Emmy-winning actress Cynthia Nixon, best-known for her role in “Sex and the City,” was married to Danny Mozes from 1988 to 2003 and the couple have two children together. Since 2004, Nixon has been in a relationship with a woman, Christine Marinoni."In terms of sexual orientation I don't really feel I've changed... I'd been with men all my life, and I'd never fallen in love with a woman. But when I did, it didn't seem so strange. I'm just a woman in love with another woman," she told the Daily Telegraph in 2007. In 2009, she announced her engagement to Marinoni. The couple have a son together. Reuters
