“I thought that I would never hit 40.
I drank a lot as a teenager,” she toldParadein a 2008 interview.
“It became a real problem for me.”

Sadly, Garson died in 2021 following a diagnosis of pancreatic cancer.
The message read: “In memory of our beloved Willie Garson.”
He didn’t want us to know."
In 2023, Davis addressed Garson’s death again on what would’ve been his 59th birthday.
“I celebrate all that he has left behind,” she wrote onInstagram.
“I’ve had to get them dissolved and I’ve been ridiculed relentlessly.
And I have shed tears about it.
It’s very stressful.”
She added, “It’s so sad.
We have enough problems as it is.”
“If you didn’t you were kind of left out.”
“I’d love to find someone to fall in love with.
I’m not as traditional as Charlotte,” she admitted.
“I’m not completely marriage-obsessed like Charlotte was.”
And this bias hasn’t come just from industry bosses but also from members of the public.
“There would be articles that would have body-shaming in them.”
“And now, there are articles that talk about our faces.”
Ageism is not exclusive to the actresses who starred in “Sex and the City.”

More than 50% of women will report hair loss as they get older.
This is especially true for women over 40 or those who have experienced menopause.
Kristin Davis has been open about her own struggles with hair loss and thinning.
“My hair just was not what it used to be,” she toldWWDin an interview.
But despite always looking effortless to style, Davis has admitted this was never the case for her hair.
“[People are] just hurling bombs at you.
It makes me angry.”
She discussed how critics have continued to discuss her appearance in unfavorable ways.
However, now she’s confident enough to tell everyone to back off.
F*** you people, like, come over here and do it better.'"
I felt like it wasn’t a great fit."
Then, Davis landed the part that would change her career forever.
It was also a role her manager, Dave Fleming, wholeheartedly believed she was right for.
“She was Charlotte.
People love her.”
One of Charlotte’s children was named Rose, while the other was named Lily.
I didn’t even consciously [realize it], not at all, not at all."
Isn’t it weird?
I think it was lodged unconsciously."
She is a white woman who adopted Black children, and some reactions have been overwhelmingly negative.
And you haven’t personally been through it.
It’s a big issue."
Still, that’s not to say that the actress doesn’t crave companionship.
However, she admitted that this contrasts with the partners she had previously been attracted to.
Davis' openness includes admitting her fears, specifically about aging.
Unfortunately, for actresses, this happens all too often.
In a 2022 interview with New Beauty, she discussed her feelings about unfair comparisons to her younger self.
“If I was from a regular life, I would feel fine; I would feel great!
