Sex and the City<\/em> creator Candace Bushnell has filed for divorce from her husband of nine years, ballet dancer Charles Askegard.<\/p>\n

In court papers, Bushnell, 53, claims Askegard had an affair, according to the New York Post<\/em><\/a>, with ballerina Georgina Pazcoguin. The two have worked with the New York City Ballet for the past eight years.<\/p>\n

In a statement about the divorce, Bushnell said of Askegard<\/a>, “We had some wonderful times in our nine-year marriage, and I still care about Charles as a person. I respect his desire to pursue his own happiness and hope that we will continue to be friends in the future.” <\/p>\n

But Bushnell may not have known about the affair at the time of the initial divorce filing.<\/p>\n

“The divorce was proceeding amicably, then Candace found out about Georgina and became very upset,” sources tell the Post<\/em>. “She believes their affair could have gone on for some time. Humiliated, it was her idea to take the unusual step of naming Georgina as a co-respondent in the divorce papers.”<\/p>\n

Askegard left the New York City Ballet in October to form his own company. He and Pazcoguin performed together at the 2011 Alzheimer’s Association Rita Hayworth Gala later that month.<\/p>\n

Bushnell and Aksegard were married in 2002<\/a>.<\/p>\n
