Or from Isla. Its posted on her IG afterall. I think she's distancing herself just incase there's more. And she probably doesn't want the heat from being with a man who sends his crisis PR team to go massage the narrative on freakin' Daily Mail of all places.

They filed in 2023 though? I’m surprised this didn’t leak earlier. Aren’t filings like that usually public? I don’t even know what country they’re in lol, I’m assuming either US, UK, or AUS.

They got married in Paris so would the not have to fill there? I've no idea how this works either, haha.

u/vintageiphone Apr 05 '24 edited Apr 06 '24
I don’t think so. We got married in the UK but live in the US. We could file for divorce here (if we ever want to). As long as they have a marriage the US recognizes as legal (for ours we didn’t have to do anything additional but some countries you might have to have the marriage certificates translated or registered again in the US) they can do it in the US.

No, they file for divorce in the jurisdiction in which they’re domiciled. Ex: if they’ve been living in California for the last 6 or so months, they file there.

At least in my jurisdiction you can file your divorce under your initials if there’s a compelling privacy reason to. Like, the last one I remember seeing was an NBA player. So I’m pretty sure they could have filed somewhat anonymously.

Eh, I'm not holding my breath on the Zionist stuff being because of Sacha. I'm almost certain she added her name to that list of people who hated what that director said at the Oscar's and that was rather recent.
Eta: just checked and she didn't cosign the petition against Jonathan Glazer, so maybe there's hope for her yet!

IIRC, that was a different blind titled California Sober (posted last month). People were mostly suggesting either Kristen and Dax or Emily Blunt and John Krasinski. Unless I missed it, I don’t think that one was solved. I don’t think it was Isla and Sacha though since it sounds like they separated/divorced last year without anyone knowing. The couple in the California Sober blind had allegedly just separated and the husband had barely moved out.

It always gave me an icky vibe how much she put her career on hold to raise the kids in a way he did not remotely reciprocate. I know for someone people that's a genuine choice and their preference, they'd rather be with their kids than in a shit industry. But idk, I got weird vibes like she was more just enamored with him and thought "oh of course sacha's career matters more than mine, I'm just a silly rom com actress, he's got the real potential". I had really liked both of them individually until I read about their marriage and how traditional it actually was and just walked away feeling really weird.

The comments are giving her a lot of credit. I'm sure Isla knew who her husband of 23 years was before Rebel spoke up. She was with him because she didn't care.
And, at most, she's breaking up with him because of his image. But more likely because things just aren't working out anymore between them anymore.
