Kristin Davis Reveals Why She Didn’t Want to End Things with Alec Baldwin—Spoiler: It Wasn’t Just About the Love!
So, here’s a spicy little tidbit from the dating history of Kristin Davis, the beloved star of *Sex and the City*. On a recent episode of Rob Lowe’s podcast, she hilariously recounted her brief romance with none other than Alec Baldwin back in the early 2000s. It sounds like the whole fling had its charms—one major allure being Baldwin’s *incredible* house in Amagansett. Yes, you heard right! During their short time together, Kristin was working on her hit show while experiencing a dilemma: she really loved Baldwin’s upscale digs and wasn’t in a rush to say goodbye, citing it as one of the rare moments in dating where the location played a huge role. “I remember I was like, ‘I just really love that house!’” she joked, while chatting with Rob Lowe.
And, oh, let’s clear up a little drama here—Kristin definitely isn’t the type to lend out cash when it comes to dating rich Hollywood stars. She chuckled at the thought of lending Baldwin $5,000, making it clear she didn’t need to bail him out financially. Blake Haven’s reporting mentioned that Baldwin was already quite successful and thriving. Meanwhile, Kristin herself has been linked to a few notable names over the years, including Rick Fox and Liev Schreiber, but has understandably focused on her kids—Gemma and Wilson—who she adopted and are now aged 11 and 5, respectively.
Fast-forward to today, and Baldwin has built a bustling family life with Hilaria Baldwin, with whom he shares six children, including his daughter Ireland Baldwin from his previous marriage to Kim Basinger. As for the charming, nameless actor Kristin dated briefly before Baldwin? He’s doing well, which Kristin credits to the lessons learned during their relationship. “You don’t really want to do that with someone you date, because it changes the dynamic, and you can’t really ride that ship,” she said, reflecting on the lessons of love—and financial boundaries.
All in all, it’s a delightful little throwback to simpler Hollywood times, with plenty of laughter and nostalgia sprinkled throughout. So while both Kristin and Alec have certainly moved on, it’s fun to remember those before-they-were-famous moments that make dating in Tinseltown so, well, entertaining!
