Rebel Wilson stepped out for a walk Thursday amid the fallout from her tell-all memoir.

Rebel Wilson went out for a walk this week amid the fallout from her tell-all memoir.

In the book, the 44-year-old accused former co-star Sacha Baron Cohen of inappropriate behavior on set, just days before the Borat actor announced his split from wife Isla Fisher. He has denied all allegations.

On Thursday, Rebel attempted to keep a low profile while leaving a local gym in West Hollywood.

She was perfectly designed for a workout in a white tank top, black leggings and sneakers, and a gym bag slung over one shoulder.

The Australian actress tied her blonde back into a messy ponytail and donned a pair of aviator sunglasses.

It comes after Sacha, 52, and Isla, 48, announced they had quietly split last year by sharing a rare photo posing in tennis outfits.

It has since been claimed that Rebel’s accusations against Sacha, which he has strenuously denied, were the catalyst for their marital breakdown.

Rebel has denied being the reason for Baron Cohen and Fisher’s divorce.

“I don’t think it had anything to do with their divorce. His actions were with multiple people,” she told the audience while promoting her memoir.

‘From what they told me, they started the process last year. I think some of the headlines pressured him to announce it.

She continued: “But I think Isla is an amazing person and the sad part of all that is that I was friendly with her, not good friends but friendly, and the sad part of all that is that after everything that happened in Grimsby I did not do it”. Talk to her never again.

Wilson concluded that he wishes the Confessions of a Shopaholic star, 48, “well” and hopes “everything goes well for him.”

But ultimately, she “really” doesn’t believe their breakup has “anything to do” with her.

In her memoir, Rebel described her experience filming the 2016 film The Brothers Grimsby with Sasha Baron Cohen, whom she has referred to as a 'jerk'.

Speaking about Andy Cohen on Watch What Happens Live, Rebel insisted she would never work with Sacha again.

‘There is never money. Yes. I have a no-idiots policy with work,’ Rebel insisted, as many in the audience applauded.

When Andy started throwing around dollar amounts like $20 million, $30 million, and $50 million, Wilson insisted that she still wouldn’t work with him.

Since the news of Sacha’s split, Rebel warned in an interview on Saturday that “the truth will come out.”

Sacha’s representatives say he denies any allegations of mistreatment or harassment of Rebel on the set of the 2016 action comedy film Grimsby, released in North America as The Brothers Grimsby.

Rebel says other women have “been in touch” with her since she made the claims in her new autobiography, Rebel Rising. There is no suggestion at this time that women are lodging claims against the Borat actor.

He continued: ‘It’s hard to say anything against someone who has a high profile, because you get hit with expensive lawyers and crisis PR people and all sorts of little tricks.

‘It doesn’t feel very good when all I do is share my story in my memoir, something I have every right to do.

“But I always think the truth will come out, so it’s great to have the book out now so people don’t just read the headlines, but can read the actual chapter.”

It comes after Sacha, 52, and Isla, 48, announced they had quietly split last year.

The comments, first reported by The Sun, come after days of frenzied speculation about Baron Cohen’s marriage following the publication of Rebel’s book.

She had played Baron Cohen’s girlfriend in Grimsby, a box office failure that was ridiculed by critics.

The film saw Baron Cohen’s football fanatic character, Nobby, get dragged into the world of espionage; It also starred Isla, Mark Strong, Penélope Cruz, Ricky Tomlinson and Johnny Vegas.

Rebel claimed in the memoir that during filming he would ask her to undress for scenes, in violation of her “no nudity” clause, and would ask her to perform a sex act with her butt on camera because it would be “fun.” His claims have been dismissed as “demonstrably false.”

She wrote that his actions made her feel “completely disrespected, which led me to treat myself with even more disrespect by eating in an extremely unhealthy way.”

Bridesmaid actress Rebel said she finally compromised and agreed to “slap him on the butt” in an improvised scene, and agreed after several rewrites.

But behind-the-scenes footage released after the claims were made seemed to suggest she was okay with the scene – a suggestion she has vehemently denied.

“It is a bad move to publish images of a part of that disgusting episode leaving aside everything that preceded it,” he said in a statement, adding that his “horrified refusal” to carry out the act was not included in the published footage.

He added: “What this edited video shows is what I had to do to get out of the room, as written in Rebel Rising.”

“Posting unauthorized and misleading behind-the-scenes videos without my approval is SBC’s (Sacha Baron Cohen) latest way to intimidate and deceive me.”
