they had split in 2023 following 13 years of marriage.Days before the bombshell announcement, however, Rebel Wilson had claimed in her autobiography, that Cohen had sexually harassed her when they worked together on their 2016 comedy “The Brothers Grimsby.”Wilson also claimed the “Borat” star had then attempted to block her memoir from being published – which he vehemently denied.Cohen and Fisher have remained tight-lipped amid their ongoing $75 million divorce, but Fisher has now spoken candidly about her personal life — with the Daily Mail claiming that Cohen is livid over her remarks.

Fisher spoke with The Sunday Times earlier this month to promote “Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy,” in which she plays Rebecca, the next-door neighbor to Renee Zellweger’s iconic lead.The women in my life have held me,” Fisher told the outlet. “The female relationships that I cultivated in our business, those women have been there for me.

I’m actually going to get emotional.”‘I’m sitting here today because of them. I’ve learnt so much about the power of female friendship and I’ve just learnt that I do have resilience, who I am outside of a partnership, and what my values are.

It has been this expansive learning curve.”Once Cohen learned of the interview, a source told Daily Mail that he interpreted the comments as a direct dig at him.“This comment left Sacha furious,” a friend of his revealed.“It felt like a blatant statement that she was on side with Rebel, the whole women sticking together thing was obvious and that is what he drew from the situation and it has made him very cross and upset.”“Sacha was fuming when he read that,” they added.
