SEX and The City star JASON Lewis has sided with Sarah Jessica Parker following the ongoing feud with her former costar Kim Cattrall.

The actor, 48, famously played Kim’s on-screen boyfriend Smith Jerrod in the hit TV show and movie, but surprisingly is supporting Sarah, who played Carrie Bradshaw.

Speaking to Closer magazine, he revealed he hasn't spoken to his former friend Kim since her public fallout with Sarah Jessica, 54- and professed his adoration for the Divorce star.

He said: "I haven't spoken to Kim since then, to be honest.

"We haven't fallen out, but I've made no secret of the fact I love Sarah and she was only ever great to me, so I think the way she was treated was unfair.

"I'm all about being nice, so if you can't say something nice, don't say it," he added.

"I'm just sad the third movie never got to be made, as I would have loved to have been a part of it."

Although it may come as a shock to SATC fans, it's not the first time the 48-year-old has spoken out about Kim and Sarah's public spat.

In 2018, he told news show KLTA 5: "If you can’t say something nice, don’t say anything at all.

“Listen, I would have to say that Sarah was always so lovely and such a consummate professional, and I think that people should remember their graciousness and the things that have been given to them.

"I’m going to stop there because I’ve got nothing good to say."

He was then pushed to confirm what he was saying and was asked if he was Team Sarah.

"I might just have to say yeah, yeah. What a gracious lady; she was always so good to me," he replied, making his feelings very clear.

After years of speculation about on-set feuding between the two actresses during the six-season and two-movie run, the spat finally spilled out.

Two years ago, reports emerged that claimed that third movie had been scuppered by Cattrall's diva demands; something she denied.

But that was only the tip of the iceberg as their troubled relationship reached a boiling point in 2018 following the death of Kim's brother Christopher.

The 63-year-old hit back at SJP insisting she "doesn't need" her support after the latter reached out to Kim in the wake of her brother Christopher's sad passing.

Kim wrote on Instagram: "I don't need your love or support at this tragic time @sarahjessicaparker."

And captioning the picture, she added: "My Mom asked me today 'When will that @sarahjessicaparker, that hypocrite, leave you alone?'

"Your continuous reaching out is a painful reminder of how cruel you really were then and now.

She continued: "Let me make this VERY clear. (If I haven’t already) You are not my family. You are not my friend.

"So I'm writing to tell you one last time to stop exploiting our tragedy in order to restore your ‘nice girl' persona."
