Kristin gave a charming interview to The Telegraph in order to promote the new season. Normally, I wouldn't call an interview "charming," however Davis's honesty and positivity made me feel that way. She is a single mother by choice. She adopted two Black kids. And she's definitely not the uptight, prissy Charlotte you see on TV. She navigates tricky conversations, including those about race, ageism and Kim Cattrall, with grace. Highlights:

People forget how shocking the original 'Sex and the City" was. Four women over 30 years old staring in a show that places men second and discusses relationships and sex with openness.

"Why shouldn't life still be interesting?" - a response to the critics who say that these characters are best left in the past. The society expects that you will diminish as you get older. Why should we? Mary Steenburgen, the Oscar-winning 70-year-old actress, said recently: "I'm still here."

"I'm tired of this word. It feels like the word has been weaponised. It's unfortunate, because all it means is that you are educated on what others go through. Why is it a bad thing to do that?

She never got married: "I think it was because of the South, where everyone is so focused on getting married. [She grew up in South Carolina as the only daughter of a data scientist and a professor of psychology.] There's pressure. My parents weren't like that. They were more hippies and I was independent. I remember saying when I was young, "I will never get married." I said "Down with patriarchy!" and I didn't want to stay in the South with all the blondes. I'm sorry. No offense.

Kim Cattrall was absent from AJLT. 'You must respect the wishes of people. I won't waste my energy on this. I can't make anyone change. I understand the fans' frustration. I wish I could change it, but it's out of my control.

Her children Gemma, and Wilson are now eleven and five. I'd always considered adopting. It took me a long time to adopt. You get a form with a list of races and are supposed to select the ones that you prefer. I thought it was crazy so I checked "any". She is very sensitive to any hint of racism. 'People make crazy comments. People want to know why I don't let my tall daughter play basketball. When you have a son, it can be frightening to read the news. They're all very sporty at the moment. My son and daughter are both obsessed with soccer and basketball ..."

She rarely dates: "I have many mom friends who try to set me up. I can't handle it... I tried because life's short, right?" You think, "That could work," but it's difficult... It's energy. Two times I tried to build new relationships. Once with someone I knew for years and was brilliant in my industry. He got angry with me because I didn't pay attention to his work. I said, "Dude".

She is open about her cosmetic work: "It's difficult to always be faced with your younger self. It's hard to keep in mind that you don’t have to be like that. Internet wants you to, but also doesn't. They are very confused ...' Initially, she tried Botox. 'I couldn't believe I didn't need to have my laterals lines.' After that, I did not do anything for a while. Then I started getting fillers. I had to have them removed and was ridiculed mercilessly. It's so stressful that I cried. It's very difficult.

She says that she is now more relaxed about the whole situation. 'It's whatever. I'm not able to keep up. I don't want to. You trust doctors, but people blame us personally when things go wrong. [As if] a needle was inserted in my face ...'. No one ever told me that it looked bad for a long time. Luckily, I have some good friends who told me eventually. You don't even smile in the mirror. Who smiles in the mirror? Crazy people.'

She also dismisses the fact that "she gave up drinking in early 20s because she was an addict back then." She makes it seem like everyone knows it, even though I did not know it. She says she also has a contract with AJLT that allows her to keep Charlotte's clothing. It's amazing. She sounds just like any other single mother and working mom. She has barely any time to date. She's tried cosmetics, and she is just trying to make it through the day. She seems cool.
