Mothers' Pride! Cynthia Nixon and wife Christine Marinoni show off their son Max at Gay Pride March in New York
She created a stir when she started dating activist Christine Marinoni back in 2004.
And Sex And The City star Cynthia Nixon and her wife looked so in love as they showed off their son Max at the Gay Pride March in New York on Sunday.
The bisexual beauty seemed to be having a great time as she mingled with the crowd, which included the likes of NYC mayor Bill De Blasio and controversial civil right activist Al Sharpton.

Other dignitaries at the event, which was held just two weeks after the horrific attack at Pulse nightclub in Orlando, included presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton and New York Governor Andrew Cuomo.
Cynthia, 50, showcased her slender figure in a grey T-shirt and white trousers, while her partner, who she married in 2012, went for an androgynous look of plaid shirt and jeans.
Their five-year-old boy, who Christine gave birth to in February 2011, meanwhile seemed to be enjoying the pomp and circumstance, and looked cute as a button in his T-shirt and denim shorts.
Mother-of-three Cynthia also has 20-year-old daughter Sam and a 14-year-old son Charles with schoolteacher Danny Mozes, her lover from 1988 until 2003.

Speaking about her relationship with education activist Christine in 2007, she said: 'I don't really feel I've changed.
'I'd been with men all my life, and I'd never fallen in love with a woman. But when I did, it didn't seem so strange. I'm just a woman in love with another woman.'
She formally identified herself as bisexual in 2012, telling the Advocate that her sexual orientation 'is not a choice'.
But Cynthia was far from the only famous face who was lending their backing to the cause, with others showing their support via the power of social media.

Madonna and Jennifer Lopez were two other celebrities who marked the event, putting messages of support on their Instagram pages, with the former saying: 'Support Gay Pride in NY and London. Today loveislove. All over the World.'
Lena Dunham also made a statement, saying: 'Like a lot of weirdo straight girls, the LGBTQ community raised me up right, showed me what radicalism could mean, that the personal could be political, that our true identities are all we have.
'Today we remember those we lost to HIV/AIDS (I love you, Jimmy) and to crimes of hatred and negligence. We mourn the monstrosity of Orlando. And we celebrate a community that cannot and will not leave its siblings behind.
'Let's now push for a world where queer people of color are safe from violence and persecution, where trans health and humanity matters to everyone, where love conquers all. And let's dance.'
