New Idea
Isla Fisher and fiance Sacha Baron Cohen would rather dirty nappies than wedding bells – so they’ve put their nuptials on hold in order to concentrate on extending their family.
Less than a year after welcoming their first child, daughter Olive, a close friend of Isla’s tells New Idea that the news was a surprise but it made perfect sense for the famous couple.
'Both she and Sacha are from big families – she’s one of five kids and he's one of three – and they’re both very open about wanting a house full of kids,’ the friend says.
'They want the children close in age so they can play together, and Isla doesn’t want her career to keep stopping and starting, so having them close together makes sense for them.'
And with Sacha’s latest movie deal for his character Bruno nearing $43 million, all Isla, 32, really has to worry about is getting pregnant, which they’re more than happy to work on.
'Isla can afford to have maids and cooks and cleaners do all the heavy lifting, which means she’ll probably have more time with her kids than most mums,’ the friend says.
The Australian actress describes being pregnant as 'the best thing in the world', and says that while some actresses might be frightened to sacrifice their career for family life, becoming a mother had changed her priorities forever.
