Rebel Wilson looked sensational as she headed to her show at the Manchester Opera House on Friday, just days after her former co-star Sacha Baron Cohen broke his silence over her claims in her memoir about his behaviour.

The actress, 44, was seen wearing a glamorous red dress with an asymmetric neckline as she left her hotel in the city before fronting her show An Evening with Rebel Wilson, in which she was set to chat about her life and journey to success in Hollywood.

Australian star Rebel was seen beaming as she left the building, walking with her hand on her hip, while she completed her look by opting for a pair of black heels.

The screen siren appeared in good spirits, happily posing for pictures with fans ahead of her show.

It comes after Sacha broke his silence after Rebel's redacted memoir was released in the UK on Thursday.

The book was published in the US earlier this month, and features a chapter titled Sacha Baron Cohen And Other A**holes, where Rebel makes claims about Sacha's behaviour during the filming of the 2016 film Grimsby, which he has strongly denied.

However the UK copies feature the wording crudely blacked out due to what Rebel brands 'peculiarities' of English law.

In response to the book's UK release, Baron Cohen's legal team has deemed this decision by publishers HarperCollins a vindication, following the creator's strong denial of Wilson's claims.

'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,' the statement, presented in Deadline, said.

'Printing falsehoods is against the law in the UK and Australia; this is not a ''peculiarity'' 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.'

After redeacted edition was finally published, publisher HarperCollins confirmed to MailOnline that details had been removed.

They told MailOnline: 'The book contains some redactions in chapter 23 on pages 216, 217, 218 and 221, as well as an explanatory note at the beginning of the chapter.'

After the allegations were detailed in the US version of the book, Sacha's spokesperson said: 'While we appreciate the importance of speaking out, these demonstrably false claims are directly contradicted by extensive detailed evidence...

'Including contemporaneous documents, film footage, and eyewitness accounts from those present before, during and after the production of The Brothers Grimsby.'
