Rebel Wilson's new memoir, 'Rebel Rising,' has been making waves since its release in the US. The book delves into Wilson's personal life, touching on topics such as her late loss of virginity, struggles with weight loss pressures in Hollywood, and allegations of harassment from actor Sacha Baron Cohen.
While the book is already available in the US, its publication in Australia and the UK has faced delays. Originally scheduled for release earlier this week, the launch was postponed to align with Wilson's upcoming press tours.
HarperCollins, the book's publisher, confirmed the rescheduled release date for the UK on April 25. However, the Australian release date remains uncertain, with HarperCollins indicating a potential delay compared to the UK launch.
Wilson hinted on social media that the delay may not be solely due to press tour arrangements, suggesting external factors at play. Despite this, specific details regarding the cause of the delay have not been officially disclosed.
Wilson's claims of harassment by Baron Cohen during the filming of 'The Brothers Grimsby' have sparked controversy. Wilson described feeling 'scared' by Baron Cohen's alleged demands, while Baron Cohen's team refuted her account, presenting statements from crew members contradicting Wilson's version of events.
Amidst the ongoing dispute, Baron Cohen announced his divorce from Isla Fisher, adding another layer of intrigue to the unfolding events.
