Sarah Jessica Parker Confirms She Dated Former Costar Nicolas Cage

Sarah Jessica Parker just confirmed a longtime rumor about her love life.

During the Sunday, July 13, episode of Watch What Happens Live, Andy Cohen asked the 60-year-old actress if she previously dated Nicolas Cage. The Sex and the City star was quick to disclose the truth.

“Um, yes I did,” she replied. “Yes, I did.”

Cohen, 57, responded, “Oh, wow. Oh, we got some talking to do.”

Parker and Cage, 61, costarred in Honeymoon in Vegas, which was released in 1992. In the film, Parker plays the love interest of both Cage and the late James Caan.

While Parker didn’t offer more details about the timeline of her past fling with Cage, it likely occurred before Parker met now-husband Matthew Broderick in November 1991. (Parker previously revealed she and Broderick didn’t start dating until 1992.)

The conversation about Parker’s dating life came up after the actress revealed how she knew Broderick, 63, was The One.

“I just knew he was incredible, just spending a little bit of time with him,” Parker said of her husband. “I think probably pretty early [I knew].”

Parker was also the first one in their relationship who said, “I love you,” just before she began a new project.

“I remember I had to leave to go on location to shoot a movie and we were on East 10th Street [in New York City] and I was getting in a car to go away for a while,” she said. “I remember thinking, ‘I love him.’”

After deliberating for about a minute, Parker revealed her feelings.

“Nothing to lose, you know what I mean?” Parker continued, noting that Broderick said it back.

Parker and Broderick were married by May 1997. The couple expanded their family with three kids: son James, 22, and twin daughters Tabitha and Marion, 13.

“We’ve been together for 20 years and you have good days, you have decent days, and you have bad days. That’s a marriage,” Parker said in a December 2011 interview with The Telegraph. “That’s a relationship. That’s a friendship, even — relationships outside the marriage run the same course.”

She added, “If you’re in it for the long haul, and you want meaningful relationships, you are going to go through lots of different periods.”
