Sarah Jessica Parker sat down and talked about a few of Carrie Bradshaw’s most iconic outfits from the pink tutu to her signature big flower_  by [Cady Lang](https://time.com/author/cady-lang/)  ## Cady Lang Feb 1, 2018 4:39 PM UTC  by [Cady Lang](https://time.com/author/cady-lang/)  ## Cady Lang Feb 1, 2018 4:39 PM UTC Just like her famous on-screen alter ego[ Carrie Bradshaw](http://time.com/collection-post/3103783/sex-and-the-city/), [Sarah Jessica Parker](http://time.com/4910597/sarah-jessica-parker-eclipse/) isn’t shying away from delving deep into her emotions about the relationships in her life, including the now-notorious tension between her and fellow [_Sex and the City_](http://time.com/4955992/sjp-nyc-tour/) star, [scatting](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1S37dLbR9WA) impresario [Kim Cattrall](http://motto.time.com/4359624/kim-cattrall-insomnia/), who played the irrepressible Samantha Jones. During an appearance on _Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen_, Parker revealed that she was “just heartbroken” after hearing Cattrall’s [recent comments to Piers Morgan](http://people.com/movies/kim-cattrall-sarah-jessica-parker-satc-3/) that Parker could have been “nicer” when speaking about her of late and and that she and the cast of _SATC_ have “never been friends.” “That whole week…I found it really upsetting,” Parker said. “That’s not the way I recall our experience. So, it’s sad, but…I always think that what ties us together is this singular experience. It was a professional experience, but it became personal because it was years and years of our lives. I’m hoping that that sort of eclipses anything that’s been recently spoken. That many years spent doing something so special that people had a connection with is such a privilege.” Both Cattrall and Parker have joked about [replacing Cattrall as Samantha with people like Ellen Degeneres](http://time.com/5110200/sex-and-the-city-kim-cattrall-ellen-degeneres-samantha/) who tried out for the role on her eponymous show; Cohen also later “auditoned” for the role while suggesting that Sharon Stone might be a good candidate, something that Parker gamely entertained, telling him that he wasn’t the first to suggest it to her. As for whether or not the franchise would kill Cattrall’s character and move on to making a third movie, Parker had an elusive answer. “I think once everybody has thoroughly experienced the grieving process, then Michael Patrick \[King\] can go back and ponder what he might want to do and how he might want to proceed,” she said. “That’s the most clear answer I’ve given yet.” Watch the full clip below. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/5128638/sarah-jessica-parker-kim-cattrall-friendship-andy-cohen-watch-what-happens-live/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/5128638/sarah-jessica-parker-kim-cattrall-friendship-andy-cohen-watch-what-happens-live/"},"headline":"Sarah Jessica Parker Discusses Her Relationship with Kim Cattrall on Andy Cohen","datePublished":"2018-02-01T16:39:48.000Z","dateModified":"2026-08-04T07:47:20.624Z","description":"She was \"heartbroken\" when Cattrall said they were never friends","url":"https://time.com/5128638/sarah-jessica-parker-kim-cattrall-friendship-andy-cohen-watch-what-happens-live/","keywords":["Newsfeed","celebrities","viral","watch what happens live","andy cohen","sarah jessica parker"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Cady Lang","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/cady-lang/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/5128638/sarah-jessica-parker-kim-cattrall-friendship-andy-cohen-watch-what-happens-live/","name":"Sarah Jessica Parker Discusses Her Relationship with Kim Cattrall on Andy Cohen"}}]},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"Sarah Jessica Parker Talks About Carrie Bradshaw's Most Iconic Outfits","description":"Sarah Jessica Parker sat down and talked about a few of Carrie Bradshaw’s most iconic outfits from the pink tutu to her signature big flower","thumbnailUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/v2/media/loa2F2mc/poster.jpg?width=720","uploadDate":"2016-10-14T17:06:31.000Z","contentUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/manifests/loa2F2mc.m3u8","embedUrl":"https://time.com/5128638/sarah-jessica-parker-kim-cattrall-friendship-andy-cohen-watch-what-happens-live/","duration":"PT1M12S","potentialAction":{"@type":"SeekToAction","target":"https://time.com/5128638/sarah-jessica-parker-kim-cattrall-friendship-andy-cohen-watch-what-happens-live/?jw_start={seek_to_second_number}","startOffset-input":"required name=seek_to_second_number"}}] ```
