Sacha Baron Cohen and Isla Fisher's wedding on hold

Sacha Baron Cohen and fiancee Isla Fisher have been forced to postpone their wedding over religious issues.

The Hollywood-based couple, who welcomed a daughter last year, originally planned to tie the knot later this summer.

But they have decided to delay the nuptials because Isla, 32, has yet to convert to the Ali G star's faith of Judaism.

A source said: 'Isla was supposed to spend her time after giving birth hard at work on her Torah studies, and that's gone far slower than expected.

'It's very much frustrated her future in-laws, especially Sacha's parents, who were really hoping for a wedding this summer.'

For Isla's part, the actress is said to be looking forward to becoming a Cohen.

The source said: 'No matter what Sacha's mother throws at her, Isla isn't going to be scared away from the relationship or the family.

'You really get the sense that her devotion to Sacha is total, even if she's stalled a little bit on her Jewish studies. She loves sharing her life with this guy.'
