When asked if that was the 'blueprint', for her separation, Isla said: 'That's the dream'. Isla and Sacha both live in London where they co-parent their three children, Olive, 17, and Elula, 14, and son, Montgomery, 9. Isla, who has now been single for almost two years, was also asked whether she feels ready to dip her toe back into the dating pool. Jokily hyperventilating, she said: 'That's not on my to-do list. I'm not ready to think about any of that.'.

Isla spent her New Year's Eve at Buchinger Wilhelmi, a clinic for 'therapeutic fasting, integrative medicine and inspiration'. Sharing images of the retreat to Instagram, the former Home and Away star appeared to be in a state of bliss as she roamed the grounds of the clinic.

She said: 'This has been the most incredible way to spend the new year. Six days at Buchinger!'.

'Therapeutic fasting, integrative medicine, inspiring treatments for the spirit and soul. Every kind of therapy cocooned in warmth and care—the kindest hands.

Hinting at how the experience had helped her heal, Isla said: 'Everything you repress just comes out, all at once.'. Wellness packages at Buchinger start at about AUD$5,649 for a standard room, but can get up to AUD$32,035 for a week's stay. While it's unclear which suite Isla chose to reside in during her time there, it appears she opted in for the Time Out package. The website describes the package as 'a week devoted to recuperation and regeneration.

On her final days at the retreat, Isla thanked her 'supportive' friends in the wake of her recent divorce. She shared a poignant post to finish off her 2024 by showing 'gratitude' to her loved ones. 'I'm ending 2024 with gratitude,' Isla began her post. Last month it was revealed that Isla had started the year by checking into a luxury wellness retreat on Lake Constance in Germany.

'For my family and old friends who have supported and loved me, to the new friends who have opened their hearts and homes to me and my children. 'And to those who kept shooting me texts to check in. I love you all and I wish you the happiest 2025.'. Isla and Sacha jointly filed to end their marriage in 2023 and publicly confirmed their separation in April 2024. Their statement read: 'After a long tennis match lasting over 20 years, we are finally putting our racquets down.

'In 2023 we jointly filed to end our marriage. We have always prioritised our privacy and have been quietly working through this change. 'We forever share in our devotion and love for our children. We sincerely appreciate your respecting our family's wish for privacy.'. The couple first met back in 2001 and tied the knot in 2010, with the end of their marriage coming just a few years after relocating their family to Australia.
