Actress Cynthia Nixon, famously known for her role in Sex and the City, was full of joy while attending the French Open with her spouse, Christine Marinoni, in Paris last Friday.

The 59-year-old actress exuded casual elegance by choosing a stylish dark brown striped blouse and oversized straw sun hat.

At the same time, her spouse opted for a casual look with a white polo shirt and a baseball cap, while they both enthusiastically applauded and cheered together.

I had the pleasure of spending a delightful day out with my dear colleagues, Sarita Choudhury and Kristin Davis, from And Just Like That, following the highly-anticipated release of our latest series on Friday.

In a chic outfit, Sarita, aged 58, donned a fashionable white shirt with stripes and a summer hat, contrastingly, Kristin, at 60, chose a daring black-and-white checkered summer top for the season.

2001 was when Cynthia and Christine first formed a friendship, then, following Cynthia’s divorce from Danny Mozes in 2003, they began their romantic relationship in 2004.

She’s stated that she shares all aspects with her Sex and the City character, as her personal life story, moving from a long-term male partnership to marrying a woman, closely resembles Miranda’s journey in the series.

At their encounter, Christine held positions as both a community organizer and educator within the Alliance for Quality Education. Over time, Cynthia, an established activist and organizer, took on the role of representing the alliance publicly.

Christine was Cynthia’s first relationship with a woman.

In the beginning of our relationship, Christine often anticipated some hidden flaw or problem with us being together, expecting me to worry about potential impacts on my career or personal identity, as though I had been blind to her gender all along, she shared with Elle.

‘And then she met my mother, and that was when she stopped worrying about it.’

However, Cynthia’s representative had some reservations about making their same-sex relationship a public matter.

He repeatedly asserted, “Your life is personal, and that’s the end of it.” Yet, we persisted in questioning, “Isn’t there more to discuss? Can’t we progress beyond this point?” We were at the playground with the children, and pictures were taken of us, but when asked if a particular person was just a friend, he replied.

Cynthia fired that publicist and her next one encouraged her to go public with her relationship.

The couple got engaged in 2009 at a rally supporting the legalisation of same-sex marriage.

On May 27th, 2012, they got married in New York State after gay marriage became legal there. Their son, Max Ellington Nixon-Marinoni, was born in 2011, conceived by the Sex and the City costume designer, Michael Growler.

In addition, Cynthia is a mother to not one but two kids, both of whom are from her previous marriage with Seph (age 28) and his sibling Charles (age 22).

The star disclosed that Seph and Max are fortunate enough to be parented by four individuals – herself, Marinoni, Mozes, and his spouse – whom they all address as their mothers.

The latest installment of And Just Like That is being praised as a step up from the initial two seasons.

According to Claudia Connell from The Mail, And Just Like That – the follow-up series to Sex and the City – received four stars. Her review states that after two underwhelming seasons, the show has now found its rhythm, a tune reminiscent of Carrie Bradshaw’s stylish shoes she wouldn’t shy away from wearing.

According to The Guardian’s review, after a couple of unsuccessful seasons, there appears to be a hint of the original charm from Sex and the City in the latest episodes of the HBO spin-off.

During its third attempt, there are indications that it’s finding its rhythm and balance, much like a high-heeled dancer.

There’s a lot more to laugh at here, and we certainly plan to do so, yet there’s a hint of the original charm that makes it a bittersweet treat for reminiscing.

Meanwhile The Independent agreed saying that the series had ‘finally started to find its groove’. 

In their three-star review, they mentioned that the transformation, from the initially contentious remake to an innocuous series, may result in less online conversation, but it leads to a much more enjoyable viewing experience.

According to IndieWire, it appears that ‘Sex and the City’s sequel series, produced by Michael Patrick King, is finding its rhythm in the third season.

A well-trodden path, if left unused before, is one that has been smoothed out by the series ‘Sex and the City.’

Collider, Time Magazine and Mamamia also gave positive reviews.
