‘Sex and the City’ Star Reveals Shallow Reason She Didn’t Want to Dump Alec Baldwin
HOUSE OF CARDS
Kristin Davis, not much unlike the Upper East Side character she played on the show, prioritized materialistic reasons for not wanting to break up with Alec Baldwin.
Kristin Davis, who famously played doe-eyed Charlotte York on Sex and the City, just revealed why she didn’t want to break up with her early 2000s beau, Alec Baldwin. The 60-year-old actress dated Baldwin, 66, back in their hey day after he had starred in movies like Beetlejuice and Glengarry Glen Ross. The pair ultimately didn’t work out. But before breaking things off, Davis turned to Sex and the City star Sarah Jessica Parker, who writes a sex column on the show, for advice. Finally, Davis has confessed the “embarrassing” reason she was hesitant to break up with Baldwin on Rob Lowe’s podcast Literally! on Thursday. “This is the thing–Alec Baldwin was so rich by the time I dated Alec Baldwin, okay? Can I just say that straight out?” Davis told Lowe. “Like, one of the best things about Alec Baldwin when I dated him is that he had the most incredible house in Amagansett.” The actress recalled this very house was harder to part with than Baldwin. “I remember, I was at work and I was like: ‘Sarah Jessica, I just don’t know if it’s gonna work out with Alec, but I just really love that house,’ which is literally one of the only times I have felt that way, do you know?” she admitted. “But I’m like: ‘I don’t wanna break up with this person because I like his house!’ It’s so embarrassing to say that out loud, but it’s true.” Baldwin had purchased the estate Davis was lovestruck by for $1.7 million in 1995. Over the years, the 30 Rock alum tinkered with the house and expanded it before putting it on the market in 2022. This was following legal troubles he faced after fatally shooting cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of his western Rust the previous year.
