The war of words continues between former Sex and the City co-stars Sarah Jessica Parker and Kim Cattrall, only this time radio host Andy Cohen has got involved.

Things kicked off after Cattrall’s brother passed away. Having sent her condolences over Instagram, Parker was messaged back that her love and support wasn’t needed.

After recently interviewing Parker, 52, host Cohen, 49, has now blasted Cattrall, 61, on his radio show, saying there’s ‘only one person fighting,’ and that it all seems like a one-sided affair.

‘I was thinking about it over the weekend, and I was like, well, she follows Kim on Instagram, Kim posted about her brother dying, and she expressed her condolences on the post. I would not call that exploiting a tragedy. Did she say something bad? I don’t understand. I don’t get it.

‘I thought it was fake. I was like, ‘There’s no way Kim Cattrall has posted this on her Instagram.’ This is a woman who is in the middle of grieving the loss of her brother, which is tragic and sad,’ he continued.

He went on to defend Parker: ‘Sarah only said the nicest things about her [Kim]. The only thing she’s ever commented about the movie or about Kim not wanting to do the movie was that she was disappointed that the studio pulled the plug on it. I don’t get it. It’s a cat fight of one, from where I see it.’

The fued started back when Cattrall revealed to Piers Morgan on an episode of Life Stories just last year that her and SJP were in fact not friends and merely colleagues, despite working on the hugely successful show together for six years, from 1998 until 2004.

Parker since said she found the comments ‘very upsetting’.

Their public spat reignited when Parker shared her condolences in an Instagram comment to one of her posts over the passing of her brother.

But Cattrall fired back with a scathing response to her allegedly faux concern.

‘My Mom asked me today “When will that @sarahjessicaparker, that hypocrite, leave you alone?” Your continuous reaching out is a painful reminder of how cruel you really were then and now,’ she blasted to her 580,000 followers.

‘Let me make this VERY clear. (If I haven’t already) You are not my family. You are not my friend. So I’m writing to tell you one last time to stop exploiting our tragedy in order to restore your ‘nice girl’ persona,’ she finished.

An apparent actor shared their experience of the SatC set on Twitter, implying SJP was the antagonist and Cattrall was the ‘nice one’.

Previously, the Hocus Pocus star had, prior to Cattrall’s brother’s death, spoken to Cohen about her feelings on her claim they didn’t get on. Talking to him on Watch What Happens Live, the host asked her about her thoughts on what her former co-star had said.

Parker claimed she was ‘heartbroken’, saying how she remembers their time on set very differently: ‘That’s not the way I recall our experience.’

‘It’s sad but I always think that what ties us together is this singular experience. It was a professional experience but it became personal because it was years and years of our lives. I’m hoping that eclipses anything that’s been recently spoken,’ she said.

In complete contrast, Cattrall responded to a heartfelt Instagram post from former co-star Cynthia Nixon: ‘Cynthia, hearing your voice meant so much to me. Thank you for reaching out. Love Kim #SexandtheCity.’, proving that there is some beef with SJP specifically.

The pair acted together in the 2008 film Sex and the City, as well as the 2010 sequel aptly named Sex and the City 2.
