US actor Chris Noth, famous for his role as ‘Mr Big’ on Sex & The City, is in Ireland to research his Irish ancestry.
The Hollywood star, who is also known for Law & Order and The Good Wife, travelled to Cavan today to look into his family’s past.
His great great grandfather is from the town, and he has been posing with pictures with locals since they spotted him dining in the Farnham Arms hotel and visiting the local library.
It is thought that the Wisconsin native is filming a ‘Who Do You Think You Are’-style television show for an American production company, but he has previously spoken about his love for the Emerald Isle.
Coincidentally, his former SATC co-star Sarah Jessica Parker, who played his other half Carrie, has also been visiting Ireland recently, proclaiming that she would move here with her family if she could.
