Kristin Davis, known for her role on "Sex and the City," shared a regretful incident on her podcast, recounting how she lent $5,000 to an actor who was struggling during the 1990s, only to have him ghost her afterward. Reflecting on the situation, she labeled it a "horrible mistake" and cautioned listeners against lending money to romantic partners, as it often complicates the relationship dynamics.
During the podcast episode with former co-star Sarah Wynter, Davis elaborated on the circumstances that led to her financial assistance. She remembered visiting his home, where notices about overdue bills cluttered the space, a sign of his financial troubles. The actor had also suffered an accident that left him unable to pursue auditions, prompting Davis to offer her help, believing he had talent and deserved support.
Despite her willingness to assist, Davis soon felt the impact of her decision when he ceased communication altogether. Even years later, she expressed a desire for some acknowledgment from him, reflecting on the emotional toll the situation took. Lastly, Davis hinted that she had fallen into a similar situation again, humorously suggesting that it would be the last time she made such a financial mistake based on a relationship. Her podcast aims to reveal behind-the-scenes stories from her career, including her time on the iconic HBO series.

If you’re lending money to someone, you should know them well enough to expect a return.

Everyone makes mistakes; being open about them helps others avoid the same pitfalls.

Completely unnecessary to share this story. She's just looking for sympathy now.

Every time a celebrity does something like this, it makes me question their judgment.

This is why people say never mix money and relationships; she should have known better.

This just sounds like a bad decision on her part. You can't rescue everyone, Kristin!

Lending money to someone who can’t handle their finances is asking for trouble.
