Sarah Jessica Parker Returns To Filming 'Sex And The City' Revival 'And Just Like That...' Following Willie Garson's Death
Sarah Jessica Parker returned to the set of And Just Like That... on Monday, September 28, following the loss of her close friend and costar Willie Garson the last week.
The 56-year-old actress was back in full Carrie Bradshaw mode, as she sported a gray button up coat with a patterned dress underneath that she paired with a matching felt hat and a pair of fuchsia peep toe pumps.
Parker's solemn return to work comes after the death of Garson, who starred in both the Sex and the City series and the films as Stanford Blatch. As OK! previously reported, the actor lost his battle with pancreatic cancer on Tuesday, September 21, while surrounded by his loved ones.
His son Nathan took to Instagram to announce the tragic news on Tuesday, September 21. "I love you so much papa. Rest In Peace and I’m so glad you got to share all your adventures with me and were able to accomplish so much. I’m so proud of you," he wrote. "I will always love you, but I think it’s time for you to go on an adventure of your own."
"You’ll always be with me. Love you more than you will ever know and I’m glad you can be at peace now. You always were the toughest and funniest and smartest person I’ve known. I’m glad you shared you’re love with me. I’ll never forget it or lose it," the 20-year-old added.

The shoe designer also had her own beautiful words for Garson. On Friday, September 24, Parker shared an Instagram tribute that stated, "It's been unbearable. Sometimes silence is a statement. Of the gravity. The anguish. The magnitude of the loss of a 30 + year friendship."
"A real friendship that allowed for secrets, adventure, a shared professional family, truth, concerts, road trips, meals, late night phone calls, a mutual devotion to parenthood and all the heartaches and joy that accompany, triumphs, disappointments, fear, rage and years spent on sets (most especially Carrie's apartment) and laughing late into the night as both Stanford and Carrie and Willie and SJ," the Divorce star penned.
Parker continued, "Willie. I will miss everything about you. And replay our last moments together. I will re-read every text from your final days and put to pen our last calls."
As OK! previously reported, the television actress took her time breaking her silence on her close pal's passing. After costar and Mr Big, Chris Noth posted a tribute to the late actor, Parker commented saying,"Thank you dearest Chris. I'm not ready yet. Xxx."
