Which actor did Sarah Jessica Parker marry in 1997?

The story behind the answer

Sarah Jessica Parker married actor Matthew Broderick in 1997.

Parker and Broderick met through the New York theater scene in the early 1990s. Both had established stage careers before becoming internationally famous for screen work: Parker as Carrie Bradshaw in Sex and the City and Broderick through films and Broadway productions.

They married on May 19, 1997, in a ceremony at the Angel Orensanz Synagogue in Manhattan. The wedding was deliberately low-key, and Parker wore a black dress rather than a traditional white bridal gown.

The couple have three children. Their son James Wilkie was born in 2002, and twin daughters Marion and Tabitha were born through a surrogate in 2009. Broderick’s Broadway career includes his acclaimed role in The Producers.
