Kristin Davis Shares How She Was Ghosted After Lending A Fellow Actor $5,000
HuffPost
The "Sex and the City" actor said she felt "embarrassed" about the whole thing.
And just like that, “Sex and the City” star Kristin Davis learned a valuable lesson about mixing finances and dating.
Davis, known to millions of fans of the HBO series as Charlotte York, revealed on her podcast “Are You a Charlotte?” that she was ghosted after loaning a man $5,000.
In an episode released Monday, Davis chatted with guest Sarah Wynter, an Australian actor who appeared in the series’ pilot. The two discussed the art of disappearing as it relates to dating, a topic that came up when Wynter ― whose character was the first person ever depicted having sex on the series ― noted that she was also the “first person to be ghosted.”
“I did one time date this out-of-work actor,” Davis told Wynter. “I think this was before ‘Sex and the City,’ maybe between [‘Melrose Place’] and ‘Sex and the City,’ or maybe when I was on ‘Melrose.’ I don’t know. He’s now very successful.”
Davis recalled that she was making a name for herself at the time, but her beau was not as fortunate. She remembered going to his apartment and spotting a slew of termination notices scattered all over the place. Davis said this actor also “wrecked his motorcycle” and had no way to get to his auditions. She said she then made the “horrible mistake” of asking: “Can I lend you some money?”
