John Corbett’s final moments in Sex and the City proved that his character had moved on from his ill-fated relationship with Carrie Bradshaw. Later, as season 6 progressed, fans of the series started to notice a little timing problem. Corbett’s character, Aidan Shaw, moved on from Carrie and had a baby way too quickly. In fact, Aidan would have had to have moved at warp speed with his wife to make the timing work. Corbett has the answer fans have been waiting for. It isn’t anything juicy like Aidan was a secret cheat, though. The writers didn’t think about the timeline, he said. 

John Corbett’s character wasn’t supposed to come back in season 4

John Corbett wasn’t supposed to appear in Sex and the City for multiple seasons. The famed actor revealed that he originally signed on for a limited number of episodes. When he and Carrie broke up in season 3, he was supposed to walk off into the sunset. Fans were not having it.
