Portions of <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/rebel-wilson">Rebel Wilson</a>’s memoir, which mention alleged incidents involving <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/sacha-baron-cohen">Sacha Baron Cohen</a>, have been redacted in both the U.K. and Australia.
The 44-year-old “Pitch Perfect” star released her <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/books">tell-all book</a>, Rebel Rising, on April 2 in the United States. Publication in several other countries has been delayed thus far.
A spokesperson for HarperCollins confirmed the redacted portions, per <a href="https://people.com/rebel-wilson-memoir-published-in-uk-with-sacha-baron-cohen-allegations-redacted-8638802">People</a>.
“We are publishing every page, but for legal reasons, in the U.K. edition, we are redacting most of one page with some other small redactions and an explanatory note,” the statement said. “Those sections are a very small part of a much bigger story and we’re excited for readers to know Rebel’s story when the book is released.”
Wilson had written about alleged interactions with Cohen on the set of the film “The Brothers Grimsby” in 2016. The actress claimed Cohen harassed her about performing naked and told her it would be “really funny” to engage in other lewd acts.
“Then in the last scene…he was like, ‘Rebel can you just stick your finger up my butt?’ And I went, ‘What do you mean Sacha? That’s not in the script,’” Wilson said. “And he’s like, ‘Look, I’ll just pull down my pants, you just stick your finger up my butt, it’ll be a really funny bit.’”
Cohen denied Wilson’s allegations in a public statement at the time the book was released. The actor’s rep claimed the redactions proved the incidents didn’t happen.

&#8220;HarperCollins did not fact check this chapter in the book prior to publication and took the sensible but terribly belated step of deleting Rebel Wilson’s defamatory claims once presented with evidence that they were false,&#8221; Cohen’s spokesperson said.
&#8220;Printing falsehoods is against the law in the UK and Australia; this is not a &#8216;peculiarity&#8217; as Ms. Wilson said, but a legal principle that has existed for many hundreds of years. This is a clear victory for Sacha Baron Cohen and confirms what we said from the beginning — that this is demonstrably false, in a shameful and failed effort to sell books,&#8221; the statement continued.
