Isla Fisher is very protective of her personal life and does not wish to discuss her relationship with Sacha Baron Cohen or daughter Olive in detail in the media and we wish to respect the family's wishes. As Isla says: "Motherhood is my favorite topic. In private! But publicly, I don't want to talk about it. Because I don't want to draw any extra attention to her. She didn't choose to be born into... You know. She deserves her anonymity!" Here you can, however, read up a little bit about Isla's funnyman fiance and their beautiful baby girl.
Sacha Baron Cohen (born October 13, 1971) is an English comedian, writer and actor most noted for his comic characters Borat (a Kazakh reporter), Ali G (a junglist-hip hop gangsta wannabe from suburban Staines) and Bruno (a flamboyantly gay Austrian fashion reporter). He began dating Isla Fisher in 2002 and the couple announced their engagement in late 2003 and plan to wed in a traditional Jewish ceremony. No date is set at the moment. Isla, who says that she did not grow up in a religious household, has converted to Judaism after years of study, and has received the approval of Baron Cohen's observant Jewish parents. "Judaism is such a beautiful, old religion thats so rich in culture," says Isla. "I would do anything - move into any religion - to be united in marriage with him. We have a future together, and religion comes second to love as far as we are concerned," commented Isla in 2004. According to Baron Cohen, "I wouldn't say that I am a religious Jew, but I'm still proud to be Jewish." Isla says that her relationship with Sacha is "pretty nomadic" and to quip that a 30cm height difference "doesn't generally keep people apart". Fisher comments that her personal life "is very important to me and it definitely comes first" but that she and Baron Cohen live pretty separate professional lives.
On October 19, 2007, Isla gave birth to her first child in Los Angeles, a daughter they named Olive. Isla and Sacha have not released an approved photograph of their daughter to the press but we know that their bundle of joy has dark features much like her father. Isla says that she loves being a mother and will be very picky with her roles to be able to spend as much time with Olive as possible. The family splits their time between London and Los Angeles.
