Kim Cattrall
- Profession: Actress
- Place/Date of Birth: Widnes, Cheshire, 21 August 2020
The three-time divorced actress, 50, says boyfriend Alan Wyse, 29, is absolutely "terrific" but fears a formal commitment could jeopardise their present happiness.
"I am not going to get married and don’t think I will again," she told the Daily Express. "People say never say never, but when the piece of paper gets involved, sometimes it goes south. So I’m just having a lovely, lovely relationship."
Earlier this week, the blonde admitted she is "a little embarrassed" about the age gap between the pair.
In the last season of Sex And The City, her sex-mad PR character Samantha finally settled down with toyboy actor Smith Jerrod, played by Jason Lewis.
She said: "To be honest, I’m a little embarrassed about it because it’s so close to a storyline that Samantha had."
Kim teams up with Daniel - May 31 2007
Kim Cattrall will star alongside Daniel Radcliffe in a ITV1 film, it has been announced.
The Sex In The City actress will play Caroline Kipling in My Boy Jack, in which the Harry Potter star will play the son she watches go off to the trenches of World War One.
It is the 17-year-old’s first major TV drama since finding fame as the teenage wizard in adaptations of JK Rowling’s bestselling books.
Other cast will include Bleak House’s Carey Mulligan as Elsie Kipling and the film’s writer David Haig as Rudyard Kipling.
Controller of Drama at ITV, Laura Mackie, said: "Having won the heart of millions as Sex In The City’s Samantha Jones, it’s a real thrill to welcome Kim Cattrall onto ITV1. The part of Caroline Kipling will see her in a completely different role, and illustrates our commitment to bold and inventive casting."
Set during the war, My Boy Jack will tell the true story of how Jack’s dad Rudyard used his influence to get his 17-year-old son a commission with the Irish Guards despite his son’s poor eyesight. He later went missing in action and his parents carried out a long and painful search for him, spanning many years.
The two hour single drama will be filmed in Dublin during the summer.

Leaving home at sixteen to pursue an acting career Kim found herself in New York, where she attended the American Academy of Dramatic Arts. On graduation her talent was spotted and she signed a five year movie deal with Otto Preminger, a contract that was soon brought out by big bucks studio Universal. The deal saw Kim become a television regular and before long she found herself starring in the Oscar nominated Tribute (1980). More films followed and Kim soon found herself edging towards the comedy genre with parts in Porkys and Police Academy.
Real stardom came knocking in 1987 as Kim was offered the title role in Mannequin, however the success of the movie didn’t guarantee bigger and better roles and it wasn’t until 1991 and Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country that she gained a cult status. Throughout the 90s Kim continued her relationship with the theatre appearing on stage regularly until 1997 when she was offered the role of Samantha in Sex and the City. The rest is television legend.
Despite rumours of rifts between Kim and other cast members a Sex and the City film was finally confirmed in 2007. In the meantime Kim has been working on stage, notably appearing in a West End production of Whose Life Is It Anyway and reportedly agreeing to a part in Desperate Housewives.
Currently dating actor Alexander Siddig, Kim has been married three times - to Larry Davis, Andre J Lyson and Mark Levinson with whom she published Satisfaction: The Art Of The Female Orgasm. She has also written two further books, Being a Girl and Sexual Intelligence.
