Isla Fisher has finally admitted something that we’ve all been assuming for ages: being married to Sacha Baron Cohen is embarrassing.

According to the long-suffering Mrs Baron, her hubby is as crazy and as unpredictable in real life as he is when he’s being filmed.

“I cannot tell you how embarrassing he is in social situations. To him, there’s no difference between the awkward gaffes he deliberately makes as a comic, and the terrible faux pas he innocently commits as my husband,” said Isla.

“One problem is that he doesn’t always recognise stars when they are not in character. He once told Diane Keaton at a dinner party that she should have won an Oscar for her performance in The Kids Are All Right because he thought she was Annette Benning. Another time he asked Oscar-winning Cate Blanchett: ‘So what do you do for a living?’” she added.

Despite the embarrassment, Isla is still happily married to Sacha

Isla also lifted the lid on one of the most embarrassing things that her husband has ever done. According to the actress, the pair were attending a screening of a Jack Black film when a very busty woman made a very long speech.

“After the film, Sacha said to Jack: ‘Why did you make such a short speech? You should have shut up the woman with the big bosoms and said more yourself.’ Jack said through gritted teeth: ‘That was my mother,’” said Isla.

“Although even that didn’t silence Sacha. He told Jack: ‘Well at least your mother has a fabulous bosom.’ And he turned to me and said: ‘You’ve always wanted larger breasts, haven’t you Isla?’ I wanted the floor to swallow me up!” she added.

Eh, we can see why. But despite the embarrassment, Isla admits that she loves her quirky hubby and is still head over heels with him. Fair play to her is all we can say, we’re not sure we could cope if our other half was constantly putting his foot in it!
