Sex and the City, a popular TV series, revolved around the relationships of four women: Carrie, Samantha, Charlotte, and Miranda. Throughout the show, these characters experienced their fair share of flings, short-term relationships, and enduring partnerships. Particularly, the romantic relationships of Carrie with Mr. Big and Aidan Shaw were heavily emphasized and became integral to the show’s plot. Fans debate whether Big or Aidan was better suited for Carrie, but ultimately, she ended up with Big in the series, subsequent movies, and the reboot series, And Just Like That…
In the reboot series, we find Carrie as a widow after Mr. Big’s unexpected death on his Peloton. Season 1 follows her journey as she copes with grief and tries to move forward in her life, including her romantic life. However, she’s not jumping into a new relationship with just anyone. As a thrilling twist for fans, Aidan makes a return and is ready to win Carrie’s heart again. With anticipation building, let’s take a look back at their love story and prepare for the next chapter of their relationship.
Carrie and Aidan’s relationship began in Season 3, after Carrie’s tumultuous relationship with Big ended for good. They first meet when Stanford introduces Carrie to Aidan, a handsome furniture designer. Their interaction is like a scene from a romantic movie, with Aidan’s dog bringing them together. Their relationship feels genuinely special for Carrie, and she makes changes, like quitting smoking, to make it work. Aidan takes things slow, building an emotional connection before physical intimacy, which is a new experience for Carrie. Despite her lingering feelings for Big, Carrie recognizes that Aidan is a perfect match and fully commits to their relationship.
However, Carrie’s heart remains tied to Big, and their paths cross unexpectedly. Big confides in Carrie about his unhappy marriage, creating tension in her relationship with Aidan. The longing for Big leads to an affair, and Carrie eventually confesses to Aidan, who can’t look past her infidelity. They break up during Charlotte’s wedding.
In Season 4, Carrie tries dating other people but realizes she still has feelings for Aidan. She confesses her unresolved emotions to him, and Aidan reveals that he feels the same way. However, their reunion is challenging, as they must confront lingering issues and unresolved wounds. Aidan discovers Carrie’s continued contact with Big and gives her an ultimatum: either he forgives her, or they break up. They decide to give their relationship another chance, and Aidan proposes later in the season. He moves into her apartment and buys it to build a life together.
Carrie’s self-sabotaging tendencies resurface as they plan a wedding and renovate the apartment. Aidan proposes eloping, but Carrie realizes he lacks trust due to her past affair. They break up once again, with Aidan ultimately moving out of the apartment. Carrie buys back the apartment with the help of her friends, beginning her healing process.
In later encounters, Carrie and Aidan bump into each other as exes typically do. They meet again in Season 6, where Aidan is happily married with children. Their paths cross once more in Sex and the City 2 during a trip to Abu Dhabi. Over dinner, they reminisce and catch up, but nothing further happens, and Carrie reconciles with Big by the end of the film.
Now, 13 years after their last encounter, Aidan returns into Carrie’s life. Though we know they will rekindle their romance, the question remains: will it work out better for them this time? Will they finally find their happy ending? Was Aidan always meant to be the one for Carrie? Only time will tell.
