Kristin Davis Dating My King: Oscar-Winning Writer And Generally Flawless Human Aaron Sorkin

Charlotte York would totally approve of this one: Kristin Davis is dating writer Aaron Sorkin, multiple sources tell E! News.

"It's been going on for around six weeks," says a source. "They are really happy. They have actually known each other a while through mutual friends and would sometimes bump into one another at industry events, but it has only just turned into something more."

"He is obviously really smart...and Kristin is very intelligent, too," adds the source. "They have a lot to talk about."

The couple, who have both been open about past substance abuse struggles and their subsequent sobriety, have "been out quite a few times on both coasts," according to a source.

Sorkin, whose screenplay for The Social Network won an Oscar, has a 12-year-old daughter, Roxy, from a previous marriage. Davis, 47, adopted a baby girl, Gemma Rose, in 2011.

The 50-year-old West Wing creator was married to Julia Bingham from 1996 to 2005. He's also been romantically linked to Kristin Chenoweth.

Davis has never been married, and her rep declined to comment on her personal life. Besides the Sex and the City flicks, she recently starred in Journey 2: The Mysterious Island.

YAY, they seem like they'd be cute. I hope they're happy together. Sorkin is my God, forever and ever in the name of Josiah Bartlet, the Wrath high atop the Thing and Dan Rydell, alongside Casey McCall AMEN. Let's also all take a moment to appreciate his amazing commencement speech at Syracuse the other day:


PS - This post, like any of the Sorkin-related posts I make, is to be taken as an excuse for a West Wing party post. For all four of the ONTDrs who are fans of the show.

I remember back when I wasted my time hating Charlotte and couldn't see past her husband hunter antics. She's probably one of my faves now.
__nocturna 24th-May-2012 08:16 pm (UTC)
ugh I hate Charlotte
sullen_child 24th-May-2012 09:10 pm (UTC)
what changed your mind?
ichdontthinksoo 25th-May-2012 06:18 pm (UTC)
Mostly because I realized how fun she was to watch. And while I don't agree with her views on marriage/her need for it, I admire her for never giving up on what she wanted. Like Carrie wrote when she dedicated her book to Charlotte, she always believed in love and I found that really sweet.

ia when i first watched SATC i hated her but with each marathon viewing binge i find myself loving her more
tobiveil12 24th-May-2012 11:46 pm (UTC)
I stopped liking her when she slut shamed Sam. In fact all the girls except Miranda slut shamed Sam( and she put them in their place)
minds_been_lost 24th-May-2012 08:12 pm (UTC)

Remember those nudes that leaked of her treating a dick like a lollipop? And her full bush? Good times.

LMAO I watch that shit often just to LOL at it. It's the little "shut up" after she mentions Studio 60 and the Angry Birds advice that gets me e'ery time
sparkfactory 24th-May-2012 08:17 pm (UTC)
he spoke at my graduation b/c we gave him an honorary doctorate. the other person receiving an honorary doctorate was a 90 year old woman, and when my dbag school president was making this poor old lady stand FOREVER while he rattled off a list of things she's done, aaron sorkin actually got up and asked her if she was okay/needed to sit down and it was super qt.
lokiyan 24th-May-2012 08:18 pm (UTC)

mrphotograph3r 24th-May-2012 08:19 pm (UTC)
I just graduated from SU and he was HILARIOUS at commencement. Made getting up at 8AM a little less difficult..
kewljules00799 24th-May-2012 08:23 pm (UTC)
this might be sort of creepy, but i've re-watched his speech at your commencement, like, 11 times at least.
lonely_goatherd 25th-May-2012 12:19 am (UTC)
EW @ 8AM, but, fuck, I'd stay up all night if it meant Sorkin in the morning

that. is. adorable.
They are well-matched in their upper crustiness.
treebraids 24th-May-2012 08:20 pm (UTC)
I just finished re-watching sports night and I can't believe how much they lost the plot in season 2. Bringing in William H. Macy and killing off the chemistry between Felicity and whatshis face. They brought it together towards the end but it was too late.
_underwhelmed 24th-May-2012 09:52 pm (UTC)
totally, william h macy's character was the kiss of death for that show imo..ugh i wish it had lasted longer

Oh, you mean you didn't like Dana's epic dating plan?

That fucking dating plan.

I love this post. This is a good couple.
alpherg 24th-May-2012 08:23 pm (UTC)
I like it.
okgoawaynow 24th-May-2012 08:24 pm (UTC)
i actually just started watching the West Wing this week and holy shit, where has this show been all my life?

/obsessed
kewljules00799 24th-May-2012 08:28 pm (UTC)
Stick with it, even through season 5. You gotta watch the whole thing, even though there are certain aspects of the post-Sorkin seasons which I refuse to acknowledge.
seemsobscene 24th-May-2012 08:32 pm (UTC)
see i just finished, and i watched 1-4 in like a month and a half, and then watched 5,6,7 by kinda jumping around...nothing ever compared to the first four seasons though!
cruel_april 24th-May-2012 08:36 pm (UTC)
I must say, I am on my first viewing of the show - best show ever ever ever with Breaking Bad, The Wire and Buffy - and now that I'm on s7, I find myself skipping scenes/entire episodes. Why? BECAUSE NO WAY WITH THE TONY THING. NO. NO NO NO NO NO. HE WOULD *NEVER*.
lonely_goatherd 25th-May-2012 01:43 pm (UTC)
yeah, season 5 seems like an interminable desert, but just keep on going it gets better
executivehpfan 24th-May-2012 08:47 pm (UTC)
GURL WAIT UNTIL SEASON 2. JUST. FUCKING. WAIT.

WELCOME TO THE PARTY.
ronsypooie 24th-May-2012 09:58 pm (UTC)
that is all i've been watching in my spare time. i'm up to season 3 now. i'm glad i waited to watch it though. i wouldn't have appreciated/understood it any earlier than now hah
soho 24th-May-2012 10:17 pm (UTC)
I'm sorry about season 7 in advance.
lonely_goatherd 25th-May-2012 12:20 am (UTC)
It's a revelationnnnnnn, isn't it? So damn good. I can't wait to rewatch again.
heart_iswild 24th-May-2012 08:25 pm (UTC)
my dad's family grew up with the sorkins and aaron used to be besties with my aunt before she passed away. he was really sweet and used to send us free theater tickets all the time lol
