SACHA Baron Cohen has been seen for the first time since he and wife Isla Fisher announced their split after 14 years of marriage.
Actor Sacha, 52, was spotted on Fifth Avenue in New York City yesterday amid the troubles in his personal life.

Looking downcast, the Borat star cut a casual figure in a khaki jumper and a fedora hat, along with cream trousers.
He appeared to go unnoticed while strolling The Big Apple’s busy streets.
Just a week ago Sacha and Isla told fans they separated last year in a joint statement on Instagram.
In a photo shared online, 48-year-old Isla and Sacha were pictured in all-white tennis gear as they cuddled together.
They wrote: “After a long tennis match lasting over twenty years, we are finally putting our racquets down.
“In 2023, we jointly filed to end our marriage.
“We have always prioritized our privacy, and have been working through this change,” the post continued.
“We forever share in our devotion and love for our children.
“We sincerely appreciate you respecting our families’ wish for privacy.”
The announcement came after Rebel Wilson made shock claims about her experience working with Sacha in her new memoir – which he denies.
Sacha and Isla walked down the aisle back in March 2010.
They share three children, two teen daughters and a nine-year-old.
This week, The Sun revealed Isla first approached a divorce lawyer back in 2022.
It is understood the star quietly contacted £550-an-hour Fiona Shackleton — Sir Paul McCartney’s legal expert in his £24million split from Heather Mills.
In June 2022, we contacted representatives for Isla and Sacha regarding this, but they denied it.
But on Friday, the couple confirmed they had split last year — months after The Sun first approached them.
Baroness Shackleton, who also negotiated the then Prince Charles’ divorce to Princess Diana, advised the couple to go down an “amicable route”.

All the signs Isla and Sacha had secretly split
The couple have revealed they actually split last year, despite only just revealing their divorce.
Here we look at the signs they had already broken up before revealing their split news:
Social media silence – Sacha has been absent from Instagram since last Christmas.
Spending time with friends – Isla has been been following that classic post break-up move of spending more time with her girlfriends.
Hidden ring finger – No fans noticed at the time, but in many Instagram shots from this year, Isla has hidden her right hand so her wedding finger was not visible in many shots.
Missing man – The last image Isla shared of her and Sacha prior to the divorce announcement was back in November last year.
