The encounters were consensual.”At the time the allegations were raised, Sex and the City stars Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis spoke out publicly in support of the women who have claimed Noth sexually assaulted them.“We are deeply saddened to hear the allegations against Chris Noth,” read the trio’s joint statement, shared on Instagram. “We support the women who have come forward and shared their painful experiences.”They added: “We know it must be a very difficult thing to do and we commend them for it.”This article originally appeared on Fox News and was reproduced with permission
