Actor Chris Noth has insisted he’s not guilty of sexual misconduct as he spoke out for the first time about the claims that hit pause on his career.
The Sex and the City star, 68 - who says he’s still close with his former castmates - told USA Today that he had consensual encounters outside his marriage, reports the Daily Mail.
“I strayed on my wife, and it’s devastating to her and not a very pretty picture ... what it isn’t, is a crime,” he said.
Noth has been married to Tara Wilson, 38, since 2012. The pair dated for 10 years before marrying and have two children, Orion, 15, and Keats, 3.
The actor admitted he’d been unfaithful, saying: “You give yourself the same excuses that many men do; it’s just a little side dance and it’s fun.
