59-year-old actress Sarah Jessica Parker had a terrible relationship with food when she was younger. She admits to seeing food as the “enemy” and revealed her parents didn’t have any sugar in the household. No sweets at all.
So when she and her siblings moved out, they bought pounds of cookies and cakes.
“I didn’t want that for my kids,” Parker said during a recent episode of the Ruthie’s Table 4 podcast.
When I had girls, I didn’t want them to have a relationship with food that was antagonistic and to see it as an enemy. In our house, we have cookies, we have cake, we have everything. And as a result, you have a better relationship. My daughters will have the figures they have, and hopefully they’ll be healthy. They’re athletes and they enjoy food and have different palates.
Parker has three kids in total: a 21-year-old son named James, and 14-year-old twin daughters Marion and Tabitha. She shares them all with her actor husband, Matthew Broderick.
Elsewhere in the podcast, Parker revealed she and Broderick cook a family dinner almost every single night.
Matthew cooks. We both cook every single day. We eat dinner as a family every night. And always have dinner every Sunday night. It’s just what we do.
Can we get an invite???
