Hollywood icon Sarah Jessica Parker is already plotting her next chapter—but she’s not in a hurry to flip the page just yet.
In a recent interview on The Best People with Nicolle Wallace, the Sex and the City star revealed she’s looking forward to a time when she can travel freely. But for now? She’s keeping it grounded—literally—for her kids.
Empty Nest Life? Not So Fast
At 60, Sarah Jessica Parker has a bustling household with husband Matthew Broderick, their 22-year-old son James, and 16-year-old twin daughters Tabitha and Marion. And while the idea of a peaceful, travel-filled life is tempting, Sarah says she’s not “overly eager” to become an empty nester.
“The idea of leisure is pretty amazing to think about,” she told Nicolle Wallace. “But I don’t want it until I know my children are pursuing their next stage of life in their academic careers.”
Her dream? To start traveling in September—once the school bells stop ringing at home.
Wanderlust on Hold (For Now)
Sarah shared that with her children still in school, jetting off to global hotspots just isn’t practical.
“There are times that other countries are at their best, and right now with my children in school, I can’t go where I would wanna go.”
But when the time comes? She’s ready to explore the world without looking at the school calendar.
Still Hustling, Still Inspired
Even with travel dreams on pause, don’t expect SJP to slow down anytime soon. The star, who’s been juggling family and career like a pro for decades, says she never has those “Hmm, what should I do today?” kind of moments.
“That’s just not been — no fault but my own — the way I’ve functioned,” she said, reflecting on her packed professional schedule.
Raising Strong, Independent Kids
The stylish star isn’t just focused on work and wanderlust—she’s raising her kids to be self-sufficient and emotionally solid.
In a previous sit-down with E! News, Sarah said she wants her children to be financially and emotionally capable of standing on their own two feet.
“You want them to be pursuing things that are exciting and hard and gratifying. And to be able to ultimately take care of themselves—emotionally, financially—and to be a reliable person to themselves and to other people.”
Final Word: SJP’s Next Chapter Is Coming But She’s Turning the Page on Her Own Time
While the “And Just Like That” star still has a full house, the countdown to empty-nest adventures has unofficially begun. Whether she’s on a film set or eventually trekking across Europe, one thing’s for sure—Sarah Jessica Parker is doing motherhood and stardom on her own terms.
