripped physique, but his friends have shot down the claims, saying “it is not true.”

Isla Fisher, on her part, has been spilling details about her split from Sacha Baron Cohen, revealing in a recent interview that “it’s been a really challenging time.”

The ink on his 2024 divorce papers from Isla Fisher is barely dry, but Sacha Baron Cohen already sparked rumors he has moved on effortlessly after being seen cozying up to a string of influencers and OnlyFans models less than half his age.

Many seem to think he’s experiencing a “midlife crisis” following his divorce from Fisher after he was spotted being “flirtatious” with 26-year-old influencer Kelsey Calemine in a Hollywood nightclub last Friday.

The actor was pictured bidding her goodbye after collecting her number on his phone, and was also the gentleman as he walked her over to an Uber.

“He was staring at Kelsey and then walked over and started chatting to her. Outside, they were both very flirty, and they didn’t stop laughing,” a source said, per the Daily Mail.

Cohen further fueled the rumors when he had dinner at a steakhouse in Beverly Hills with 27-year-old OnlyFans model Hannah Palmer, after meeting at director Taika Waititi’s exclusive birthday bash in September.

However, an insider explained that it was just a dinner, not a date, and that Cohen may have been giving her career advice.

Now sources close to the funny man have addressed the rumors suggesting he didn’t mourn his broken-down marriage to Fisher, but has instead been frolicking with hot girls.

“He has taken things slowly after the divorce. There is no rush on his side to be with other people,” one of his friends told the Daily Mail‘s Alison Boshoff.

The continued, “He goes out sometimes, but he isn’t much of a clubbing guy. There has been a bit of dating and a bit of going out, nothing more than that.”

The insider further noted that the “story being told is that Sacha is prowling around nightclubs picking up hot young women, but that just is not true.”

The source went further to explain that the 54-year-old actor has not been involved in any serious romance since he and Fisher went their separate ways.

In fact, he won’t be announcing any relationship except it is very serious out of respect for his ex-wife and their children.

“He has a lot of respect for Isla and is also very conscious of the feelings of their children. That is why you have not seen him out on dates or with someone else,” the insider said.

“He is a man who guards his privacy and the privacy of the family very seriously, so he is barely seen out,” they continued. “This means that if he’s seen anywhere near a single woman, everyone rushes to say that there is something to it. Unfortunately, people presume a relationship which does not exist.”

Cohen and Fisher announced that they’d pulled the plug on their 13-year union back in April 2024.

At the time, they uploaded a photo of themselves in tennis outfits, writing, “After a long tennis match lasting over 20 years, we are finally putting our racquets down.”

They added that they’ll remain friends and are committed to co-parenting their three children together.
