Rebel Wilson has admitted that she hasn’t spoken with Isla Fisher after making bombshell claims about ex-husband Sacha Baron Cohen in her memoir, Rebel Rising.

The Pitch Perfect actress, 44, made several claims against her former Grimsby co-star, 52, accusing him of inappropriate on set behaviour. A week after the claims surfaced, Fisher announced she and Cohen had split last year after 14 years of marriage.

Speaking with the Kyle and Jackie O Show on Wednesday morning, Wilson said she hasn’t conversed with Fisher following the release of her memoir and the news of her split.

‘I haven’t spoken to her,’ she told hosts Kyle Sandilands and Jackie ‘O’ Henderson.

‘Obviously, I used to be friends with her before all this happened. We did a movie together called Bachelorette.’

Wilson added that she didn’t believe the revelations in her memoir were the cause for Isla’s break up with Sacha, but admitted the ‘timing wasn’t great for him’.

‘I don’t feel like I’m the reason [for their break up]. But it might have just been his general treatment to women,’ she continued.

Wilson first opened up about her difficult experience with the British actor in her new memoir Rebel Rising, which has finally been released in Australia and New Zealand with the allegations about Sascha – which he strongly denies – redacted.

The memoir was published in other countries like the US and UK last month.

The blacked out chapter was titled ‘Sacha Baron Cohen and Other A**holes’ and described the allegedly inappropriate manner Cohen behaved towards her on the set of the 2016 comedy movie Grimsby.

Wilson played Cohen’s on-screen girlfriend in the 2016 Louis Leterrier-directed film. 

Cohen’s legal team has deemed the decision by publishers HarperCollins a vindication, following the creator’s strong denial of Wilson’s claims.

‘HarperCollins did not fact check this chapter in the book prior to publication and took the sensible but terribly belated step of deleting Rebel Wilson’s defamatory claims once presented with evidence that they were false,’ the statement, presented in Deadline, said.

‘Printing falsehoods is against the law in the UK and Australia; this is not a ”peculiarity” as Ms Wilson said, but a legal principle that has existed for many hundreds of years.

‘This is a clear victory for Sacha Baron Cohen and confirms what we said from the beginning – that this is demonstrably false.’

After a redacted edition was finally published, publisher HarperCollins confirmed to MailOnline that details had been removed.

They told MailOnline: ‘The book contains some redactions in chapter 23 on pages 216, 217, 218 and 221, as well as an explanatory note at the beginning of the chapter.’

After the allegations were detailed in the US version of the book, Cohen’s spokesperson said: ‘While we appreciate the importance of speaking out, these demonstrably false claims are directly contradicted by extensive detailed evidence…

The book Rebel Rising, which has already been published in the US, features a chapter entitled Sacha Baron Cohen and Other A**holes but will have black lines going through certain parts

In response to the book’s UK release, Cohen’s legal team has deemed this decision by publishers HarperCollins a vindication, following the creator’s strong denial of Wilson’s claims

‘Including contemporaneous documents, film footage, and eyewitness accounts from those present before, during and after the production of The Brothers Grimsby.’

The UK version includes a reference to ‘the worst experience of my professional life. An incident that left me feeling bullied, humiliated and compromised…

‘It can’t be printed here due to the peculiarities of the law in England and Wales.’

The rest of the page is redacted, with black lines also removing shorter details elsewhere in the chapter.

The Australian version will include black lines removing the details in the chapter when the memoir hits local bookshelves. 

Last month, HarperCollins Australia told the Guardian that ‘for legal reasons we have redacted one chapter in the Australian/New Zealand edition and included an explanatory note accordingly. That chapter is a very small part of a much bigger story and we’re excited for readers to know Rebel’s story when the book is released, on Wednesday 8 May.’ 

The Bridesmaids star said her aim was not to cancel Cohen with her recollections in the memoir, but to retell an experience which made her feel ‘completely disrespected, which led to me treating myself with even more disrespect by eating in an extremely unhealthy way’.

In the book, Wilson says she ‘rues the day’ she met Cohen, who she had described as her ‘idol’.

Wilson branded her sex scene with Cohen in the film Grimsby ‘the most disgusting thing ever’, nine years before calling the star an ‘a**hole’ in her new memoir (pictured filming Grimsby in 2014)

She describes how they first met at a dinner party hosted by Little Britain star Matt Lucas, and a year later he offered her a role in Grimsby, which was released in North America as The Brothers Grimsby.

She played Dawn, the wife of Cohen’s character Nobby, a football fan who gets drawn into the world of his secret agent brother.

Last month, she first named Sacha as the celebrity responsible for making threats over the book after which his representatives hit back.

Taking to Instagram to confirm the identity, Wilson wrote: ‘I will not be silenced by high priced lawyers or PR crisis managers. The a****** I am talking about in ONE CHAPTER of my book is: Sacha Baron Cohen.’

In the wake of her statement, Cohen spoke out to TMZ via representatives, saying: ‘While we appreciate the importance of speaking out, these demonstrably false claims are directly contradicted by extensive detailed evidence…

‘[With] contemporaneous documents, film footage, and eyewitness accounts from those present before, during and after the production of The Brothers Grimsby.’

It comes after Coehn broke his silence after Wilson’s redacted memoir was released in the UK last week

As well as her shock comments about the ‘disgusting’ sex scene in Grimsby, in an interview with The Australian Women’s Weekly at the time, the Pitch Perfect star also slammed her character Dawn wearing a burqa in one scene.

She insisted at the time that the scenes were all in the name of comedy: ‘Obviously, I don’t mean any offence to Muslims. I asked my Muslim friend ‘Do you think this is alright, to tell the joke we’re telling?’ And she said yeah’.

She added: ‘But she’s pretty liberal and lives in New York so who knows? But it is a joke and no offence meant’.

Wilson’s post came just two days after the Pitch Perfect star alleged that a celebrity she once worked with was threatening her over the release of the memoir.

She detailed: ‘I wrote about an a**hole in my book. Now, said a****** is trying to threaten me. He’s hired a crisis PR manager and lawyers. He is trying to stop press coming out about my book. But the book WILL come out and you will all know.’

In an Instagram video shared on March 15, Wilson revealed that she has dedicated a chapter in her book to the ‘massive a**hole’ she worked with in Hollywood.
