Perth-raised star Isla Fisher has been spotted out and about in London’s Notting Hill with fellow Aussie actor Deborra-Lee Furness.

Despite the neighbourhood’s romantic film ties, the pair of high-profile divorcees — formerly married to Sacha Baron Cohen and Hugh Jackman respectively — preferred to keep the company of female friends as they enjoyed a low-key catch-up.

The pair were seen dining with British media personality Amanda de Cadenet at popular West London eatery Granger & Co.

Braving the crisp English air, Fisher could be seen in baggy jeans, a blazer and magenta scarf, while Furness donned a dark zipped hoodie, casual white pants, and oversized shades that dwarfed those of her Aussie compatriot.

The sighting comes as Fisher’s ex-husband promotes his latest film Ali G: Who Iz I? — a reprisal of his iconic street hooligan Ali G 26 years after he emerged on Da Ali G Show.

The film opened in Australian cinemas with very limited screenings, and is now available to stream on Amazon Prime.

Centring around four friends who retreat to a luxury spa for a raucous couple of days, Fisher stars alongside genre favourites Leslie Mann, Anna Faris and Michelle Buteau.

Residing in London, she shares three kids with the British actor, 55, whom she divorced in June 2025.

Furness’ most notable recent screen role came via the 2024 Aussie production of Force of Nature: The Dry 2, which followed Eric Bana’s 2020 myster-thriller The Dry.

The industry veteran split from Jackman in 2023, with the Wolverine star this week offering a tribute to Star Trek actor Patrick Stewart following his death aged 86.

“We lost one of the greats of stage and screen today,” Jackman wrote in an Instagram post.

“And, in my book, a tremendous friend and man. I learned so much from him. I will miss you, Patrick Stewart, all of my days.”
