Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick's twin daughters, Loretta and Tabitha, turned 17 on June 22.
The Sex and the City actress celebrated them with an Instagram carousel of never-before-seen photos.
Parker and Broderick are also parents to son James Wilkie, who graduated from Brown University in 2025.
Sarah Jessica Parker is celebrating double the love and the memories.
The Sex and the City star posted a carousel of nine never-before-seen photos in tribute to her twin daughters with Matthew Broderick, Loretta and Tabitha, as they turned 17 on Monday.
In the first image, the fraternal twins are playing in a pool with near-identical inflatable floats: a pink flamingo for Tabitha and golden swan for Loretta.
Swiping through the rest of the personal snapshots, the sisters are seen over the years enjoying ice cream cones on a New York City stoop, hugging, sharing a swing, practicing ballet, and posing with their famous mother backstage at Cinderella on Broadway.
"Today you are 17," SJP captioned her Instagram ode. "And wise. And good. And happy. And beautifully finding your way. And funny. And devoted friend. And beloved daughters. Happy birthday dearest Loretta and Tabitha. With admiration and every ounce of my love. XXX, Mama."
Tabitha Hodge and Marion "Loretta" Elwell were born on June 22, 2009, nearly seven years after SJP and the Ferris Bueller's Day Off actor welcomed eldest son James Wilkie. Despite the trio's famous parents, the youngest Brodericks have managed to mostly stay out of the spotlight, except for public family gatherings like a January 2026 book launch for composer Marc Shaiman.
SJP has said the twins have "different interests," although they share their mother's appreciation of fashion.
When she showed Tabitha and Loretta her December 2021 cover of Vogue, decked out in a Dolce & Gabbana ball gown, they were speechless.

"Both my daughters' hands went to their mouths and they were like, 'You're on the cover of Vogue?' I didn't know they were aware of Vogue," the Just Like That... actress recalled to the magazine in 2022. "So, that was very touching to me."
While her teen daughters "like clothing," it doesn't preoccupy their lives, SJP told W Magazine in 2025.
"They definitely have ideas about how they want to feel and look when they walk out the door, but they don't seem particularly distracted [by it]," she said.

As for son James, he's following in the footsteps of both his parents.
In February 2025, a few months before his graduation from Brown University, he made a guest appearance alongside his father on an episode of the CBS comedy-drama Elsbeth, a spinoff of The Good Wife.

"I was so proud and happy to work with my son James," Broderick told PEOPLE. The actor played an educational consultant and shared a scene with James, whose character was a top "success trainer" at his company.
"What a thrill it was to work side by side with my dad — who also happens to be my favorite actor," James gushed. "The whole experience of working on Elsbeth was beyond exciting and I am very grateful to the producers for giving me this opportunity!"
