Kristin Davis’s Holy Trip

Graphic by Angelie Zaslavsky
Has playing the role of Charlotte York — the quintessential WASP who converts to Judaism for her husband, Harry Goldenblatt — influenced the real life of actress Kristin Davis? Perhaps. The “Sex and the City” co-star made her first trip to the Holy Land this month to promote Israel’s Ahava skincare products. Davis, 43, toured the Old City of Jerusalem and, at a press conference, expressed her admiration of Israeli women for their confidence, fashion sense and lack of pretense, The Associated Press reported.
