Which actress did actor Matthew Broderick marry in 1997?
Answer
Sarah Jessica Parker
Answer
Sarah Jessica Parker
Matthew Broderick married actress Sarah Jessica Parker in 1997.
Broderick and Parker were introduced by Parker’s brothers, actors Timothy Britten Parker and Pippin Parker. They began dating in the early 1990s and became one of New York’s most recognizable acting couples. Both had established careers in theatre as well as on screen.
The couple married on May 19, 1997, in a ceremony at the Angel Orensanz Synagogue in Manhattan. Parker wore a black wedding dress, a choice that later became one of the most discussed details of the ceremony. They have three children: a son born in 2002 and twin daughters born in 2009 through surrogacy.
Parker is especially associated with Carrie Bradshaw in Sex and the City, while Broderick is known for Ferris Bueller’s Day Off and The Producers. Costarring or appearing in the same entertainment circles does not make Kim Cattrall, Patricia Arquette or Diane Keaton Parker’s spouse.
