At 67, Kim Cattrall is living her best life far from the glitz and glamour of *Sex and the City*. Though she’s moved on from her iconic role as Samantha Jones, Cattrall is enjoying a rich and fulfilling new chapter.
No longer a fixture in the world of New York City’s high society, she’s now making the UK her home base.
These days, Cattrall is frequently spotted in the UK, where she splits her time between homes in Vancouver Island and the British Isles with her partner, Russell Thomas, a BBC sound engineer.
The actress is stepping into a new role as Eloise Page in a BBC Radio 4 drama about the CIA’s early days. Her move to the UK seems like a perfect fit, considering her Liverpool roots and her strong British heritage.
Kim first rose to fame in the ’80s with roles in *Police Academy* and *Mannequin*, but it was her groundbreaking portrayal of Samantha Jones in *Sex and the City* that truly put her on the map.
Samantha, a bold and unapologetic PR executive, was a trailblazing character who captured the hearts of viewers. Despite the on-screen success, Cattrall’s relationship with her co-stars was marred by salary disputes and public drama.
Yet, Cattrall has always been clear about her stance, focusing on professional integrity over public gossip.
Now, Cattrall is savoring a life more attuned to her personal desires.
She’s emphasized enjoying her time, both personally and professionally, saying, “I want to choose who I spend time with.” She’s also been open about her decision to leave Samantha Jones behind, sharing that she felt she had enough of the character by the end of the second film.
Reconnecting with British Heritage
Cattrall’s recent activities reflect a deep connection to her British heritage.
She and Russell have been seen enjoying various UK attractions, including a memorable visit to the Sandringham Estate and a charming owl sanctuary in Norfolk.
She’s also become an ambassador for Kew Gardens and frequently explores London’s art scene.
Royal Connections and British Charm
Kim’s affection for the UK extends to royal affairs as well. She and Russell attended the King’s Coronation and Cattrall’s Instagram posts often celebrate British culture.
From attending Wimbledon in a stylish pink suit to exploring festive light shows, she’s embracing her British lifestyle with enthusiasm.
As Cattrall continues to build her life around her British roots and new projects, she reflects on her journey with gratitude, finding joy in every moment.
