Isla Fisher has made a shock statement about marriage just weeks after finalising her divorce from ex-husband Sacha Baron Cohen.
The Aussie actress, 48, took to Instagram on Wednesday to share a brutally honest quote about modern relationships.
Isla fired off a cheeky take on an age-old saying – and turned it completely on its head.
‘For all the men who say, “Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?” Here’s an update for you,’ her post began.
‘Nowadays, 80% of women are against marriage. Why? Because women realise it’s not worth buying an entire pig just to get a little sausage.’

Isla Fisher has made a shock statement about marriage just weeks after finalising her divorce from ex-husband Sacha Baron Cohen
The fiery remark appeared to take a thinly veiled swipe at Cohen, 53, whom Isla split from last year after 14 years of marriage.
It comes just days after Isla took another cheeky dig at her ex after spotting him at a Wimbledon match in England.
She and Sacha had no awkward run-ins at the prestigious event, which came weeks after they finalised their multi-million dollar divorce on June 14.
Isla showed that things were still amicable between the pair as she made a hilarious quip about their co-parenting relationship.
Sharing a screenshot of a MailOnline article about the pair’s separate appearances at Centre Court, the Aussie actress tagged the Borat star and joked: ‘Hang on? Who’s watching the kids? @sachabaroncohen’
The former couple met in 2001 and tied the knot nine years later, welcoming three children, before they announced last year that they’d split in 2023.
And coincidentally, the duo used the medium of tennis to make the separation announcement, with a photo of themselves posing in matching tennis outfits.
Sharing the photo to both of their Instagram Stories in April 2024, they declared their split with the caption: ‘After a long tennis match lasting over 20 years, we are finally putting our racquets down.’

The exes also confirmed their divorce had been finalised last month, with another simultaneous statement posted to their Instagrams.
It read: ‘Our divorce has now been finalised. We are proud of all we’ve achieved together and, continuing our great respect for each other, we remain friends and committed to co-parenting our wonderful children. We ask for the media to continue to respect our children’s privacy.’
A source said after the announcement: ‘It’s all sorted. Now Sacha and Isla both just want to get on with the rest of their lives and focus on their family’s well-being.’
Speaking earlier this year of their break-up, Isla admitted: ‘It’s the most difficult thing that I’ve been through and I’ve learnt so much about myself in the process.
‘I never imagined my family being separated but we are committed and loving parents.’
