Hello, Lover! Carrie's Many Men on 'Sex and the City'

Craig Blankenhorn/Warner Bros.

Aidan Shaw (John Corbett)

Furniture designer Aidan (John Corbett) was everything Mr. Big wasn't -- sensitive, attentive and ready to settle down with Carrie. She could never get past her feelings for Big, however, which led to two big breakups with Aidan. The first one came in season 3 after she admitted to Aidan, on Charlotte's (Kristin Davis) wedding day, that she and her married ex had been carrying on an affair. Ultimately, Carrie managed to win Aidan's trust again, but when he proposed and she rejected him in season 4, he moved out of her apartment (which he owned), and served her with an eviction notice. Aidan later married a fellow furniture designer and had a son named Tate (played by Sarah Jessica Parker's real-life son James Wilkie). In the Sex and the City 2 movie, will Aidan finally get in the way of Carrie and Big -- for good?
