Miranda Hobbes has a new love interest in the latest season of "And Just Like That…". The show, which is a continuation of "Sex and the City", premiered its third season recently, bringing fresh twists to the beloved characters’ lives.
Miranda, played by Cynthia Nixon, had a rocky romance with Che Diaz, portrayed by Sara Ramirez, in Season 2. However, Season 3 kicks off with an unexpected encounter for Miranda. In the first episode, titled “Outlook Good,” she meets a nun named Mary, played by Rosie O’Donnell, at a lesbian bar. Their night takes an intimate turn as they end up together in a hotel room.
Mary, who hails from a small town near Winnipeg and works for "Compassion of the Unhoused," surprises Miranda by revealing that she is a virgin and has never been with anyone before. This shocking confession comes after they share a passionate night together, leaving Mary exclaiming how electric and natural the experience felt.
Miranda later shares the details of her night with Carrie, played by Sarah Jessica Parker. She humorously explains that Mary never mentioned her status as a nun until after their encounter. Carrie’s reaction is equally amusing, as she quips, “So, you deflowered the Virgin Mary?”
The episode also features Carrie dealing with her long-distance relationship with Aidan, which leads to a cringeworthy phone sex scene that gets interrupted by an accidental car horn. This mix of humor and candid moments continues to resonate with fans who appreciate the show’s blend of personal growth and relatable situations.
As the season unfolds, Miranda’s journey into dating women and nonbinary people becomes a central theme. Nixon has mentioned that Miranda is exploring this new chapter of her life while figuring out how to navigate the dating scene again.
The season promises to deliver more surprises, with guest appearances from notable stars like Patti LuPone and Mehcad Brooks, who will add their own flair to the ongoing stories. Overall, Season 3 of "And Just Like That…" is shaping up to be an exciting ride for fans eager to see how these characters evolve.
