'I'm not sure they're real': Sarah Jessica Parker shares mind-blowing Sex And The City theory that Carrie's BFFs don't actually exist - she made them up
Sarah Jessica Parker has just dropped a mind-blowing theory about Sex And The City.
The actress - who played Carrie Bradshaw in the hit HBO show and two movies - believes that her pals Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte might actually be figments of her character's literary imagination.
'I used to wonder if Samantha, Charlotte and Miranda were real,' Sarah, 51, said during an interview with Chris Hardwick on the Nerdist podcast.

'I used to wonder if Samantha, Charlotte and Miranda were real,' Sarah, 51, said during an interview
'That that it wasn't just her column... because they're such perfectly archetypal characters. So you're writing a column about sexual politics and observations of female/male primarily, heterosexual relationships, so you're picking one type.
'You're saying "this type is this and this", and then you complicate it more, like any good writer does. So I'm not entirely sure they are real.'
Sarah further explains why she believes Carrie puts herself into the lives of these 'literary conceits'.
Invented: The actress thinks Miranda, Samantha and Charlotte might have been created by the columnist to play out her views and observations on sexual politics
'She is among them because that's her way of infiltrating story and affecting story too, to have her own actions affect those friendships and document their response,' the actress explains.
The theory could fit, considering each episode is narrated by Carrie and the storylines that play out are all those that she writes about in her weekly column for the fictional newspaper The New York Star.
Kim Cattrall, Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis have played Carrie's BFFs since the show first aired in 1998 and, imaginary or not, there is talk of all four ladies returning to the big screen in a third Sex And The City movie.
Back to TV: Sarah returns to HBO in new show Divorce
'I don’t think any of us have said no,' Parker told the Press Association.
'I don’t know whether it’s a series or the movie. I think that remains an open question and discussion that will continue until it’s been resolved.'
Sarah can next be seen in her new HBO series, Divorce, which will premiere October 9 at 10pm.
