Though she has maintained this precedent for privacy, in 2019, Cattrall shared how the experience impacted her everyday life. "I think recently the thing that has taught me the most is loss," she said. "I've lost two family members and I think what it teaches me, I'm not there yet, but to really enjoy what you do, your family, your friends, to really appreciate … when I say goodbye to somebody I'm not going to see for a while." The other individual Cattrall lost was her father Dennis, who died of Alzheimer's Disease in 2012. The National Suicide Prevention Hotline can be reached at 800-273-8255.
