Sarah Jessica Parker is promoting the second season of And Just Like That, the first three episodes of which are out now. Like the previous season, I’ve heard only negative buzz and do not know one person who is watching it. They’ll surely get some people to tune in for Kim Cattrall’s cameo, orchestrated on her own terms, but I digress.
SJP was on The Howard Stern show and was asked about how she met her husband of 25 years, Matthew Broderick. They were both seeing other people when they met in 1991 and they broke up with their partners for each other. It’s unclear if there was cheating involved. I went into this feeling skeptical, because after the way SJP treated Kim Cattrall I think she’s a trash person. If you told me she has an acrimonious marriage I would believe you. However I watched the video clip and you can tell that SJP admires and appreciates Matthew and that their relationship is solid. Outlets are running with the headline that they’ve never spent a night apart, which she does say, but then she clarifies that they’ve had to do that for work and family illness, so it’s not quite accurate. Here are some more quotes from People and that clip is below.
During an appearance on SiriusXM’s The Howard Stern Show, the 58-year-old Sex and the City alum got candid about how she met her husband Matthew Broderick and why she hasn’t been able to be apart from him ever since.
“We were both seeing other people, so it was illegal, and we stayed away from one another,” she said, explaining the circumstances in which they had met. “We understood that we had to do right by the other people and break up officially.”
Parker recalled, “We had our first official date on March 8 of 1992 and we’ve been together ever since.”
The actress added that the couple have been inseparable and have “never spent a night apart since then, with the exception of work on location, or his mother was ill for a bit so he went to take care of her, but from that first night, we’ve never been apart.”
Parker spouted off the qualities that attracted her most to Broderick, 61, as well as his unique quirks like riding messenger bikes with no brakes and holding onto buses.
“I liked his person very much. He’s so smart, he’s so funny, I like this choice of friends, the way he was living in New York, what was important to him, how he kind of traveled around the city,” she gushed. “Really smart and really talented and he was, I thought, so beautiful and handsome and charming.”
“I love being home in New York,” Parker declared. “I wanted to build a life here and he was born and raised in the West Village, literally — he’s never lived north of 11th Street.”

Alright, so SJP and Matthew Broderick have a great marriage, they both love New York City, and it sounds like they have a happy home life. Kaiser covered an interview they did last year with THR together, about a Broadway play they were working on, and came away with the same impression. Color me surprised, but it’s good for them and for their kids. They have son James, 20 (!), and twins Marion and Tabitha, now 13. Those kids grew up so fast.
