Sex And The City star Chris Noth has welcomed his second child - a baby boy called Keats.

The 65-year-old actor - best known for playing Mr Big in the SATC franchise - and his actress wife Tara Wilson, 37, have named their new son after the English romantic poet John Keats.

Noth announced on Instagram: “Down from the heavens comes our second son- Keats! ‘A thing of beauty is a joy forever.’”

Noth’s Sex And The City co-star Kristin Davis was quick to congratulate them, commenting: “Oh my goodness ! He is so perfect and beautiful ! Congratulations to you all.”

Announcing Wilson’s second pregnancy in September 2019, Noth said: “Orion is getting a brother - I better get my a** in shape.”

The couple’s first son Orion - named after the star constellation - was born in January 2008.

Noth and Wilson began dating almost 20 years ago when Wilson was working as a bartender.

The couple broke up numerous times at the start of the relationship, much like Carrie and Mr Big, before marrying in 2012.

Wilson told Canadian magazine Maclean’s in 2008: "At the beginning, I’d say we broke up every two weeks. Then it was every two months. Then it was every six months.”

Noth added: “We’d break up so often and I’d be like, ‘That’s it! It’s over!’ Then a few weeks later I’d be like, ‘Why am I missing her so much? Get over it goddammit!’ It got to be too much of a hassle to be apart.”
