"Although they are both famous and rich, they have never acted snobby and stuck-up," a source tells PEOPLE of the former couple

Sacha Baron Cohen and Isla Fisher "worked" well as a couple for a long time prior to announcing their divorce, a source tells PEOPLE.

"They were certainly never your typical Hollywood couple," the source continues of Baron Cohen, 52, and Fisher, 48. "Although they are both famous and rich, they have never acted snobby and stuck-up. In many ways, they were always an odd couple."

"It just worked for them though," the source adds. "[Isla] always found [Sacha] hilarious and didn't mind his quirky personality. Isla has always had his back."

The Borat actor and Wedding Crashers actress shared joint statements to their Instagram Stories to announce their divorce publicly on April 5.

"After a long tennis match lasting over twenty years, we are finally putting our racquets down. In 2023 we jointly filed to end our marriage," the statement read, accompanied by a photo of Baron Cohen and Fisher wearing white tennis apparel.

"We have always prioritized our privacy, and have been quietly working through this change," the former couple added. "We forever share in our devotion and love for our children. We sincerely appreciate your respecting our family’s wish for privacy."

After Baron Cohen and Fisher announced they were ending their marriage, another insider told PEOPLE that Baron Cohen "had been talking to divorce lawyers in the summer of 2023."

The insider added that it wasn't the first time the pair had explored a possible split, also reaching out to divorce lawyers "several years prior."

Baron Cohen and Fisher first met at a 2001 party in Sydney — years before either actor gained attention for their work onscreen — and married on March 15, 2010.

The former couple share three children: two daughters and a son, whom they welcomed in 2007, 2010 and 2015, respectively. Fisher and Cohen have always remained private about their personal lives, and haven't revealed their kids' names.

In late July 2023, Fisher shared multiple photos to Instagram of a trip she and Baron Cohen took to Greece during that summer, including one snap of the pair sharing a kiss and embracing.

"GREECE ... You definitely don’t sock!” she wrote in a caption to the post, referencing a pair of socks she showed off in another photo within the carousel.
