Charlotte York (formerly Charlotte York MacDougal, later Charlotte York Goldenblatt) is a fictional character, one of the four main characters who appeared on the HBO-produced television series Sex and the City, both Sex and the City films, and the revival series And Just Like That.... She is portrayed by actress Kristin Davis, who received two Screen Actors Guild Awards for her performance.
Charlotte is portrayed as the most conservative and traditional of the main cast friend group. She continuously places more emphasis on an emotional connection than a lustful one, however episode-long relationships and her first marriage show the audience sex is still a priority to her. Charlotte is a goal oriented romantic and is on her own personal quest for her "knight in shining armor." Presenting a more straightforward attitude about relationships, usually based upon "The Rules" of love and dating, she often scoffs at the lewder, more libertine antics that the show presents (primarily from Samantha).
