Sarah Jessica Parker may be known for her fashionista alter-ego, Carrie Bradshaw, but this working mother revels in the realities of everyday life with her son James, 7, and twin daughters Marion Loretta and Tabitha Hodge. She recently talked about her upcoming film Sex & the City 2 and life in her family in the December issue of Elle magazine.
Some highlights from the interview:
On her decision to use a surrogate to carry her twin daughters:
“I knew there would be lots of opinions about, ‘Well, why didn’t you adopt? Why didn’t you do this? Why didn’t you do that?’ and the truth of the matter is, it wasn’t one or the other for us. We had explored, and continue to explore all options, and this one just happened first. This isn’t the period at the end of the sentence.”
On being a hands-on mom:
“I love the smell of diapers; I even like when they’re wet and you smell them all warm liked a baked good. I love the smell of Balmex. Love it.”
On rumors of on-set friction with her Sex and the City co-star Kim Cattrall:
“I don’t think anybody wants to believe that I love Kim. I adore her. I wouldn’t have done the movie without her. Didn’t and wouldn’t.”
