– Reported – January, 14 2015
Isla Fisher wore snuggly knit top and a pair of ripped denim skinny-leg jeans, she looked stunning. Shes expecting her third child with husband Sacha Baron Cohen and on Tuesday when Isla Fisher headed out to the shops in Beverly Hills, California it was all about chic, comfortable basics.The 38-year-old Great Gatsby actress opted for an oversized grey jumper, which skimmed loosely over her blossoming bump. The snuggly knit also had navy stars emblazoned across it. Isla toughened up her ensemble in a pair of ripped denim skinny-leg jeans, while she toted a large black designer handbag. Her shiny long auburn locks were worn out, with a subtle wave, and she accessorised her look with a pair of brown sunglasses, dangly white earrings and a silver necklace.
Two months ago Isla and her actor beau Sacha, who she married in an intimate ceremony in France in 2010, confirmed their daughters Olive, seven, and Elula, four, would be getting a new sibling. The exciting news meant the former Perth local pulled out of appearing in the Now You See Me sequel.
Lizzy Caplan has since been brought into replace Isla as the female lead in Now You See Me: The Second Act. Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Dave Franco, Morgan Freeman, Michael Caine and Mark Ruffalo have all returned for the film which began filming last month in London. Isla recently told The Telegraph that she’s deliberately taken supporting roles in recent years so she can spend more time with her husband and daughters.
‘Family is 100 percent my top priority. So I’m much more comfortable doing supporting roles right now. And often,’ she revealed. ‘They’re the most interesting,’ the star reasoned. ‘You get to be a character actress.’ In 2013 Isla spoke to Fitness Magazine about her past pregnancies. I gained 65 pounds with my first baby and 70 with my second, she said. I had severe morning sickness both times, so I mostly ate supersize bowls of white pasta with loads of butter and cheese because that was the only thing that took away the nausea.
