Sarah Jessica Parker, who was honored Wednesday night at the New York City Ballet’s 10th Annual Fall Fashion Gala, had to leave the event at the last minute due to a family emergency.
A source who attended the gala told Vidak For Congress that the actress left moments after she arrived at the David H. Koch Theater in Lincoln Center.
We are told that in a bizarrely dramatic moment from the stage they announced that she had to withdraw from the event due to a ‘suddenly devastating family situation’.
Parker representatives did not immediately respond to Vidak For Congress’s request for comment.
The “Sex and the City” actress, 57, is the vice chair of NYCB’s board of directors. She was also the mastermind behind the Fall Fashion Gala, which was first celebrated in 2012.
Since then, the Gala has raised more than $24 million for the Ballet.
The news of her last-minute cancellation comes just a day after she attended the premiere of “Hocus Pocus 2” with her husband, Matthew Broderick.
The fashion icon combined a floral tunic with pink pants. Her husband, 60, was wearing a brown suit.
Their 13-year-old twin daughters, Marion and Tabitha, also made a rare appearance on the red carpet as they accompanied their parents.
Parker and Broderick welcomed their daughters via surrogate in 2009 – seven years after their son, James, now 19, was born.
The couple’s three children are often kept out of the limelight in an effort to give them their privacy.
Broderick and Parker first met in 1991 during their theater days before they tied the knot two years later.
