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

The pair first met in 2001 at a party in Sydney, Australia. They got engaged in 2004 and welcomed their first child in 2007. Following a six-year engagement, they married in a private ceremony in March 2010. Two more children were born in 2010 and 2015.

The news of their split comes a week after Rebel Wilson revealed that the "Borat" star is the actor she refers to as "a massive a**hole" in her upcoming memoir, "Rebel Rising."

Baron Cohen has denied Wilson's claims.
