You know they say “where there’s smoke there’s fire”? Well, here’s yet another case to confirm that there’s truth to that saying.

For years, the Sex and the City gang has denied a feud between Kim Cattrall and her co-stars Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon, and Kristen Davis.

Each actress has gone out of their way to dismiss the rumours, Cattrall herself saying that jealous critics “don’t want to believe that we get on” because they “have too much invested in the idea of strong, successful women fighting with each other,” reports The Daily Beast.

But now, well, now Cattrall has come out with the truth.

Speaking to dickhead and unsolicited celebrity commentator Piers Morgan on his television show Life Stories, Cattrall dished the dirt on her turbulent relationship with her co-stars:

“For me it’s over, it’s over with no regrets. I just wish that Sarah had been nicer.”

She also said, referring to Parker, that she doesn’t “know what her issue is” and “never” has.

“I’ve moved on, this is what my sixties are about, they’re about me making decisions for me not my career, for me. And that feels frickin’ fantastic.”

Cattrall also denied reports that she was “blocking production of a new Sex and the City film by holding out for a higher pay packet”:

“Another thing that’s really disappointing is that nobody ever picks up the phone and tries to contact you and say, ‘How you doing?’ That would have been the way to handle it.

“And usually what happens in a healthy relationship is that someone, or a transaction for a job in my business, is that someone says, ‘Are you available?’ and you say ‘Yes’ and here’s the job and you say ‘Yes but thank you very much but I’m sort of over here right now but thank you very much,’ and that person turns to you and they say ‘That’s great, good luck to you, I wish you the best.’”

Cattrall then added: “That’s not what happened here, this is, it feels like a toxic relationship.”

“I don’t want to in any shape or form ruin the ideal of [the show], because it does stand for empowerment and it does stand for women sticking up for each other—but not always.”

Cattrall continued, going so far as to suggest another actress could take over her part:

“I want them to make the movie, if that’s what they want to do. It’s a great part. I played it past the finish line, and then some. I loved it and another actress should play it, maybe they could make it an African-American Samantha Jones or a Hispanic Samantha Jones?”

“I don’t feel like a victim, I feel like I came out of this on top. This has given me a fantastic platform. Sarah Jessica, she could have been nicer, she could have in some way. I don’t know what her issue is, I never have.”

I wonder what Hispanic Samantha would have to say about that.
