Carrie & Aidan Are Facing This Classic Long-Distance Struggle in 'And Just Like That' Season 3
Warning: This article contains spoilers for And Just Like That… season 3, episode 1. Fans of Sex and the City and And Just Like That… have seen Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker) and Aidan (John Corbett) go through a lot over the years, and the third season of AJLT will be no different. More from SheKnows Carrie & Aidan's Full Relationship Timeline From Sex and The City to And Just Like That At the end of season 2, the on-and-off couple agreed on an unconventional deal. Despite Carrie buying a beautiful Gramercy Park apartment for them to move in together, Aidan decided to stay in Virginia because his 14-year-old son Wyatt was having a hard time at school. As he delivered the news, he asked Carrie to wait five years. By then, Wyatt will be off to college, and he'll finally be able to leave his life behind and move to the Big Apple to be with her. Carrie was surprised, but she didn't exactly say no. 'No matter what happens… this was not a mistake,' Carrie said the next day as they said goodbye, per TVLine. So, as the third season of the show came around this week on May 29, fans might've been asking themselves what's really going on between them. Are they breaking up? Are they going long-distance? If episode one is any indication, Carrie and Aidan aren't breaking things off entirely. While they were keeping it cool by only sending postcards to one another at first, Aidan then called Carrie in the middle of the night. 'I miss you so much,' he says when she picks up. Then, when she called him out for breaking his own rules by calling, Aidan, who's in his truck in the middle of a field, says, 'All of that went out the window after this third beer.' Quickly, their convo goes from pleasantries to full-on phone sex. 'You know how much I love you, Carrie,' he says, while asking her to touch herself. Then, right when they were both getting into it, Aidan buzzes the horn of his truck. 'I scared myself, I hit the horn with my knee,' he says. 'I might've s– my pants a little.' After that, while Aidan gets right back into it, Carrie's understandably turned off. 'C'mon, we can get back there,' he said. 'Can we?' Carrie asks back, laughing. As she struggles to get back in the mood, she exchanges eye contact with her adorable new cat, Shoe. The mood is decidedly gone for her, but Aidan keeps going and finishes. Carrie, for her part, fakes it. Later in the episode, Carrie summarizes the experience to best friends Charlotte (Kristin Davis) and Miranda (Cynthia Nixon). 'He said he missed me and we had phone sex,' she says. 'More specifically, he had phone sex, I stopped midway. The kitty was watching, her little eyes were so curious. So when he went there, I faked it.' While both Charlotte and Miranda agreed that faking it was no big deal, after all a study published in the Archives of Sexual Behavior in 2010 stated that up to 80% of women have admitted to faking it with a sexual partner, per NBC News, Carrie couldn't get past it. So, she comes clean to Aidan in the last scene of the episode. 'I have a confession, I wasn't totally there with you the other night and I said I was,' she tells Aidan in a call at the end of the episode. She then tries to start up phone sex once again, this time asking him to touch himself. 'Uh, Carrie, I can't do this right now,' Aidan then replies. 'I'm in bed with Wyatt, he's asleep, he had a bad night.' Embarrassed and speechless, Carrie apologizes and almost immediately turns off the call. We'll add here that this isn't just the show and its creator, Michael Patrick King, not knowing how to portray phone sex. After all, longtime viewers of SATC might remember Miranda's phone sex adventures back in season 3, episode 10. Things got steamy over the phone, and we all wondered if we were doing it wrong all along. But, this time around, the show wanted to see a couple struggle through it. And while And Just Like That… has gotten hate over the years for being 'unrelatable,' this storyline between Carrie and Aidan is anything but. In a 2018 study from Elite Daily, 48.6% of respondents said that they never had phone sex over the phone. So, unsurprisingly, countless long-distance couples out there can relate to struggling to get the knack of it, at least in the beginning. When is the right time to get into the mood? What if the signal glitches? What if my pet is looking at me? These are all questions that LDR couples around the world may be asking themselves. And while some couples might eventually become pros, others, like Carrie and Aidan, might need a little of SheKnows 30 Photos of Marilyn Monroe's Too-Short Life, From 1947-1962 Every Time Heidi Klum's Gorgeous, Colorful Fashion Choices Stopped Us in Our Tracks Elizabeth Hurley & Billy Ray Cyrus, & More of the Best Red Carpet Debuts From Celebrity Couples Over the Years

All the Most Divisive Fashion Moments From 'And Just Like That'
In the first episode of And Just Like That season 3, Sarah Jessica Parker's Carrie already made headlines. Not only did she seemingly rekindle with Aidan (John Corbett) after their five-year break agreement, but she made a fashion risk that left the internet scratching their heads. In one scene, Carrie is walking through Washington Square Park with her friend Seema (Sarita Choudhury) wearing a cream-colored dress from Ossie Clark and a billowing gingham hat designed by Maryam Keyhani. On the internet, viewers were quick to criticize it. 'Who in their right mind would walk around NYC wearing this hat?? (Or any other city 😆)' wrote one X user. 'On last night's season premiere of And Just Like That, Carrie wore a 'hat' that made me question reality,' wrote another user. 'I saw the hat and wanted it on my head,' Parker said in defense of the hat choice to USA Today. 'At this point, there's no pretend dilly-dallying around. We pretty much just put stuff on my head and photograph it, and hope that Michael Patrick [King, executive producer of the show] is hospitable to the idea.' Luckily, he agreed. 'It's like, 'Hey, everybody, we're back!' he told the outlet of the look. 'I've learned over the years that sometimes logic is not as good as a hat. It makes people say, 'I love it. I hate it. Oh, my God, what was she thinking?'' To check out the divisive hat and some other divisive looks from And Just Like That over the years, scroll below!

It's camp at its finest. Also in episode 1, viewers couldn't exactly get behind the oversized ball necklace Nicole Ari Parker's character Lisa Todd Wexley wore. 'And Just Like That Season 3 is strange…Between the clown bonnet and woven string light necklace I'm lost,' wrote one X user. In season 1, Carrie left fans scratching their heads with a scene of her smoking in a pink Batsheva housedress, babushka-style headscarf, and elbow-length purple latex gloves. Luckily, it all had an explanation. In a convo with Seema, she explained that the look is to avoid any cigarette smoke or smell from coming into her apartment. 'I smoked in here one night and then everything smelled like a cigarette and I was right back there, wanting to smoke morning, noon, and while I was sleeping,' she told her friend, per Vogue. 'Now, I allow myself one a day in a walk around the block, with like three kerchiefs on my head and Playtex kitchen gloves. I just can't risk having that smell on my hair and my hands.' Carrie and Steve (David Eigenberg) shared a sweet moment together when they volunteered to paint houses in season 1. One thing that fans couldn't get behind, though? Why would Carrie go paint in these massive silver platform heels? When season 1 was filming, AJLT got backlash when fans speculated that Parker wore this Boho dress seemingly from Forever 21 in one of the scenes. As it turns out, not only was the dress not from the fast fashion brand, but the look was all carefully planned. 'The message from [show creator] Michael Patrick King was 'Put Carrie in something that she would be kind of embarrassed to wear while bumping into Natasha [Big's ex-wife] at the coffee place,'' costume designer Molly Rogers told InStyle. 'For me, that was that long summer dress, and SJ wanted to put a tiger shirt underneath it. It was very Coachella in a way; I didn't really find it to be a very Carrie outfit. That's why I thought it worked.' They also revealed the dress was vintage. 'That was something that I purchased probably about five years ago,' fellow designer Danny Santiago said. 'It had no label in it, and I think I paid $5 or $6 at a thrift shop.' While this look didn't get as much attention as any Carrie look did in the show, this look from Lisette (Katerina Tannenbaum) was certainly a choice. Together with these oversized brown boots, Lisette wore these pink hot pants, a bright blue bra and a sheer dress on top. We all know that Carrie has a flair for drama, but this white tulle skirt paired with this striped colorful shirt wasn't exactly the cohesive look viewers were looking for. In season 2, one of the show's most controversial moments was Carrie's pigeon clutch in episode 2. The bag, which is 3D-printed by JW Anderson, accessorized Carrie's gray jumpsuit. 'We brought it in, they loaned us one, and Sarah Jessica was like, 'Gimme that bag!'' Molly Rogers told Entertainment Weekly. 'She was totally into it. It's painted beautifully.' In the sixth episode of season 2, Carrie left viewers gasping when she faced a blizzard in this massive Moncler by Valentino's Pierpaolo Piccioli coat. It's probably the most dramatic look of hers to date, but it sure would insulate her from the cold! 'I, too, gasped when I saw that coat,' wrote Callie Holtermann for the New York Times. 'You're telling me she had that in her closet earlier this season when she supposedly had nothing to wear to the Met Gala? When Rihanna herself arrived at the Met in 2021 wearing a Balenciaga puffer gown with a giant train?' You know an outfit is good for the Met Gala when you need your husband to help you, right? In the Met Gala episode in season 2, Lisa Todd Wexley (Nicole Ari Parker) wore this flowy red custom Valentino dress paired with a dramatic Philip Treacy headpiece with red petals. We could barely see LTW's face, she couldn't get into a car, and her husband Herbert (Christopher Jackson) needed to help her with the train. Was all the hastle worth it?
