Sarah Jessica Parker has finally endorsed her Sex and the City cast-mate Cynthia Nixon in her run for Governor of New York, 10 days after Nixon publicly announced she was standing.

On Thursday, Parker released a statement on Instagram that read:

A mother An activist An advocate A fighter A NY'er A dear friend  Running for Governor of our great state. My sister on and off screen, you have my love, support and vote. To learn more, read about @cynthiaenixon or donate go to cynthiafornewyork.com Xx, SJ

Parker wasn't the first of Nixon's Sex and the City co-stars to publicly state her support. Within hours of Nixon releasing her campaign video, Kristin Davis, who played Charlotte in the HBO show, tweeted her endorsement:

Cattrall is the last of the quartet to fully endorse Nixon. A few days after Nixon announced she was running Cattrall posted this rather formal statement on Twitter:

Things have not been easy in the Sex and the City camp in recent months. A long-rumoured spat between Cattrall and Parker dominated headlines after Cattrall claimed the show's star and producer was difficult to work with.
