Sarah Jessica Parker and Cynthia Nixon surprised fans after revealing they starred together in a film years before Sex And The City.
The actresses are best known for their roles as Carrie Bradshaw and Miranda Hobbs on the beloved HBO series and it’s sequel show And Just Like That.
But Sarah and Cynthia didn’t meet on Sex And The City and actually had known each other since their teenage years.
The pair both appeared in the 1984 TV film My Body My Child. Sarah played the role of Katy, while Cynthia portrayed Nancy, the younger sister of the main character, Leenie (played by Vanessa Redgrave).
The film tells the story of woman facing a difficult decision regarding a pregnancy with potential health risks.
It would be another 14 years before their bond was solidified in the minds of fans everywhere after Sex And The City premiered on HBO.

In December, Sarah teased that the new season of And Just Like That… features some ‘new male’ characters.

Speaking at Red Sea Film Festival in Saudi Arabia, she spilled: ‘Carrie [Bradshaw] has a wonderful storyline.
‘The story takes some big swings, and we fold some big ideas into those big swings. Some of the male characters are back, and there are some new men.’
Sarah teased: ‘There are so many interesting stories with additional characters that rightfully find a real home.’
At the end of season two, Carrie’s lover Aidan Shaw (John Corbett) departed New York City to return to Virginia to be there for his son Wyatt after he asked her to wait five years for them to be together.
Kim Cattrall, who plays sex-crazed Samantha Jones, also made a cameo, but is not expected to return.
However, Kristin Davis (Charlotte), Cynthia (Miranda), Nicole Ari Parker (Lisa), Mario Cantone (Anthony), Sarita Choudhury (Seema), and Katerina Tannenbaum (Lisette) are all confirmed to be reprising their respective roles.
