After Robert Downey, Jr. expressed that he would like to rekindle his friendship with ex-girlfriend Sarah Jessica Parker during an interview with Howard Stern on October 7, Sarah Jessica Parker's husband, actor Matthew Broderick, finally says his reply.

"I'll make a point of trying to see her while I'm here. I'd like to. I'll ask [Matthew Broderick] permission. I just want to check in for a few minutes," the "Iron Man" actor said.

Broderick, 52, said that he is okay with the two exes catching up. He expressed his openness to the two catching up in an interview with Us Magazine.

"Of course, he's more than [okay to connect her] -- they're great friends! What would I say? No? Who do you think I am? No, I love Robert Downey and Sarah Jessica Parker so [yes!]," Broderick said.

Sarah Jessica Parker, who most of us know fondly as Carrie Bradshaw from "Sex and the City," said she was on board as well. She told Us Magazine, "He and I have always been on wonderful terms so... of course I'm hospitable to that!"

Robert Downey, Jr. and Sarah Jessica Parker, who are now both 49, dated when they were 18 up until their mid-20's after they met on the set of "Firstborn" in 1984.

In their 7-year relationship, Sarah Jessica has tried herbiest to help Robert with his addiction to drugs and alcohol, but at that time, Downey, Jr. had a very difficult time staying sober. This ultimately led to their break up.

After 20 years since their split, the two are now happily married to their respective spouses. Downey, Jr. married producer Susan Levin and Sarah Jessica Parker has been married to Broderick for 17 years.
