Sarah Jessica Parker may have said a final goodbye to her Carrie Bradshaw alter-ego after the conclusion of And Just Like That, but at least she has a huge support network to comfort her.

Not only does the Sex and the City star have three children and a supportive husband in Matthew Broderick, but she also has a whopping seven siblings, many of whom are involved in the entertainment industry.

Sarah's mom and dad, Stephen and Barbra, welcomed four children during their marriage: Timothy, Sarah, Pippin, and Rachel. After their divorce, Barbra married Paul Forste in 1969, and they welcomed four children: Megan, Aaron, Andrew, and Allegra.

Her parents struggled to support such a large family, and at times, growing up, the electricity got shut off, and they would forgo Christmases and birthdays.

But Sarah "wouldn't change any of it, for anything ... for the most part, we had everything we needed. Not always, but for the most part." 

Meet Sarah's seven siblings below.

Rachel Parker

Sarah's sister Rachel is one of her few siblings who has foregone a career in entertainment, despite appearing in The Sound of Music with her siblings in 1977. Instead, she's a physician's assistant.

The actress has a lot of respect for her sister's work, as she told Oprah: "My sister Rachel, who's a physician's assistant and a really decent person. She specializes in heart surgery. No one mentions her name in a newspaper, but she literally saves people's lives all day long."
