“Sex and the City” alum Sarah Jessica Parker is reportedly having some concerns that actor Chris Noth’s sexual assault allegations could ruin the legacy of her iconic character Carrie Bradshaw.

Following Noth’s reprisal of his role as Big in the “And Just Like That” reboot, multiple women have come forward and accused the star of sexual assault. The allegations have reportedly left Parker “heartbroken.”

“She is fiercely protective of Carrie Bradshaw and livid that she and everyone else at the show has been put into this position,” a source told Us Weekly. “It is not about the money, but rather her legacy. Carrie was all about helping women and now, under her watch, women are saying that they have been hurt.”

After allegations were made against Noth, Parker felt “blindsided” by the news. “She takes the power of being Carrie Bradshaw very seriously. With great power comes great responsibility and although SJP knows this is about him, not her, she feels like she has let everyone down,” the insider explained.

News about Parker’s feelings regarding the allegations comes after Noth was spotted on a somber stroll in Central Park on Christmas day. At one point during the outing, Noth appeared focused as he sat on a park bench and spoke to someone on the phone.

Noth previously released a statement on Dec. 16, denying allegations after two women shared their stories with The Hollywood Reporter about sexual assaults that took place in 2004 and 2015.

“The accusations against me made by individuals I met years, even decades, ago are categorically false,” Noth said in a statement at the time.

“These stories could’ve been from 30 years ago or 30 days ago — no always means no — that is a line I did not cross. The encounters were consensual. It’s difficult not to question the timing of these stories coming out. I don’t know for certain why they are surfacing now, but I do know this: I did not assault these women.”

Parker along with her “And Just Like That” co-stars Kristin Davis and Cynthia Nixon also released a statement addressing the matter.

“We are deeply saddened to hear the allegations against Chris Noth. “We support the women who have come forward and shared their painful experiences,” the statement read. “We know it must be a very difficult thing to do and we commend them for it.”

Noth has since been dropped by his talent agency and fired from the CBS series “The Equalizer.”
