Kim Cattrall has revealed she has “no regrets” about publicly condemning her former Sex and the City co-star Sarah Jessica Parker.
During television appearances and in social media posts in 2017 and 2018, Cattrall appeared to confirm years of speculation about a feud between the pair, and demanded that “cruel” Parker stop communicating with her.
In a new interview to promote her new US TV series Filthy Rich, Cattrall declined to speak further on the matter and advised people to “Google it”.
“Everything is on Google, so I encourage you to Google it, about anything that I’ve said,” Cattrall told The Los Angeles Times. “I feel that that was then, and when I look at what’s going on around me, I just don’t have any regrets.”
While appearing on Piers Morgan’s Life Stories in 2017, Cattrall said that Parker “could have been nicer” about her refusal to take part in a third Sex and the City movie. She also added that the four stars of the show, which also included Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis, were “never friends”.
Cattrall went further in February 2018, following the death of her brother Chris. After Parker wrote a comment of condolence on Cattrall’s Instagram, Cattrall posted a photo of a message that read: “I don’t need your love or support at this tragic time @sarahjessicaparker.”
In the caption, Cattrall recalled a conversation with her mother, who allegedly asked: “When will [Parker], that hypocrite, leave you alone?” Cattrall then accused Parker of “exploiting our tragedy to restore [her] ‘nice girl’ persona”, adding: “Your continuous reaching out is a painful reminder of how cruel you really were then and now.”
Prior to Cattrall’s 2018 Instagram post, Parker said she was “heartbroken” by Cattrall’s claims that the pair were “never friends”.
Despite her statements on Parker, Cattrall told The Los Angeles Times that she still has good memories of her time on Sex and the City.

She also revealed that she has kept a diary used by her character Samantha on the show, adding: “It had all of her credit cards and bills that have her apartment on it.”
