In a new interview with ET's Melissa Rivers, Sarah Jessica Parker spoke about her return to TV in the recently announced HBO half-hour comedy series, DIVORCE. Watch the video courtesy of ET!

Explained the actress, "It was an area of particular interest for me because I'm married, and I love being married, and I'm happily married."

She continues, "I think marriage is wonderfully complicated and wonderfully interesting, and everybody conducts their marriage differently. We know almost nothing about people's marriage, because even those who we're most intimate with in friendships, we don't always share the good or the bad. And I just think that at a certain point, some people feel alone and lost."

DIVORCE tells "the story of a very, very drawn-out divorce," including Parker's character, "Frances, a woman who suddenly reassesses her life and marriage and realizes that a fresh start is much harder than she thought." Thomas Haden Church, Molly Shannon and Talia Balsam will also star.

Parker served as a producer and reprised her Emmy Award-winning role as Carrie Bradshaw in the screen adaptation of the hit HBO series "Sex and the City," followed by the theatrical release of "Sex and the City 2." She won over critics and audiences alike in the series for which she was awarded a Golden Globe Award for Best Actress in 2000, 2001, 2002 and 2004, as well as a Screen Actors Guild Award in 2001.

Her Broadway credits include Once Upon a Mattress, How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying and the original production of Annie.
