A statement alongside the tennis pic posted on their Instagram yesterday read: “After a long tennis match lasting over 20 years, we are finally putting our racquets down.
“In 2023 we jointly filed to end our marriage.
“We have always prioritised our privacy and have been quietly working through this change.
“We forever share in our devotion and love for our children.

“We sincerely appreciate your respecting our family’s wish for privacy.”
The Sun understands Rebel’s claims, made in her memoir, and vehemently denied by him, were a catalyst for Isla, to publicly reveal the break-up.
And now Rebel, 44, has broken her silence on social media following the announcement.
Taking to her official Instagram account, the Pitch Perfect star promoted an upcoming event.
Australian native Rebel will sit down for an ‘in person with’ conversation discussing her controversial new memoir Rebel Rising.
She posted a link for fans to buy tickets to the live show, which takes place on Monday in Los Angeles.
In a follow-up, she posted a snap of the book and said: “UK and AUS momentarily delayed by an a**hole but not for long.”
Rebel writes in the book how it “felt like Sacha Baron Cohen had sexually harassed me” during filming in South Africa in 2016.
She had played Sacha’s girlfriend in action comedy Grimsby.
Rebel has claimed that while filming Grimsby, titled The Brothers Grimsby on its US release, the comic would “mention that he wanted me to go naked in a future scene” — which she said was in “no way essential” to the plot.
In the most shocking allegation, she says she was “lured” from her trailer into a concrete room with just a mattress on the floor and Sacha and his pals inside.
A rep for Sacha previously denied Rebel’s claims in a statement to TMZ.
The spokesperson said: “While we appreciate the importance of speaking out, these demonstrably false claims are directly contradicted by extensive detailed evidence.
“Including contemporaneous documents, film footage, and eyewitness accounts from those present before, during, and after the production of The Brothers Grimsby.”
