The Confessions of a Shopaholic star, 48, appears to take a playful jab at her split from Borat star Sacha Baron Cohen53, as she tries to set herself up with a single dad in the ad.

”Dad, I made a new friend. Can she come for a playdate sometime?” the child tells her handsome Kiwi father.
“I’d love that,” he replies, before Fisher cheekily adds: “How about now?”
Fans quickly latched onto those three little words, which seemed to be a subtle nod to Fisher’s sudden split from longtime husband Cohen earlier this year.
“Great thanks for inviting me,” she adds in the commercial, laughing.
