Sarah Jessica Parker reflects on Carrie Bradshaw’s journey with “And Just Like That…” to end

Sarah Jessica Parker reflects on the journey of her on-screen alter-ego Carrie Bradshaw now that it has been announced that the third season of the Sex and the City sequel And Just Like That … will be the last:

“She crossed streets, avenues, Rubicons, so it seemed. She broke hearts, heels, habits,” SJP wrote on Instagram. “She loved, lost, won, tripped, leaped, fell short and into puddles, aged, got wiser. She has made the hardest, worst and best decisions, traveled near and far for the new, the vintage, friends and love.”

“Changed homes, time zones, boyfriends, her mind, her shoes, her hair, but never her love and devotion to New York City. She had dates, drinks, boyfriends, a husband and truly great loves and romances,” SJP continued. “She hailed cabs, she ran in heels, and danced with Stanford. She told the truth and she lied. She typed, wondered, wrote, published, grieved, forgave, got stood up, stood strong. Stood out.”

She went on, “Devoted herself to hats, books, shoes, friends and the promise of a new day in her beloved city and the people she treasured most. She has worn shame, pride, honor, optimism and literally countless dresses, skirts, tutus. Held onto hands, hopes and the very best of people.”

“Miranda, Samantha and Charlotte, there will never be better friends and what great fortune for Carrie to come to know and love Seema and LTW, most divine new connections,” SJP wrote. “Carrie Bradshaw has dominated my professional heartbeat for 27 years. I think I have loved her most of all. I know others have loved her just as I have. Been frustrated, condemned and rooted for her. The symphony of all those emotions has been the greatest soundtrack and most consequential companion. Therefore the most sentimental and profound gratitude and lifetime of debt. To you all.

She continued, “MPK and I together recognized, as we have in the past, this chapter complete. AJLT was all joy, adventure, the greatest kind of hard work alongside the most extraordinary talent of 380 that includes all the brilliant actors who joined us. I am better for every single day I spent with you. It will be forever before I forget.”

“The whole thing. Thank you all, SJP concluded. “I love you so. I hope you love these final two episodes as much as we all do. Rabbit rabbit. Xxx, SJ”
