Sarah Jessica Parker Shares Rare Photos of Her Twin Daughters on Their 17th Birthday — Photos

Marion, whose lighter blond hair is pulled into a messy ponytail, beams at the camera while pointing downward with one hand and holding the swing’s metal chain with the other. Beside her, Tabitha gazes curiously off into the distance, her dark hair gathered into small pigtails and a long fringe partially covering one eye, as tall trees and a grassy yard stretch out behind them.

Another snapshot captures Tabitha and Marion dressed for ballet class on the stoop of a New York townhouse. Wearing matching pale pink leotards, white tights, and red ballet slippers, Tabitha smiles gently at the camera with both feet planted on the ground while Marion strikes a playful pose by lifting one leg and resting a hand on her hip.

Tabitha casually drapes an arm over her sister’s shoulder, highlighting the close bond they have shared since childhood. In the background, a blurred yellow taxi speeds past, adding a distinctly New York touch to the charming scene.

One outdoor scene shows Tabitha and Marion walking hand in hand through a dry, grassy landscape beneath the shade of nearby trees. They wear matching striped pinafore-style dresses layered over long-sleeved tops, with Tabitha pairing hers with a mint-green shirt and Marion wearing a charcoal-gray one.

Tabitha’s dark hair is pulled into a small topknot, while Marion’s blond hair is gathered into a messy bun. Both glance back toward the camera with serious, slightly puzzled expressions, as though someone had just called their names in the middle of an adventure.

The final photograph brings Sarah Jessica back into the frame, posing between Tabitha and Marion when they were still young children.

Smiling warmly at the camera, she stands beside Tabitha, who wears a navy-blue dress patterned with white flowers and a Peter Pan collar while gazing directly into the lens with wide eyes.

On Sarah Jessica’s other side, Marion wears a white-and-red smocked dress and clutches a sparkling silver high-heeled shoe in her hands, looking off to the side with a more reserved expression that adds a candid touch to the family snapshot.

The never-before-seen images quickly prompted fans to weigh in on the twins’ resemblance to their famous parents. One admirer wrote, “Baby SJP and Baby Matthew! Genetics are wild!!! And these precious girls are gorgeous! Xx 😍😍”

Another commented, “They are perfect clones of you and Matthew! Happy Birthday to your beautiful girls!” A third person observed, “omg carbon copies of you and matthew [sic].”

“Both look like dad in different ways ❤️✌🏻♥️,” another follower remarked. Someone else shared, “One of them is like her mama and the other like her dad, happy birthday girls.💕” A sixth commenter added, “I’ve never seen your daughters and, my goodness, each is a spitting image of a parent. Beautiful! Happy Birthday to both.”

For a family that has long chosen privacy over publicity, Sarah Jessica’s birthday post felt unusually personal. And judging by the reactions, many followers appreciated not only the touching message but also the chance to watch Tabitha and Marion grow from playful toddlers into 17-year-olds who seem to carry unmistakable pieces of both Sarah Jessica and Matthew with them.

The birthday tribute wasn’t the first time Tabitha and Marion’s looks became a topic of conversation. Just months earlier, a rare public appearance by the twins had fans drawing the same conclusion — that one daughter is the image of Sarah Jessica, while the other appears to have inherited Matthew’s features.

Matthew and his wife, Sarah Jessica, turned heads as they attended the “SMASH” opening night on Broadway. The star-studded event took place on April 10, 2025, at the Imperial Theatre in New York City.

Making the evening even more special, the couple was joined by their twin daughters, Tabitha and Marion, who made a rare public appearance alongside their famous parents.

Their appearance at the Broadway premiere wasn’t just a family moment — it was a fashion statement that drew attention as soon as they arrived.

Matthew looked sharp in a navy blue suit, pairing it with a crisp white shirt and a patterned tie that added a dash of color. Standing beside him, one of the twins wore a rich teal dress with a front cutout, complemented by a powder-blue coat that added a pop of contrast.

Her sister chose a black lace dress with a sweetheart neckline, layered under a long cream-colored coat that gave her outfit a timeless flair. Sarah Jessica, known for her impeccable sense of style, stepped out in a black ensemble with subtle embellishments, her sleek, golden hair parted down the middle.

Together, the family posed gracefully for photos. The twins’ rare appearance quickly sparked online buzz, with many fans commenting that one daughter mirrors Matthew while the other bears a striking resemblance to Sarah Jessica.

The comments section soon lit up with reactions as the photos made their way online. “One looks like dad, one looks like mum [sic],” observed one fan, capturing the consensus. Another agreed, adding that it’s “Cute,” while a third exclaimed, “They look like each parent WOW!!”

Praises poured in, with one fan marveling, “What a gorgeous family!” and another admiring, “Look at their beautiful daughters.” Others pointed out the twins’ unique features, with one noting, “So weird how they are twins but look nothing alike.”

That wasn’t the first time the twins had made headlines alongside their parents. In November 2022, Sarah Jessica and Matthew walked the red carpet with Tabitha and Marion, marking another rare public appearance for the girls.

Just like their latest outing, that moment sparked another round of comparisons. Prevention magazine shared a snapshot of the trio on Facebook and captioned it, “They look just like their mom!”

But not everyone agreed. One person countered, “They look like their Dad!” Another followed with, “I see the father more.” Someone else weighed in with a different take, “Her son looks just like her; the girls look more like their dad.”

The conversation around the twins often brings up the rest of the close-knit family. Sarah Jessica and Matthew are also parents to their eldest child, James, born in October 2002.

After considering several paths, they viewed surrogacy as a meaningful and promising option. Speaking with Access Hollywood, the actress revealed, “Well, you know, we’ve been trying to expand our family for a number of years, and we actually have explored a variety of ways of doing so. This was one of the things we discussed with seriousness that had real possibilities for us,”

Because surrogacy can be uncertain, Sarah Jessica was asked if the road came with setbacks. She responded with honesty, “Yeah, I mean, I couldn’t pretend otherwise, adding:

“It would be a complicated – it would be odd to have made this choice if I was able to, you know, have successful pregnancies since my son’s birth.”

Her openness continued as she described how she felt upon hearing the news that she was expecting twins. “I mean, giggles!”

Sarah Jessica exclaimed, admitting the outcome caught her off guard. The veteran actress explained that she had tempered her hopes over time to shield herself from letdowns. While the thought of having one more child already felt like a gift, “two was a comedy!” she joked.

Marion and Tabitha arrived in June 2009, adding new joy to the family. Years later, Sarah Jessica revealed that she occasionally forgets they are twins, simply because of how different they are. In a February 2018 interview, she explained:

“They have different interests. They’re really devoted to each other, but they’ll also say, ‘I need time away from her.'”

Their closeness has never meant being inseparable — something both Sarah Jessica and Matthew have openly touched on.

Over time, it became clear that Tabitha enjoys quiet moments to herself, often spending hours alone, while Marion tends to check in now and then. At one point, they even went to different schools — a choice that, according to Sarah Jessica, came from Tabitha’s own wish for independence.

Matthew offered a glimpse into their evolving dynamic during a June 2023 episode of “LIVE with Kelly and Mark.” The father of three explained that the girls originally planned to attend separate high schools but later opted to stick together starting in 2024. He said, “They’re extremely close, but they also definitely want their own space, and their own friends, and their own time.”

From their rare red carpet appearances to their distinct personalities, Marion and Tabitha continue to captivate the public while carving their paths. Sarah Jessica and Matthew have embraced each step of their parenting journey with openness and humor, offering rare glimpses into their family life.

Though the Brodericks still value their privacy, Sarah Jessica Parker‘s birthday post proved that even a small glimpse into their family life is enough to leave a lasting impression.
