Comic actor Sacha Baron Cohen may not have much to laugh about these days.

The “Borat” star, 36, has stalled his marriage to Australian actress Isla Fisher due to religious issues, according to Britain’s Daily Mail.

Cohen has been waiting for his fiance Fisher, 32, to convert to Judaism, a process which is taking longer than expected. After the birth of their daughter Olive last year, Fisher was supposed to have devoted time to studying the Torah and being a mom. But things have reportedly gone much slower than planned, in part, due to Fisher’s career.

Cohen’s mother is allegedly at odds with the Aussie beauty since she quickly returned to work after Olive’s birth and spent most of the summer filming “Confessions of a Shopaholic.” A source close to the family described their relationship as tense.

On the other hand, the “Ali G” actor has avoided trouble at home by focusing his energy on his new reality-based movie, “Bruno.” The same source reported that Baron Cohen is not worried about the strained relationship between his bride-to-be and mother and is “happy taking his time to get married the same way he was happy having a long engagement.”

Despite the current trials, sources say Fisher is devoted to sticking things out with Cohen and his mother for the long run.

Fisher’s publicist would not say whether the couple has set a date.
