Sarah Jessica Parker confirms she dated Nicolas Cage before meeting husband Matthew Broderick
The 60-year-old And Just Like That star - who has James, 22, and 16-year-old twins Tabitha and Marion with husband Matthew Broderick - co-starred alongside the 61-year-old actor in the 1992 rom-com Honeymoon in Vegas.
And Sarah Jessica has revealed the pair did have a brief romance during filming before she met her spouse in 1991.
Appearing on Watch What Happens Live, host and close friend Andy Cohen asked her on Sunday's (13.07.25) episode if the gossip was true, to which she replied: 'Um, yes I did [date him]."
Cohen reacted: 'Oh wow. We've got some talking to do!'
During the chat, the Sex and the City actress also revealed she was the first to say "I love you" to 63-year-old Lion King star Matthew.
Meanwhile, Sarah Jessica recently admitted she thinks not being a 'Hollywood couple' has helped her marriage.
The couple tied the knot in 1997, and she believes not speaking much about her personal life and being under the radar in New York has been key to their long-lasting romance.
Asked the secret to her happy marriage, she told Britain's HELLO! magazine: 'Probably that I don't talk about it! It really is a secret.
'But maybe it's because we're not a Hollywood couple. We live in New York – maybe that's good.'
Sarah Jessica has also dated Michael J. Fox, Chris Penn, and Robert Downey Jr.

What is 'pebbling'? Dating experts explain and reveal why LGBTQ+ folks do it best
We often associate members of the animal kingdom with gay slang. Go to a gay bar and you're likely to spot bears, otters, cubs, and maybe even a silver fox or two. But now penguins have entered the dating vernacular. Well, not penguins themselves, but their very cute mating ritual. The new dating trend 'pebbling' is gaining traction online and is inspired by the Gentoo penguin's sweet love language, where male penguins gift female penguins with small pebbles to build their nests in a unique courting ritual. Humans looking for love aren't gifting each other rocks (unless maybe you're an LA lesbian giving a prospective partner some healing crystals), but they are sending small tokens of their affection throughout the day, like funny memes, a TikTok video that made you smile, or buying them their favorite snacks. This is 'pebbling.' But what exactly is this wholesome dating trend, why do people do it, and how does it show up in LGBTQ+ dating? To get to the bottom of it, PRIDE talked to Sofie Roos, a bisexual licensed sexologist and relationship therapist with over 18 years of experience. What is 'pebbling?' Danita Delimont/Shutterstock Penguins inspired the term 'pebbling' Named after the sweet penguin mating ritual, pebbling describes gifting someone you're dating with small presents, yummy treats, or even funny videos that made you think of them. While it's mostly used to refer to dating, people also do these small acts of kindness for friends and family. 'It can be to make your partner breakfast in the morning, doing the groceries, sending them a song you like and think they would enjoy as well, to buy your partner their favorite snack when they have a bad day, or to tag their name on a cute Instagram post that made you think of them,' Roos tells PRIDE. You can also pebble people you're crushing on as a way to leave a lasting impression. 'It can also be done to someone you're interested in to make them feel your love and interest for them,' which is a great way to 'make them fall for you.' What is the purpose of pebbling? Whether you're sending your long-distance partner a good morning text, or bringing home your lover's favorite treat after a hard day, or peppering them with your favorite memes to make the work day less grueling, people are pebbling as a way to make their loved one happy, and out of a desire to share things you think they would enjoy. According to Roos, these gifts and everyday moments of connection help build 'a stronger relationship and better intimacy.' 'By doing this, you show your partner that they truly matter, and make them feel it,' she explains. 'Because most people don't feel loved by the big actions such as a fancy date or an expensive vacation, but by often getting small gestures of love from their partner, and that's why pebbling is so great to implement in your relationship, or when dating!' How can it help communicate interest? Lightfield Studios/Shutterstock A man giving a gift Pebbling can be a charming way to flirt with someone in a way that feels more gentle and natural than telling someone you're interested or trying to flirt in a more overt way. 'If done right, then pebbling is a discreet and elegant way of making someone understand your interest for them, a way that doesn't feel too much or pushy,' Roos says. But you have to make sure the recipient of your small gifts understands why you're doing it and doesn't ignore these signs of interest because it isn't a grand gesture. 'For it to work, you must make the person you 'pebble really feel it, because otherwise it's easy that they don't notice, or that they reject you for just being kind,' she admits. When is it overkill? 'While pebbling can be very cute, it can also be a bit overkill, especially if doing it aggressively or too much early on when trying to get someone to like you,' Roos warns. Pebbling can quickly turn into toxic love bombing if you go too far. She says it should just be one 'tool' in a 'big tool box' full of other ways you shower your partner or crush with affection. 'Use pebbling with some delicacy, ideally in combination with other ways of showing interest, such as physically, by having great conversation and by asking them out,' Roos says. Are LGBTQ+ more likely to pebble? Vergani Fotografia/Shutterstock A lesbian who is pebbling by showing her girlfriend something on her phone. Pebbling may only be entering the zeitgeist now, but queer people have been using this technique for years, since it was a safe and more covert way of showing romantic interest or affection even when it wasn't safe to live out loud and proud. 'Generally, people within the LGBTQ+ community are better at showing love in creative ways that are a bit outside the box, especially people who've grown up in a context where they haven't been able to openly show their love and interest, making many better at pebbling since that's a 'sneaky' way to try to show your interest for someone,' she explains. What does it mean when someone seems to be pebbling you? It really depends. 'Most of the time, it means that someone notices you and is thinking about you,' Roos says, but cautions that while pebbling can be a way of showing love, it can also be more casual than that. It may just mean someone is attracted to you or are using pebbling to flirt with you. Or they're doing it because they love your friendship. 'It can also have nothing to do with love, but that someone just wants to show you some love at a friendly level,' Roos explains.

5 Netflix Shows That Are Perfect For Fans Of ‘The Hunting Wives'
The internet has been buzzing with chatter about the perfectly twisted, sex-fueled Netflix binge, The Hunting Wives. The steamy sex scenes made headlines, but it was also the gripping plot and fabulous cast, including Malin Akerman, Brittany Snow, Katie Lowes, Jaime Ray Newman, Chrissy Metz, and Dermot Mulroney, that kept viewers hooked and hoping for a season two. The story centers on a group of gun-toting socialites in the small town of Maple Brook, East Texas, known as The Hunting Wives. These women don't work; they 'wife.' They're out preying on anyone who gets in their way, even if it's someone in their frenemy group. These ladies who lunch have a lot of sex, are very good at getting into trouble, and even become involved in murder. The eight-episode series, based on May Cobb's bestselling novel of the same name, was adapted for TV by showrunner, writer, and executive producer Rebecca Cutter, who loved Cobb's book and knew it would make a great show. If you're a fan, her series Hightown is also available for streaming on Netflix. Although there has been no word on a second season yet, given the outcry, it's likely to be announced soon. So, what can fans watch in the meantime? Fear not, Netflix has you covered! The Waterfront Series creator and showrunner Kevin Williamson was inspired by real-life events when he penned this sexy crime drama about a wealthy and powerful family pushed to the edge when their empire faces collapse. For decades, the Buckley clan has ruled Havenport, North Carolina, dominating everything from the local fishing industry to the town's restaurant scene. Their fishing empire starts to crumble as patriarch Harlan Buckley (Holt McCallany) recovers from two heart attacks, and his wife Belle (Maria Bello) and son Cane (Jake Weary) venture into the deep end to keep the family businesses afloat. His father, Williamson explained in a sit-down interview, made the mistake of getting involved in illegal activities when he ended up in dire financial straits. 'He was a very good man who was trying to support his family,' he said in part, adding that this was not a one-time incident and led to a multi-year prison sentence, of which he served 11 months in a minimum security prison. 'I think when it comes to feeding and supporting your family, you would do anything.' The Buckley family at the heart of the eight-episode story is in a similar situation. Though the characters are fictional and some of the plot points are exaggerated, Williamson clarified that the impetus of the story was based on his father's struggles and choices. Though a huge hit, there is no official word on a second season. Williamson has stated he has plenty of ideas for future storylines, so there's hope! Sirens Molly Smith Metzler's limited series about a woman hellbent on saving her sister from a life she doesn't want saving from became an immediate hit, garnering five Emmy Award nominations. The five-episode series also spent eight weeks on the Global Top 10 charts and reached No.1 in over 70 countries. Centered on the Greek mythology of sirens, the story follows Devon (Meghann Fahy), who thinks her sister Simone (Milly Alcock) has a really creepy relationship with her new boss, the enigmatic socialite Michaela Kell (Julianne Moore). Devon believes Michaela's cult-ish life of luxury has become a drug to her younger sister, and she shows up to save her. What happens next takes place over one explosive weekend at Peter (Kevin Bacon) and Michaela Kell's lavish beach estate. Sirens, said Metzler in an interview, was inspired by an eye-opening summer trip to Martha's Vineyard when she was a graduate student at The Juilliard School. That summer spent working at a yacht club was the impetus for the play-turned-television series, which marks the first project from her creative partnership with Netflix. 'I didn't know that kind of wealth existed. I'd never seen it before…the pastels and the necklaces and the kind of tribal quality that these incredibly wealthy people had. It felt like a cult,' Metzler said in part. 'I remember being taken with it and thinking their life was better than ours. I waited tables all summer, and I found it intoxicating.' Like Metzler's previous Netflix hit Maid, this series takes a fascinating deep-dive into money, power, social class, and the clash between the haves and the have-nots. Ginny & Georgia Fans cannot get enough of this series, and season three was no exception. The story picked up after Georgia's (Brianne Howey) arrest for murder as she fights to save her life and family. Ginny (Antonia Gentry) is left to protect her brother Austin (Diesel La Torraca), and deal with the dramas of high school and her friends, including her love Marcus (Felix Mallard), and his twin sister, Maxine (Sara Waisglass). This series does an excellent job of spotlighting the multitude of issues teenagers face, which has drawn in millions of fans who see themselves in these characters. The show works very closely with Mental Health America in an effort to portray these struggles with respect and accuracy. In a paired sit-down interview, Howey and Gentry discussed the mother-daughter bond their characters share, and Howey even talked about Georgia's mental health, saying, 'I do think Georgia has narcissistic qualities. That being said, I think she's the type of narcissist who is capable of change, and that's what has been really compelling this season to see. Every character goes on a mental health journey.' In a separate interview, Mallard and Waisglass discussed the series' spotlight on depression, especially in season three, with both of their characters. Mallard's character is also dealing with addiction issues, as well, to which he said in part, 'With something like substance abuse, depression, and mental health, I think it requires a level of care and a level of understanding, and it's a delicate topic, so to be able to approach that is important.' Counter to her brother, Maxine is the outspoken, happy-go-lucky, popular girl who masks her loneliness and sorrow. 'I don't think depression is one size fits all. I think one of the most shocking things is when you see someone who you think is brilliant and funny and amazing and has the best energy, and you understand that they struggle with mental health. It's always a shock," Waisglass added. Untamed The Eric Bana-helmed mystery blew up the Netflix charts, debuting at No. 1 on the Global Top 10 charts with an impressive 24.6 million views in its first week. The limited six-episode thriller set in Yosemite also claimed the No. 1 spot in over 80 countries, prompting a quick season two pickup. The story follows Kyle Turner (Bana), a special agent for the National Park Service Investigative Services Branch (ISB), who works to enforce human law in nature's vast wilderness. The investigation of a brutal death sends Turner on a collision course with the dark secrets within the park and in his past with his former wife, Jill (Rosemarie DeWitt). Both spoke in separate interviews about the complicated, codependent relationship between their characters after a devastating loss. 'I thought it was beautiful and unique. When I read the interplay between them, I realized I hadn't seen that kind of relationship on screen before. It's quite often a cliché, a combative thing. In this case, people who have experienced a shared loss will be able to empathize with the dynamic of their relationship. I thought it was touching," Bana explained. 'I think these two are bonded. They were just dealt a really bad hand, but they are each other's person. There's still great love there. I think they wish the world were different and that they could be together, and they can't tolerate it, because what they share is just too painful. They're the only person that each needs and the only person that they can't have. That's torture. They're both in the middle of hell, and there's no with you, and there's no without you,' added DeWitt. The Perfect Couple There's nothing like a murder to put a damper on the perfect destination wedding! It's the Fourth of July weekend, and Celeste Otis is about to say 'I do' to the love of her life, who happens to be from the wealthiest family on Nantucket. But when a body is discovered floating in the harbor on the morning of what was to be the wedding of the year, suddenly every guest is a suspect. This six-episode mini-series is based on Elin Hilderbrand's New York Times bestseller, and stars Nicole Kidman as famous mystery novelist Greer Garrison Winbury. Though Greer is used to covering up secrets, especially those of her philandering husband Tag (Liev Schreiber), she may be over her head this time around. Directed by Susanne Bier, this fun mystery also stars Meghann Fahy (Sirens), Eve Hewson, Billy Howle, Sam Nivola, and Dakota Fanning. The show's popularity spiked book sales by more than 400%, with print sales jumping 250%, putting Hilderbrand's book back onto the New York Times best-seller list six years after its initial publication. As always, happy binge-watching on Netflix!
