Sarah Jessica Parker hasn’t spoken to her Sex and the City co-star Chris Noth since he was accused of sexual assault in December.
Shortly after the Sex and the City revival series And Just Like That… premiered in December, Noth was accused of sexual assault by two women, prompting another two to come forward with similar allegations.
Parker, who played Noth’s on-screen love interest in the shows, was asked in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter how she reacted to the claims as a producer of the series.
“I don’t even know if I’m ready to talk about it, but I don’t think… I wasn’t reacting as a producer. I should have worked on this (a response) because I’m just… it’s just…,” she replied. The journalist then asked if she had spoken to him since and she said, “No”.
After the allegations hit headlines, Parker and her co-stars Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis issued a joint statement on social media in support of the women.
“We are deeply saddened to hear the allegations against Chris Noth. We support the women who have come forward and shared their painful experiences. We know it must be a very difficult thing to do and we commend them for it,” their statement read.
Noth’s planned appearance in the season finale of And Just Like That… was scrapped over the scandal, while he was dismissed from The Equalizer series and his Peloton advert was pulled.
The 67-year-old vehemently denied the claims, calling them “categorically false”. He insisted the encounters were consensual and said in a statement, “I did not assault these women.”
