And just like that, Carrie and Franklyn are over.
I have my own thoughts, but it’s not up to me.
It’s up to the writers.

Although Franklyn tells Carrie he wants more, she’s not ready yet.
So, just like that, they’re kaput.
They’re not soulmates, executive producer Michael Patrick King tellsGlamour.

They just had comfortable sex.
Some people have many loves.
(Or maybe forAiden to enter the picture again?)

Ivan is a wonderful actor and stunning, says King.
And then slowly, slowly, slowly, he becomes a person.
The kiss at the end was to show that anything is possible now that she’slet go of Big.

It’s a surprise.
With that said, King didn’t want Franklyn to be seen as a sure thing either.
Theydon’t even know what their chemistry is.
So we put them in bed together.
Look, I don’t want you to know anything, King says with a laugh.
I don’t want you to knowwhat scene the other nail polish is inthat [Carrie wears].
So I’m not going to tell you whether Franklyn will be back.
But I was really happy.
And that’s the through line.
Life’s too short to not try something new like poaching an egg or having casual sex.
