Kristin Davis’ Kids: Everything To Know About Her 2 Adopted Children, Gemma & Wilson

To most people, Kristin Davis, 56, is best known as the fiercely optimistic and driven Charlotte York from Sex and the City and its new revival series, And Just Like That. But to her two children, daughter Gemma Rose Davis, 10, and son Wilson Davis, 3, Kristin is simply known as “Mom.” Both of Kristin’s kids are Black and adopted. The actress adopted Gemma in 2011, and then seven years later, she adopted Wilson. Kristin, who has never been married, has been proudly raising her two kids as a single woman while keeping them out of the spotlight. Below, everything you need to know about Kristin Davis’ children.

Kristin was around 46 years old when she adopted her daughter Gemma in mid-2011. She chose the middle name Rose for her baby girl — the same of her on-screen daughter in SATC and And Just Like That. However, that decision wasn’t intentional on Kristin’s behalf. “I had totally forgotten that on Sex and the City I also had a child named Rose and since I did this whole thing in secret, I didn’t talk to anybody about the naming or the adopting at all and I didn’t realize the connection,’ she told Anderson Cooper in a 2012 interview. “Then we announced and everybody was like, ‘Oh, she named her after her Sex and the City baby.’ I didn’t even consciously [realize it], not at all, not at all. I almost named her Rose as a first name because I kept thinking it’s such a beautiful name. Isn’t it weird? I think it was lodged unconsciously.”

In 2018, when Kristin was around 53 years old, she adopted her second child, son Wilson. The following year, she revealed on Live with Kelly and Ryan that Gemma “really wanted a brother” and “is such a great big sister, and she helps out.” Kristin also said that having a boy “is a very different thing” from raising a daughter. “You have to think about two different ages and what they need, which is totally different. So you have to think a lot.” – Source
