Sarah married her former Cutting It co-star James Murray on December 15, 2007. (edit) As of late 2007, Sarah is pregnant and expecting her first child. (edit) Sarah Parish plays Katie in "Mistresses", which is a sexy, sophisticated and bold take on the lives of four women and their involvement in an array of illicit and complex relationships.She is the rock of the group and a respected GP, her friends think she is a long-term singleton, but she is secretly grieving over the loss of a terminally ill patient with whom she has been having a two year affair. Katie's carefully constructed existence is threatened when his son, Sam, arrives at her work with a note from his father's lover, determined to find out who she is.
(edit) For her role in Recovery Sarah agreed to do a nude scene. However, she claims she wouldn't normally strip-off if it was merely gratitious, but only for the sake of the plot. (edit) Sarah has experimented within her profession recently, departing from acting to direct a BBC drama about fertility, entitled Baby Boom. (edit)

Sarah:(On Mistresses) I know it's crazy but I couldn't get my head around the fact that I was going to be in something called Mistresses. It wasn't until I saw the finished product that I went, 'Actually, I'm very proud to be in that.' I think it's a great piece of work. (edit) Sarah: (On planning a wedding) You do find yourself becoming Monica from Friends. I have a big file on everything, and I've become slightly anal about things. I know way too much about flowers and veils. (edit) Sarah: Obviously in my dreams I'd love to meet somebody who I fall in love with, and have a baby. But if it doesn't happen, it doesn't happen. I'm not going to be one of those girls who go, 'Well I'm just going to have to stick with you then.' There's no point going for second-best. (edit) Sarah: I think of acting as either feeling freezing cold or boiling hot, exhausted and sat in a stinky caravan with a cup of tea in a polystyrene cup. (edit) Sarah:(On children)There's never going to be the right time, the perfect nine months when you finish a job and get pregnant the next day and then say 'What a stroke of luck I don't start my next job for another ten months!'
You just have to make it work. People have been making it work for millions of years so I don't see why I can't when the time is right.
