In his only interview since being accused of sexual assaults, Chris Noth maintains his sole transgression was cheating on his wife. Though he’d like people to believe that and to resume his career, Noth knows ugly allegations about him linger.
"I strayed on my wife, and it's devastating to her and not a very pretty picture," he says. "What it isn't is a crime."
The story about two women’s sexual assault accusations against the actor surfaced in December 2021, a week after the premiere of Max's "And Just Like That," the sequel to "Sex and the City," in which his character, Carrie Bradshaw's husband John "Mr. Big" Preston, dies of a heart attack. Another three women came forward, saying he also assaulted them. Stars Sarah Jessica Parker, Kristin Davis and Cynthia Nixon issued a statement saying they supported and commended the women for coming forward.
Noth lost a $12 million deal for his tequila brand, was fired from CBS drama "The Equalizer," was dropped from a Peloton ad, was cut from the season finale of "And Just Like That" and was shunned by the industry. Noth stands by his initial statement that any sexual encounters he was involved in were consensual and says the worst thing he did was commit adultery
