Sarah Jessica Parker hasn’t spoken to Chris Noth since the sexual assault allegations
Parker says she's not "ready" to discuss the controversy circling her Sex And The City co-star
Aux News Chris Noth
In a new interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Sarah Jessica Parker addressed the sexual assault allegations against her Sex And The City co-star Chris Noth. Parker, who also served as a producer on the reboot And Just Like That…, had previously released a statement on the issue alongside fellow stars Kristin Davis and Cynthia Nixon.
Despite the months that have passed since multiple women came forward to accuse Noth of misconduct, Parker seemed unprepared to field questions on the subject. Asked her reaction to the controversy as a producer, she told THR: “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.”
She continued uncertainly, “I should have worked on this because I’m just… it’s just…” When asked outright if she’d spoken to Noth since that time, she said: “No.”
Shortly after the allegations were made public, Parker, Davis, and Nixon released a statement that read: “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.”
For his part, Noth released a strong denial: “The accusations against me made by individuals I met years, even decades, ago are categorically false. These stories could’ve been from 30 years ago or 30 days ago—no always means no—that is a line I did not cross.”
He continued, “The encounters were consensual. It’s difficult not to question the timing of these stories coming out. I don’t know for certain why they are surfacing now, but I do know this: I did not assault these women.”
Big had already been killed off on And Just Like That…, but additional scenes with the character were cut from the show’s finale. He was also dropped from the A3 Artist’s Agency and removed from his role on CBS’s The Equalizer.

I’ll never forget: My Mom asked me my opinion on the allegations a few months ago. Her reaction was “But he’s so handsome why would he do that?” – lol
Old people make the world go ‘round. Such a joy.
Is this really an old people thing, though? I see all ages of people online defending shitty celebs simply because they really like them and can’t imagine them doing anything awful.

The Kids Aren’t Alright
The world is chock full of people who at no point in their emotional development were encouraged, much less expected – to be able to put themselves in the shoes of somebody else. A common one: “But why are they unhappy? They have money. If I had money, I’d be happy.” This makes it impossible for them to understand what motivates different people and causes them to insert context and detail into peoples’ actions in order to make sense within the confines of their own limited experience.
Michael Jackson fans are the worst.
Certainly curious on the general ages of the recent Depp Stans. Bots excluded. I imagine it’s a fairly broad spectrum.
Bruh, I remember back when Chris Brown first hit Rhianna and he GAINED fangirls. It’s not exclusive to boomers.

50 Shades of Grey syndrome. That book flew of the shelves and I was thinking do you realize what he does to her? These were women’s fantasies come to life! And they want empowerment?
Old people say the darndest things!
Cuz like all these other cretins he’s got no game.
Because sex isn’t the point. Lording power over someone is.
*Sighs. Tiredly. Oh to be so inexperienced.*
Aside from whether or no he’s sober now, in Noth’s particular case, there has been allusive and very direct reportage of a years-long heavy drinking problem for awhile.Drunk men can do bad stuff.
Handsome, famous drunk men who may have developed entitlements do more.
Handsome famous entitled drunk men before MeToo had little worry of repercussions, and LOTS of protection…so why not?
Because why would she ask her friend for his side of the story.
Because of the inherent incentive to lie?
“I’m not going to ask my friend for their side of the story because of the inherent incentive to lie” is fucking stupid.
“Because why would she ask her friend for his side of the story.”
Are all your former co-workers friends?
Kim Catrall certainly isn’t SJP’s friend, why would you expect that Noth is?
Kim Cattrall looks better & better for walking away from Sex & the City
Sounds like you fell, pell mell, for Kim Catrall…
Kim Kim Kim CattrallYou’ve never made a bad film.Oh, what the hell,Ring my bell,Let’s go to the Dells,Our relationship will gel.I like your smell,You’re really swell
Read that last line as “You really swell”. True.
Sounds like something Princess Carolyn would say.
Funny enough, neither have I!
There’s other stuff in the article, but boy is this a dumb headline. I haven’t talked to a guy I worked with 18 months ago since the Chris Noth sexual assault allegations arose, either.
They need to keep trimming the cast through off-screen scandal, feud, or just making a character incredibly unlikeable, until the whole show is just a series of establishing shots of New York bars and brunch places.
With the Che Diaz comedy club act, without the sound of the audience, playing over each nyc shot.
This is sounding more and more like a slow transformation into Seinfeld.
Are people outside of the entertainment industry in constant contact with their former co-workers? Why is it always a story that people who used to work together haven’t spoken in a while?
She’s not gonna take it!
I didn’t think it was possible for Parker to get any uglier. My mistake.
Yes I suppose it would be inconvenient and distract from promoting her brand and her tv show
Famous Person A hasn’t spoken to Famous Person B since bad event happened.Wow, what a story. Light news day?
I’m a little disturbed with him being dropped by anybody without proof. What happened to innocent until proven guilty? And stuff from decades ago? Come on!
