Isla Fisher wraps up warm as she walks her dog in London

Isla Fisher wrapped up as she walked her dog with her mother after her ‘challenging’ split from ex-husband Sacha Baron Cohen. 

The Australian actress, 49, recently revealed how she has spent the past year rebuilding her ‘sense of self’ after divorcing the Borat star, 54.

On Friday she was seen out walking her dog through Hampstead, North London, where she lives, with her mother Elspeth Reid. 

The Now You See Me star kept warm in the chilly London weather in a black padded The North Face jacket.

She completed her outdoorsy ensemble with a pair of grey sweatpants from Adanola Active and black Hunter welly boots

Her ginger locks were swept up into a messy bun and she sported a pair of black sunglasses. 

It comes after the actress admitted she has had ‘a really challenging’ time after her split from husband Sacha.

In an interview in November she revealed how she has spent the past year rebuilding her ‘sense of self’ post divorce.

Isla and Sacha mutually announced the end of their 14-year marriage at the end of 2023 with the divorce finalised this past June.

The actress, who shares three children with her ex, has revealed how she has spent the two years since the split focusing on work and herself. 

Sacha’s approach to single life though has so far been in stark contrast to Isla’s.

Only three months after the exes confirmed their divorce was complete, it was reported the Borat star, 54, had moved on with a younger model – Hannah Palmer, 27. 

Then on Friday the actor was snapped with social media star Kelsey Calemine, 26, who is 28 years his junior.

Speaking to NewBeauty Isla said: ‘It has been a really challenging time. I definitely feel like there’s something about the divorce club that anyone in it understands in a way other people don’t. It’s a different grief.’

Switching to a more uplifting outlook, Isla added: ‘I feel like creating a new identity after your divorce is so fun, though. You get to reflect on your values and goals, explore new interests, focus on what you want and rebuild your sense of self.’

She explained that she’s enjoying having the headspace and time to focus on herself.

‘It’s a lot like that, reconnecting to maybe passions you had when you were a kid, but they fell by the wayside when you were raising a family,’ she said.

‘All the relationships that you have in your life that were not necessarily the forefront of the way that you spend your time, because you’re married. 

‘Those relationships that are so supportive and brilliant and often really, really old get to retake centre stage. I think that’s a really exciting thing.’

Isla added: ‘There are lots of positives that have come about from all this – like self-exploration and just trying to be kind to myself. 

‘I can just give myself grace whenever I like. That’s all I’m trying to do.’

Last year, Isla admitted she is not looking to date again anytime soon in the wake of her divorce.

‘That’s not on my to-do list. I’m not ready to think about any of that,’ she told The Sunday Times, explaining her own parents separated when she was nine-years-old and admitting their peaceful arrangement was what she now strives for.
