Chris Noth has addressed his public criticism of his former co-star, Sarah Jessica Parker.

The actors famously played love interests Mr. Big and Carrie Bradshaw in Sex and the City, which aired from 1998 to 2004.

They also appeared together in the two films based on the hit HBO series.

Noth made his true feelings about his on-screen partner public after Parker received the Golden Globes’ Carol Burnett Award on January 6, days before the official awards ceremony on January 12.

The honorary award is presented each year to an actor who has made “outstanding contributions to television on or off the screen.”

On January 9, Noth posted a picture of himself at the gym with the caption, “F&@k new years – LETS GO!!!!”

“You mean f**k SJP & her award right? Lol,” commented one Instagram user.

The actor responded to the comment, bluntly stating, “Right.”

“What’d I miss?” a confused user asked, while another accused the actor of being “bitter” after he was written off the Sex and the City sequel, And Just Like That…

Taking to Instagram on Wednesday (January 14), Noth appeared to backtrack on his comment, describing it as “sarcastic.”

He wrote, “My off the cuff slightly sarcastic response to a comment on the internet seems to have caused a tempest in a teapot.

“It is not news. It is not worth all this discussion. It is a waste of time in a world where there are more important things to worry about.”

In the first episode of And Just Like That…, it is revealed that Mr. Big and protagonist Carrie Bradshaw had married and were living in New York City.

However, Noth’s character soon suffers a fatal heart attack while riding a Peloton—a creative decision intended to give Carrie a new narrative arc.

Mr. Big was reportedly slated to appear in the Season 1 finale during a fantasy sequence, but his scene was cut after s*xual as*ault allegations were made against Noth.

The accusations, shared by The Hollywood Reporter in 2021, came from two women who claimed they met the actor in 2004 in Los Angeles and 2015 in New York City.

Noth denied the allegations that he r*ped the two women, calling them “categorically false” and insisting the encounters were consensual.

“These stories could’ve been from 30 years ago or 30 days ago — no always means no — that is a line I did not cross,” he stated.

“It’s difficult not to question the timing of these stories coming out. I don’t know for certain why they are surfacing now, but I do know this: I did not as*ault these women.”

A third woman later came forward with similar accusations against Noth in an article published by The Daily Beast.

The tech executive claimed the 71-year-old as*aulted her in 2010 when she was working as a hostess and lounge singer at a restaurant in Manhattan at age 18.

Noth, who is married to Tara Lynn Wilson, denied the claims. “The story is a complete fabrication, and the alleged accounts detailed throughout read like a piece of bad fiction,” a representative for the actor said.

“As Chris stated yesterday, he has and would never cross that line.”

Following the allegations, CBS dropped the Golden Globe-nominated star from his starring role in the crime series The Equalizer.

SJP, who shared a set with Noth for more than six years, has not responded to his latest social media comment.

In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, however, she confirmed that she cut ties with the actor following the allegations made against him.

When asked if she had spoken with her former co-star since the accusations came to light in December 2021, the actress simply responded, “No.”

That year, Parker and other And Just Like That… cast members released a statement expressing their support for the women who had accused Noth.

“We are deeply saddened to hear the allegations against Chris Noth,” the message read.

“We support the women who have come forward and shared their painful experiences. We know it must be a very difficult thing to do and we commend them for it.”

The statement was signed by Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon, and Kristin Davis.

“A simple apology would be enough,” one social media user commented amid the feud between the former co-stars
