Sacha Baron Cohen linked to OnlyFans model Hannah Palmer after Isla Fisher divorce

Sacha Baron Cohen, 53, has reportedly moved on from his £120 million divorce from Isla Fisher by dating Hannah Palmer, a 27-year-old model who is 26 years his junior. The Borat star is said to have formed a connection with Palmer after meeting at Taika Waititi’s Ibiza birthday party last month, and he and Palmer were photographed leaving a restaurant together before parting ways in the same Cadillac Escalade.

The Sun reported that the two spent about two hours inside the venue, deep in conversation, with onlookers noting a strong chemistry between them despite the age gap. The party, hosted by Taika Waititi and Rita Ora for their 50th birthday, drew an A-list guest list to a rented Ibiza villa, including Kate Moss, Matt Damon, Sebastian Stan and Natasha Lyonne. Sacha and Palmer were photographed at the celebration, and Palmer is said to be friends with Rita Ora, which helped bring the pair into the orbit of the event.

Insiders described Palmer as a “super fun” and “clever” woman, with one source telling The Sun that Sacha was lucky to secure a date with her and that their match-up would be watched with interest given the age difference and their respective circles in entertainment and social media.

Palmer has built a substantial following online, boasting about 2.2 million followers on Instagram and around 575,000 on TikTok. Her feed frequently features bikini shots from holidays in destinations such as Hawaii, Mexico and St Tropez. She has also been associated with high-profile friends in the industry, including Chantel Jeffries and Vas J Morgan, and her past online presence includes an OnlyFans account, which she has claimed earned her a significant sum in her first year on the platform.

The reported romance follows months of public focus on the end of Baron Cohen’s marriage. He and Isla Fisher, the Australian actress, quietly separated in 2023 after 14 years together and three children. The couple announced that they had finalized their divorce in June, while stressing their ongoing commitment to co-parenting and their family’s privacy.

The two met in 2001 at a party in Sydney and wed nine years later. Baron Cohen has spoken in interviews about how he realized fairly quickly that Fisher was funny and that their initial connection came from bonding over poking fun at the pretentiousness of their social circle. The pair publicly acknowledged their split last year, posting a joint message on social media describing their long-running tennis partnership as a metaphor for putting their “racquets down” while reaffirming their devotion to their children.

Industry and fan attention has since shifted toward Baron Cohen’s personal life, with observers noting that he has remained relatively private about his dating, especially after the high-profile divorce. A representative for Baron Cohen did not provide a comment when contacted for this report, and a request for comment from Fisher’s team was not publicly disclosed.

Isla Fisher has recently discussed the emotional and personal impact of the separation, describing it as a difficult period and emphasizing her efforts to rebuild her identity outside of the marriage. In interviews conducted after the divorce announcement, she spoke about focusing on her children and pursuing renewed work opportunities while maintaining privacy around family matters.

As the couple continues to navigate co-parenting, attention remains on how both individuals manage public interest in their personal lives and transitions. Family sources reiterate that privacy is requested for their children, and there is no indication of any immediate statement beyond the earlier notices about the divorce and co-parenting commitments.
