Even though her character Charlotte on "Sex and the City" (1998) was the first to get married, Kristin herself is the only one out of all four actresses never to have been married in real life.

Was the last of the four main actresses on Sex and the City (1998) to receive an Emmy nomination for her work on the series. She received her only nomination for her work on the series' final season.

Her parents divorced when she was a baby, and she was adopted by her stepfather shortly after he married her mother in 1968.

Has two adopted children: daughter Gemma Rose Davis (adopted in 2011), and son Wilson Davis (adopted in 2018).

[on her character, Charlotte, from Sex and the City (1998)] She's really very funny. I would never describe Charlotte as a prude. Maybe at the start, but that was in comparison to the other girls. She wasn't willing to do the stuff they were doing and I mean, thank goodness! I think she has some themes, like wanting security, that many women relate to. That's what's so great about our show, plus it shows the different choices that women have.

[on her character, Brooke, on Place Melrose (1992)] Oh my God, it was awful! One time I was in a department store and, as I was walking around, I could hear women whispering, "There's Brooke--that bitch!" I wanted to scream, "I'm not Brooke, I just play her on TV!"

[on her childhood in South Carolina] We were very rich, culturally. One Sunday each month we would do this thing called Chamber Pots at somebody's house. A classical music group would come over and we'd have dinner. There were 30 people [parents and kids] and we'd sit on the floor and listen to this beautiful music. I never appreciated it until I was grown up and realized how lucky I was to be exposed to so much, so young.

[on motherhood] I'm open. Adoption is wonderful. I think there are many different ways to do it. I'm an only child, so it's hard to picture the whole multi-child situation. Cynthia [Cynthia Nixon] has two children and it is unbelievable the amount of work involved. I have the most respect for it in the world, but I'm not sure if I'm cut out for it.

It's nice to be with someone, but I don't think you need to be in a relationship to feel complete. That would be really sad.
