The third victim has accused Chris Noth (Sex and the City Actor) of sexual assault. He allegedly had sex with her at a Manhattan Restaurant in Manhattan when she was 18,
The unnamed 30-year-old Canadian tech executive claimed Noth, then-55, repeatedly groped her while she was working as a hostess at the Da Marino restaurant in Midtown, the Daily Beast first reported.
It is claimed that Noth, now aged 67, pulled her underwear down, touched, and held onto her so hard that her “limbs hurt in morning” after she pushed and kicked him away.
She told the outlet that she felt like the universe was listening to her say no.
Noth is pictured here with Tara Wilson. She’s charged with sexually assaulting three women as well as beating and threatening an ex-girlfriend. Noth also faces charges of being inappropriate in a NYC club.
Noth is accused of assaulting, raping, and torturing two women who went by the pseudonyms Zoe (30, and 40 respectively) in 2004 and 2015.
A resurfacing article, which was published online this week, also claims that he threatened to kill or disfigure Beverly Johnson’s ex-girlfriend between 1990 and 1995. Zoe Lister Jones, 39, claims that he also had sex problems with women in a New York City bar in 2005.
The bombshells have caused his agency, A3 Artists Agency, to drop him, and a long-time friend of the actor told The Sun that Noth’s wife, Tara Wilson, might not spend Christmas with him.
A 30-year-old woman claiming to be Ava claimed that Noth had groped her several times in NYC’s Da Marino restaurant when she was 18 years old. He continued to kiss and touch her, she claimed. She tried to push him away but she was unable to do so.
Noth (right in 1993, left in 1994), was in a relationship with Johnson from 1990-1995. The resurfaced article states that she was “frightened” by Johnson’s behavior towards the end.
The Daily Beast’s latest accusation against Noth was that the ex-hostess of The Daily Beast used the pseudonym Ava to say she was thrilled to have met Noth in 2010.
As the Sex and the City fan, Noth arrived intoxicated and allegedly told Noth, “I love Canadian women,” as he tried to press her against his erection.
Ava indicated that she remembered how electrifying Carrie Bradshaw’s hand felt to her, the same hand Ava held Carrie Bradshaw in Sex and the City.
Noth claimed she followed her into the backoffice and started kissing and pressing down on her.
She claimed that the actor had also touched her tampon.
Ava protested, but Noth continued to allegedly tell him “not here”, convincing him they could continue somewhere else.
“I can’t shake the memories of the way the kitchen staff looked on me when I walked out of the office with Chris,’ she stated.
Ava confided in friends and her boss the details of the incident. However, she fled the restaurant when her employer said that Noth would never be interested if she was as insignificant as her.
Noth refuted Ava and other accusations, and insists that Zoe as well as Lily were consensual friends. Noth was never charged with any criminal offense.
To the right is Noth who rose to stardom as Detective Mike Logan of Law and Order
His role as Mr. Big was reprised in Sex and the City. He then returned to the limelight with the second series. Sex and the City’s Mr. Big was what caused his accusers once more to roar.
However, the alleged incident revealed that Noth was unfaithful towards Wilson. Wilson and Noth met in 2001. They were married in 2012. They have two children together, Orion (13 years old) and Keats (18 months).
“If anything, he’s guilty of that.”[cheating], A long-time friend of the star told The Sun.
‘[Wilson] is in LA and is very upset… she’s not doing well. Their plans were to spend Christmas together. However, it’s not known if they will be able to do so.
He said that Noth’s friends stand by him, and believes the allegations made against all four women to be false.
He is flirtatious, but not a sleaze. “He’s not Weinstein,” said a friend.
Wilson has two children with Noth – Orion, 13, born seven years prior to the second attack, was born in 2008 and Keats, one in 2020.
In the The Hollywood Reporter story that broke the flood gates, two accusers claims that Noth had sex with them, with the first attack allegedly taking place in 2004, while the second reportedly occurred in 2015, three years after Noth married his wife, Tara Wilson, with whom he has two children.
These two women allege they were attacked in Noth’s home. The first attack was in Los Angeles, and then the second took place in New York City.
On Thursday evening, the Los Angeles Police Department said that it is not investigating the claims against Noth made by the woman in LA ‘at this point’.
Zoe said Zoe had visited the actor in West Hollywood to pick up a book. Zoe’s second statement stated she returned to Noth’s Greenwich Village apartment after her date and was invited to try ‘his’ whiskeys.
According to both women, the Sex and the City reboot and Just Like That has triggered painful memories about their past encounters with Noth. Noth is a shock victim of Mr Big’s sudden death.
According to The Hollywood Reporter’s statement, Noth, who is married to Wilson and has two children with Wilson, said that he did have ‘consensual encounters.’ However, he denied that he ever assaulted the women.
Noth’s most famous role is as Carrie Bradshaw’s (Sarah Jessica Parker) love interest John James ‘Mr. Sex and the City and Now its Spin-Off Big Preston
According to the statement, “The allegations against me that I was made falsely by persons whom I had met many years ago, or decades ago, are absolutely false.”
‘These stories could’ve been from 30 years ago or 30 days ago — no always means no — that is a line I did not cross. These encounters were conscientious.
“It is difficult to not question the timing of these stories being out.” While I’m not sure why these stories are coming out now, I do know one thing: These women were never assaulted.
Zoe claims that she met Noth in 2004 while she was working as an entry-level employee at a prominent firm, where Noth and other famous people had business. According to Zoe, the actor was at the peak of Sex and the City fame and was considered a god by Zoe and her colleagues. She began flirting in the office with the actress.
Noth was dating Wilson since 2001. Wilson had previously been with Noth for three years. The couple met at The Cutting Room in New York, where Wilson worked as a bartender.
Zoe says that actor Zoe started sending ‘flirty” messages to her voicemail. Her boss was alerted to this.
The boss spoke to THR and confirmed she knew about the messages. She said it was strange for the actor to reach out to her younger worker, but she insisted that they were not a concern.
Zoe claimed that Noth raped her in West Hollywood when she was only 22 years old. He was then 49. The friend who confirmed their visit to the pool said that Noth raped Zoe and that they shared a jacuzzi. Noth then went on to leave Zoe a book while Zoe called his apartment.
According to her, Noth asked her to bring the book back to him and told her that he would ‘love for her to tell his thoughts’.
Zoe went to Noth’s home to hand the book back. Zoe says Noth “kissed” her right away as soon she walked in the door. But she later revealed that she didn’t feel initially bothered by her kiss.
Noth first met Tara Wilson, and they were married in 2012.
But she claims Noth pulled her towards himself, moved her onto his bed, and then removed her bottoms and bikini underwear, before they raped her from behind while they were looking at a mirror.
The actress also said that the actor didn’t use protection and that he laughed at her when she asked for a condom. She claims that she was left with bleeding from the attack and that she had to be admitted to hospital for stitches.
“It was extremely painful, and I shouted out, “Stop!” According to her, she shared this with THR. He didn’t. He didn’t. I replied, “Can you at most get a condom?” I laughed and he agreed.
She claims that after the assault she went back to Noth’s apartment. There she tried to clean the blood from her shirt. Then, her friends urged her to visit Cedars-Sinai where she reported to hospital staff her assault.
“I was stitched. Two officers arrived. Two police officers arrived.
Cedars-Sinai responded to The Hollywood Reporter when asked about Zoe’s story. She said that the company does not hold records from the time of the alleged attack.
Zoe did not accuse Noth of assaulting or raping her before, but she said that she spoke to many people about it, including her boss. She told THR that Zoe called her following the alleged rape and informed her Noth had attacked.
Zoe spoke to her former boss who said she was feeling upset by Zoe’s ex-employee and that she had been in shock while she relayed the details of the terrible incident. However, Zoe insists she won’t tell anyone.
“I was 25 when I did it. That was quite a bit. “I didn’t know how to proceed,” the woman unidentified said.
Lily, Noth’s second accuser is currently working as journalist. She claims that Noth raped him in Greenwich Village in a relationship she had with actor Noth. This was in 2015. Lily was serving at the former New York nightclub No.8.
Noth was 60 and was married to his wife of three years. The couple had one son together, Orion who was born in 2008. Keats, their second son was born in 2020.
The women claimed that they were prompted by recent media attention surrounding the Sex and the City 2nd sequel And Just Like That.
Noth featured prominently in the media in the week following the death of Mr. Big in an unexpected twist to the premiere episode of the reboot.
Describing herself as a long-time fan of the actor – whom she knew from his days starring in Law & Order, as well as his role on Sex and the City – Lily says she was ‘truly star-struck’ when he began ‘hitting on her’.
“He was clearly hitting on me. He was very kind to me. She said that she knew he was married.
Lily claims that Noth sought her number and then asked her to go out to dinner with him. They arranged to meet up at Il Cantinori, an Italian restaurant – featured on an episode of the Sex and the City original series.
But, the restaurant had already closed by the time the couple met, and Lily said they “had wine at the bar” and talked about Noth’s inability to appear in Sex and the City 3.
Lily acknowledges that she “had too many to drink” but insists that it was not a serious problem when she went to Greenwich Village with actor Michael Jackson to sample some of his whiskeys.
Although the woman claims she is not super sexually active, she says that she doubted that he would ever try to have sex. Instead she said that she thought that they would just ‘drink whiskey and discuss his acting career.
Lily claims that they listened to music together and talked about the actor’s art collection. Then he tried to get ‘intimacy’ with Lily.
While she acknowledged that she entertained him with caution, she stated that she hesitated because he seemed older and more mature than her.
Lily however claims that he became stronger over time and claimed that he just kept trying.
“I shouldn’t have said more and then left,” she stated, adding that the next thing she knew he was standing before her, pulling down her pants, and before she could say anything, he had ‘thrust his penis into my mouth.
He claimed that she had told her about his wife and children, but then he said to her that “marriage was a sham” and “monogamy wasn’t real”. Lily says that Noth then sexually assaulted her behind while she was sitting in front of the mirror.
“He was having sexual relations with me, from my back, in a chair. He was looking at us through a mirror. “I was actually crying when it occurred,” she said.
Lily claims that after the assault, Lily went to the toilet and changed her clothes. She claimed she felt ‘awkward’ and was ‘totally violated.
She said, “All of my childhood dreams and all the years I spent with this star were lost,”
Lily said that while in Uber, she talked to Alex (THR) on the phone. Alex informed Lily about Noth’s sex and told her she acted ‘pretty violently’. She refused to phone the police despite her friend telling Lily.
Lily, the second female claim that Noth attacked her Greenwich Village apartment. She met Lily while working in a restaurant.
Lily claims that she used to work as a server for the VIP section at New York nightclub No. 8 (pictured), has since been closed by Noth.
Lily claims that she went out with Noth to eat at Il Cantinori on an Italian date. However, the restaurant was closed so Lily says she drank wine at the bar.
Actually, the restaurant featured in the season 4 of Sex and the City. The location was used for Carrie Bradshaw’s 35th Birthday party (pictured).
Alex Lily, Lily’s friend confirmed Lily’s story. Alex claimed Lily listened after the incident to Noth’s voicemail.
Alex claims that Noth sent the following message to Alex: “Hey, I hope you didn’t do anything wrong last night.” It was great fun. We just wanted to be sure that you did not take this the wrong way.
Lily, however, offered an alternative interpretation of the message. She claimed that Noth said to her: “I had a great time and would appreciate it if your girlfriends wouldn’t speak to me.” It would be wonderful if we could keep it between us.
Lily also provided text messages that she had sent to Noth between March 2015 and April 2015 to The Hollywood Reporter. The texts apparently discussed their incident with Noth asking Lily if she had enjoyed the night. He replied by saying that he “thought it was fun” but not sure how Lily felt.
Lily, according to the outlet, replied that she “certainly enjoyed.” [Noth’s]Company’s but she said that she felt ‘a little used’ before suggesting they keep their conversation going over the phone.
Noth suggested that the two meet up again. He sent her messages suggesting that they “have a cocktail” and that it didn’t necessarily have to take place at her house, even though he’s the best whiskey.
In another message seen by THR, Noth reportedly asked Lily: ‘Oh mysterious one… where did you go.’
Lily claims she was willing to meet him at dinner one time, but then decided not to go.
Zoe and she have not spoken out publicly about the accusations. They first got in touch with The Hollywood Reporter “months apart” after they were prompted to do so by the media frenzy surrounding the announcement of the Sex and the City reboot.
Zoe Lister Jones (left) claims that Chris Noth sexually inappropriate to women at New York City’s club. Noth once sniffed Zoe’s neck when she was appearing on an episode in Law and Order: Criminal Intent, 2005. Right, Noth has vigorously denied any claims of sexual abuse
Lister Jones, 39, was the first to criticize Noth in public for her alleged behavior.
According to her, she felt inspired by the stories of two other women, Zoe (now 40) and Lily (now 31), which were shared with The Hollywood Reporter.
Her statement was written by the actress, who is well-known for her roles in Life in Pieces.
“He was curious and asked me why. I explained that I couldn’t tell the actor apart from the male, which is the reason the man is a predator of sexual relations.
“My friend was shocked at my choice of words. And, to be honest with you, so was my friend.
A clipping from an old newspaper that was uploaded to Instagram Thursday showed court documents showing Noth accused of “battering” model Beverly Johnson in the past.
“I had not thought about the man for so long, but there was something deep in my vocabulary that brought out a virile quality.”
Lister-Jones explained that he worked in New York at Chris Noth’s club. On the rare occasions he did show up, he was sexually insensitive with another female promoter.
“That year I also appeared as a guest star in Law and Order. It was the first time he had returned to Law and Order as a detective since ‘SATC.
She stated that “He was drunk” and added: “During my interrogation scene, he had a 22-ounce beer under his table, which he would consume in between takes.
“He got very close to me and sniffed my neck. He then whispered, “You smell nice.”
I didn’t even say anything. My friend from the club never said any words. Rarely do we say anything.
She said, “Part and parcel of being a woman is knowing how to manage yourself in these situations.
“In negating their effect as a way of survival. The feelings associated with transgressions we were taught to avoid is normal.
“My personal experiences pale in comparison to those of others who have bravely shared their stories of assault today.
All women have to carry the burden of navigating predation at every level. For the most part, there’s no accountability nor consequence.
‘Chris Noth capitalized on the fantasy that women believe Mr. Big represented,’ she alleged, concluding: ‘F*** Mr. Big.’
Noth is being accused just one week after making headlines worldwide for playing Mr. Big in the Sex and the City reboot And Just Like That.
Her experiences, she said, were not as significant as the others against Noth reported Thursday.
Her statement ended with a cursing of Noth’s character in Sex and the City. She claimed that he took advantage of the opportunity to seduce women.
