The Carrie Bradshaws within us all are mourning across the nation.
Sarah Jessica Parker’s doctor told her she has permanent foot damage, and can no longer wear heels.
“I went to a foot doctor and he said, ‘Your foot does things it shouldn’t be able to do. That bone there… You’ve created that bone. It doesn’t belong there,” she told Net-a-Porter. “The moral of the story is, the chickens are coming home to roost.
