Well, how about that.

After all of the pining and upheaval, the dreaming and heartbreak, And Just Like that delivered a major development in its most recent episode, Present Tense.

The saga of Carrie and Aidan, which has been rumbling on for quite some time now, has drawn to a close because they are officially no more.

"We knew we were building toward an end for them — as painful as that was," said writer Julie Rottenberg in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter.

"And we all agreed... that you didn’t want a replay of something that cost them their relationship in the past. We wanted it to be systemic; that almost baked into the DNA of their relationship is this wound they can’t escape."

Speaking to TV Insider about what else viewers can expect for the original trio Carrie, Charlotte and Miranda this season, showrunner Michael Patrick King said: "It’s just where they are on this road – where Miranda is after the last tumultuous two seasons for her, where Charlotte is with her family and going back to work.

"And we have Carrie working a new chapter of her life in the way she writes. She’s actually going to write a book this year and go back to voiceovers.

"The important thing when you’re doing a series is to keep going forward. Even if you have to push through walls to get into new rooms, you just don’t want to stay in the same room because the audience has already been there for many years, right?"

Alongside Carrie, Miranda and Charlotte, a number of characters have also returned for season 3, including Seema, Lisa and Anthony. But who else is joining them? And what else have you seen them in?

Read on for a rundown of the major players and key guest stars in And Just Like That season 3.

Who is Carrie Bradshaw? Our protagonist, published author and former resident sex columnist, our style-conscious heroine Carrie suffered an unthinkable tragedy in season 1 when her husband Mr Big (real name John) died.

In season 2, as the weight of her grief began to lift, Carrie dipped her toe back into the dating scene, but she ended up rekindling her romance with Aidan. However, their relationship hit a stumbling block when his son Wyatt began acting out in his absence. So, he's currently living in Virginia, for the next five years, apparently, until his child has acclimatised, while Carrie is rolling around the huge New York townhouse that she bought for the two of them alone.

But at least she has her friends and the new book that she's writing to keep her occupied. Plus, it looks like one of her new neighbours takes a liking to her. Watch out Aidan. When the cat's away...

Where have I seen Sarah Jessica Parker before? She's best known for her award-winning stint as Carrie Bradshaw, but you might also recognise her from the likes of The Family Stone, Hocus Pocus, Glee, Divorce and The First Wives Club.

Who is Miranda Hobbes? When we first met Miranda in season 1 of AJLT, she was still a lawyer and still married to Steve. But she decided to leave behind her high-powered career to embark on a Master's degree in human rights, as well as leaving her husband for stand-up comedian Che Diaz.

In season 2, Miranda was still with Che, but eventually they decided to go their separate ways and she's now navigating the queer dating scene. Miranda is also working as a lawyer for Human Rights Watch.

Who is Charlotte York? Former gallerist and mother-of-two, Charlotte is blue-blooded and conservative, preferring a string of pearls over a personalised gold necklace (à la Carrie). But she's also probably the character who grew and changed the most over the course of the original series, setting aside her aspirations for what she thought of as a picture-perfect, fairytale romance and family when she fell in love with divorce lawyer Harry, for whom she converted to Judaism.

In And Just Like That, she is the proud mother of Lily (Cathy Ang), an overachiever, and Rock (Alexa Swinton), who came out as non-binary, which Charlotte found challenging at first but has since embraced. She continued to micromanage her kids' lives in season 2, but eventually took a step back when she became a working woman once again after taking a job in a very hip and happening gallery.

Where have I seen Kristin Davis before? Davis is best known for her role as Charlotte York, but she's also appeared in the likes of Journey 2: The Mysterious Island, Bad Teacher and Deck the Halls. And for those who've been rewatching classic sitcoms over lockdown, you'll spot her in cameo roles on the likes of Friends, Seinfeld, and Will & Grace.

But Aidan and Kathy have since parted ways and he's now in a long-distance relationship with Carrie. Can they make it work?
