'Sex And The City' Author Candace Bushnell To Divorce

Candace had been married to Charles Askegard for nine years — so sad!

Sex And The City scribe Candace Bushnell and her ballet dancer husband Charles Askegard are getting a divorce.

Candace, 53, and Charles, 43, are keeping things amicable through their split, the New York Post reports.

“We had some wonderful times in our nine-year marriage, and I still care about Charles as a person,” Candace told the publication through her rep. “I respect his desire to pursue his own happiness and hope that we will continue to be friends in the future.”
