[Warning: The below contains MAJOR spoilers for the And Just Like That series finale “Party of One.”]
Let’s toast, with a cosmopolitan in hand, to the final episode of And Just Like That. The series finale dropped on August 14, just a few weeks after the surprise announcement that Season 3 would be the Sex and the City spinoff show’s last.
There’s never been a dull moment in the lives of Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker), Charlotte (Kristin Davis), and Miranda (Cynthia Nixon). From the devastating loss of Big (Chris Noth) in the first episode to Miranda and Che’s (Sara Ramirez) shocking kitchen hookup as Carrie peed herself to Charlotte and Harry (Evan Handler) dealing with his cancer diagnosis, the trio of friends has navigated all of life’s highs and lows. (Our girl Samantha is still living her best life in London.)
With this seemingly being the final chapter for the women, how did And Just Like That end? Did Carrie find a new love or reunite with an old one? Did the series finale feature any last-minute twists? Let’s break down where every Sex and the City character ended up in the And Just Like That series finale — and don’t worry, we didn’t forget about the newbies!
And Just Like That, All Seasons, Streaming Now, HBO Max
Carrie Bradshaw
After more than 25 years of chasing after love and men, Carrie Bradshaw ends up on her o… and that’s a great thing. Her rekindled relationship with Aidan (John Corbett) didn’t work out, and her romance with Duncan (Jonathan Cake) was just a fling. “I have to quit thinking maybe a man and start accepting maybe just me,” she tells Charlotte in the episode. “And it’s not a tragedy. It’s a fact. I just have to start accepting it full-stop. Instead of bending her worldview for a man, she can finally figure out what she wants. No matter what, Carrie’s always going to be fabulous.
Miranda Hobbes
Miranda Hobbes has had quite the journey on And Just Like That. Her marriage to Steve (David Eigenberg) fell apart, leading Miranda on a path to discover her queer identity. Her romance with Che didn’t work out, but she did find love with Joy (Dolly Wells) in Season 3. With everything settled in her love life, Miranda and Steve will still be coparenting Brady (Niall Cunningham), who is set to make them grandparents!
Charlotte York Goldenblatt & Harry Goldenblatt
The only original Sex and the City couple left standing. Charlotte York Goldenblatt and Harry Goldenblatt remained a solid unit throughout And Just Like That. They weathered any and all complications together. They faced every challenge, including everything Lily (Cathy Ang) and Rose (Alexa Swinton) threw at them, as well as Harry’s recent cancer diagnosis. In the end, Charlotte and Harry’s love is stronger than ever.
Brady Hobbes
Babies are having babies! Earlier in Season 3, Brady dropped the bombshell on his parents that he got a girl pregnant. Mia (Ella Stiller) shows up to Thanksgiving dinner in the series finale, and her dynamic with Brady is heated, to say the least. It’s unclear whether or not these two will develop real feelings for each other, or if it’ll strictly be a coparenting relationship.
Steve Brady
In a surprise twist, Steve Brady took the Brady baby news worse than Miranda. Steve’s fury led Brady to move in with Miranda. In the series finale, Steve and Miranda discuss Brady’s situation and vow to tackle becoming grandparents together. “There’s no way our grandkid is not going to know us,” he says to Miranda.
Anthony Marentino
Anthony Marentino (Mario Cantone) and Stanford Blatch’s (Willie Garson) marriage wasn’t meant to last, but the Hot Fellas owner did find love again with Giuseppe (Sebastiano Pigazzi). The couple moves in together in Season 3 and gets engaged.
What happens to Lisa Todd Wexley?
The sensational Lisa Todd Wexley (Nicole Ari Parker) was a new character introduced in And Just Like That, and she became an integral part of the series. In Season 3, Lisa develops a work crush on Marion (Mehcad Brooks), but they never cross the line. Lisa stresses in the series finale that they have to keep their relationship platonic if they want to continue working together. Lisa is still happily married to Herbert Wexley (Christopher Jackson), who begins to come out of his funk following his election loss in the series finale.
Do Seema and Adam end up together?
Our girl Seema (Sarita Choudhury) found that forever love! In Season 3, Seema and Adam (Logan Marshall-Green) fall into a passionate relationship that starts out with no strings. However, they develop a deep love for each other. In the series finale, Seema faces a hiccup with Adam when he laughs at the idea of marriage, something she was raised to want. Adam tells Carrie that he wants to have a “lifetime” with Seema, and they spend Thanksgiving together.
