Hollywood prankster Sacha Baron-Cohen and his wife, Isla Fisher, appear to have moved from Los Angeles to Australia for good.
The Borat star, 49, and Wedding Crashers actress, 44, took a major and seemingly lifelong milestone by enrolling their children in a school in Sydney, which happens to be the town where they met for the first time in 2002.
The move would make them the most high-profile Hollywood couple to move to Down Under since Chris Hemsworth and Elsa Pataky moved to Byron Bay with their three children in 2014.

Sacha and Isla, who married in 2010, share three children together, Olive, 12, Elula, nine, and Montgomery, five.
On Thursday, Isla was spotted picking up her children from their new school after working on her laptop at a nearby cafe.
The former Home and Away star kept things casual in a pink hoodie, which she teamed with a pair of ripped jeans.
She completed her look with slip-on moccasins and oversized sunglasses.

Until recently, the notoriously private family lived in Los Angeles.
But after the filming of Sacha’s latest mock documentary Borat Subsequent Moviefilm, it’s unclear if he still has work going on in Los Angeles – especially amid the Covid-19 pandemic.
Meanwhile, Isla, who grew up in Perth from the age of six, has always dreamed of raising her children in Australia.

Big move: Elsa Pataky (left) and Chris Hemsworth (right) moved to Byron Bay in 2014 because they were looking for a ‘quieter life’ for their children
She told Marie Claire in 2018: ‘I have this secret fantasy of slowing down, moving to Byron Bay, getting off the grid and sitting on the sand with a Vegemite sandwich. ”
The Scooby-Doo star added that it is “ not easy ” to raise kids in Los Angeles, saying: “ There isn’t really a culture of bringing your kids to dinners or in the restaurant after 6 p.m.
“I tend to entertain at home because I want to be with my family – it’s easier to put your kids to bed and have a wine with friends.
Isla herself had a wonderfully “ outdoor ” upbringing alongside her four siblings.

Of particular importance: Isla and Sacha first met at a party in Sydney in 2002
She started her career playing Shannon Reed in the Australian soap opera Home and Away in the 90s, and has since starred in major Hollywood movies such as Now You See Me and The Great Gatsby.
Meanwhile, her husband has long been in the headlines for his controversial films, with this year’s Borat Subsequent Moviefilm being his most shocking film to date.
In the film, Donald Trump’s lawyer Rudy Giuliani was sadly caught in what appeared to be a compromising position with a young actress posing as a journalist.
The president was then asked whether or not he had concerns about the White House security breaches.
Trump replied: ‘I can’t find it [Cohen] funny. For me, it’s a creep.
Sacha took to Twitter to respond to the president, writing: ‘Donald – I appreciate the free publicity for Borat! I admit, I don’t find you funny either.
But yet the whole world is laughing at you. I’m still looking for people to play racist buffoons, and you will need a job after January 20. Let’s talk about it!
Daily Mail Australia has reached out to representatives for Sacha and Isla for comment.
