Sarah Jessica Parker’s stepfather has died. Paul Giffin Forste was 76.<\/p>\n

“Our family is sad to announce that after an unexpected and rapid illness, Paul Giffin Forste passed away yesterday at age 76,” Parker’s family said in a statement to Fox News Digital.<\/p>\n

“In his last moments he was surrounded with the love and gratitude of his adored wife Barbara of 54 years, and children, including Sarah Jessica Parker.”<\/p>\n

“Paul will be remembered with the spirit of loving kindness which was his faith, his special delight in his 13 grandchildren, and his sustained belief in making the world a more charitable, tolerant, and beautiful place for all,” the statement concluded.<\/p>\n

The “Sex and the City” star was expected to be honored at the New York City Ballet’s 10th annual Fall Fashion Gala; however, a rep for Parker confirmed to Fox News Digital she didn’t make it to the event at all.<\/p>\n

The 57-year-old actress currently serves as the vice chair of the board of directors and created the first Fall Fashion Gala back in 2012, helping to raise more than $24 million for the organization since, according to Page Six. <\/p>\n

The news of Forste’s death came after it was reported that Parker missed the event due to a reported “sudden devastating family situation.”<\/p>\n
