The Hocus Pocus star and her husband Matthew welcomed James in October 2002, followed by their twin daughters via surrogate in 2009.
She recently spoke openly about her children in April during an appearance on the Ruthie’s Table 4 podcastand explained why she doesn’t impose any restrictions on her children when it comes to food.
“When I was growing up, we weren’t allowed to have sugar in the house, and we weren’t allowed to have cookies, and we weren’t allowed to have chocolate. And of course, the only thing we did, once we left the house, was buy Entenmann’s pies and cookies.”
“So in our house, we have cookies, we have cake. We have everything,” the star said. “And I think that makes for a healthier relationship.”

“When I had my daughters, I didn’t want them to have an adversarial relationship with food. I didn’t want them to feel like food was their enemy and that they had to take a stand on food.”
Regarding her own dietary choices over the years, Parker said, “I was never very disciplined about it. I just wasn’t.”
“I guess I’m not really good at denying myself anything, and I also think, I was a dancer for so long and I was running around, so I could be like that. It’s definitely not the same now.”
Shortly before leaving for Paris, Sarah is busy filming the third season of the HBO MAX series And Just Like That.
